A Single-Sensor Approach for Noninvasively Tracking Phase Velocity in Tendons during Dynamic Movement.
Article in Micromachines, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Shear wave tensiometry is a noninvasive method for directly measuring wave speed as a proxy for force in tendons during dynamic activities. Traditionally, tensiometry has used broadband excitation pulses and measured the wave travel time between two sensors. In this work, we demonstrate a new method for tracking phase velocity using shaped excitations and measurements from a single sensor. We observed modulation of phase velocity in the Achilles tendon that was generally consistent with wave speed measures obtained via broadband excitation. We also noted a frequency dependence of phase velocity, which is expected for dispersive soft tissues. The implementation of this method could enhance the use of noninvasive wave speed measures to characterize tendon forces. Further, the approach allows for the design of smaller shear wave tensiometers usable for a broader range of tendons and applications.
