Is the Apple Vision Pro the Ultimate Display? A First Perspective and Survey on Entering the Wonderland of Precision Medicine.
Article in JMIR serious games, 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
At the Worldwide Developers Conference in June 2023, Apple introduced the Vision Pro. The Apple Vision Pro (AVP) is a mixed reality headset; more specifically, it is a virtual reality device with an additional video see-through capability. The video see-through capability turns the AVP into an augmented reality (AR) device. The AR feature is enabled by streaming the real world via cameras on the (virtual reality) screens in front of the user's eyes. This is, of course, not unique and is similar to other devices, such as the Varjo XR-3 (Varjo Technologies Oy). Nevertheless, the AVP has some interesting features, such as an inside-out screen that can show the headset wearer's eyes to "outsiders," and a button on the top, called the "digital crown," that allows a seamless blend of digital content with the user's physical space by turning it. In addition, it is untethered, except for the cable to the battery, which makes the headset more agile, compared to the Varjo XR-3. This could actually come closer to "The Ultimate Display," which Ivan Sutherland had already sketched in 1965. After a great response from the media and social networks to the release, we were able to test and review the new AVP ourselves in March 2024. Including an expert survey with 13 of our colleagues after testing the AVP in our institute, this Viewpoint explores whether the AVP can overcome clinical challenges that AR especially still faces in the medical domain; we also go beyond this and discuss whether the AVP could support clinicians in essential tasks to allow them to spend more time with their patients.
