Variable Stiffness Fibers Enabled Universal and Programmable Re-Foldability Strategy for Modular Soft Robotics.
Article in Advanced science (Weinheim, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Origami is a rich source of inspiration for creating soft actuators with complex deformations. However, implementing the re-foldability of origami on soft actuators remains a significant challenge. Herein, a universal and programmable re-foldability strategy is reported to integrate multiple origami patterns into a single soft origami actuator, thereby enabling multimode morphing capability. This strategy can selectively activate and deactivate origami creases through variable stiffness fibers. The utilization of these fibers enables the programmability of crease pattern quantity and types within a single actuator, which expands the morphing modes and deformation ranges without increasing their physical size and chamber number. The universality of this approach is demonstrated by developing a series of re-foldable soft origami actuators. Moreover, these soft origami actuators are utilized to construct a bidirectional crawling robot and a multimode soft gripper capable of adapting to object size, grasping orientation, and placing orientation. This work represents a significant step forward in the design of multifunctional soft actuators and holds great potential for the advancement of agile and versatile soft robots.
