Development of an upper limb passive exosuit for the 2023 ASTM Exo Games.

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
This paper presents the design of the passive upper limb exosuit that won the design competition in the 2023 ASTM Exo Games. The tasks were first analyzed to provide information about the requirements of the design. Then a design was proposed based on the HeroWear Apex exosuit but with improvements from the competition team members. The four tasks of the competition are discussed in detail, including good and poor execution practice. Experiments are performed to measure the forces generated in the elastic elements that support the back and the ones that support the arms. Flex tests are also discussed to show that the exosuit does not hinder the movement of the user in a meaningful way when it is switched off. The performance during the tasks is discussed and based on this and designs of competitors, improvements to the overall design are proposed for future versions.
