Elbow Joint Stiffness Functional Scales Based on Hill's Muscle Model and Genetic Optimization.
Article in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The ultimate goal of rehabilitation engineering is to provide objective assessment tools for the level of injury and/or the degree of neurorehabilitation recovery based on a combination of different sensing technologies that enable the monitoring of relevant measurable variables, as well as the assessment of non-measurable variables (such as muscle effort/force and joint mechanical stiffness). This paper aims to present a feasibility study for a general assessment methodology for subject-specific non-measurable elbow model parameter prediction and elbow joint stiffness estimation. Ten participants without sensorimotor disorders performed a modified "Reach and retrieve" task of the Wolf Motor Function Test while electromyography (EMG) data of an antagonistic muscle pair (the triceps brachii long head and biceps brachii long head muscle) and elbow angle were simultaneously acquired. A complete list of the Hill's muscle model and passive joint structure model parameters was generated using a genetic algorithm (GA) on the acquired training dataset with a maximum deviation of 6.1% of the full elbow angle range values during the modified task 8 of the Wolf Motor Function Test, and it was also verified using two experimental test scenarios (a task tempo variation scenario and a load variation scenario with a maximum deviation of 8.1%). The recursive least square (RLS) algorithm was used to estimate elbow joint stiffness (
