The Reality of a Head-Mounted Display (HMD) Environment Tested via Lightness Perception.
Article in Journal of imaging, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Head-mounted displays (HMDs) are becoming more and more popular as a device for displaying a virtual reality space, but how real are they? The present study attempted to quantitatively evaluate the degree of reality achieved with HMDs by using a perceptual phenomenon as a measure. Lightness constancy is an ability that is present in human visual perception, in which the perceived reflectance (i.e., the lightness) of objects appears to stay constant across illuminant changes. Studies on color/lightness constancy in humans have shown that the degree of constancy is high, in general, when real objects are used as stimuli. We asked participants to make lightness matches between two virtual environments with different illuminant intensities, as presented in an HMD. The participants' matches showed a high degree of lightness constancy in the HMD; our results marked no less than 74.2% (84.8% at the maximum) in terms of the constancy index, whereas the average score on the computer screen was around 65%. The effect of head-tracking ability was confirmed by disabling that function, and the result showed a significant drop in the constancy index but that it was equally effective when the virtual environment was generated by replay motions. HMDs yield a realistic environment, with the extension of the visual scene being accompanied by head motions.
