1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 generation of pressure perturbations in matter stimulated by pulsed light is a method widely recognized as the photoacoustic or light-induced thermoelastic effect. In a series of psychophysical experiments, the robustness of the tactile perception generated with a variety of light sources is examined: a diverging pulsed laser used for photoacoustic tomography optical parameter oscillation (OPO), a miniature diode laser (MDL), and a commercial digital light processing (DLP) projector. It is demonstrated that participants can accurately detect, categorically describe the sensations, and discern the direction of pulsed light travel. High detection accuracy is reported as follows: (d' = 4.95 (OPO); d' = 2.78 (modulated MDL); d' = 2.99 (DLP)) of the stimulus on glabrous skin coated with a thin layer of dye absorber. For all light sources, the predominant sensation is felt as vibration at the distal phalanx (i.e., fingertip, 55.21-57.29%) and the proximal phalanx (41.67-44.79%). At the fingertip, thermal sensations are perceived less frequently than mechanical ones. Moreover, these haptic effects are preserved under a wide range of pulse widths, spot sizes, optical energies, and wavelengths of the light sources. This form of sensory stimulation demonstrates a generalizable non-contact, non-optogenetic, in situ activation of the mechanosensory system.
