A worldwide research overview of Artificial Proprioception in prosthetics.
Review in PLOS digital health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Proprioception is the body's ability to sense its position and movement, which is essential for motor control. Its loss after amputation poses significant challenges for prosthesis users. Artificial Proprioception enhances sensory feedback and motor control in prosthetic devices. This review provides a global overview of current research and technology in the field, emphasizing feedback mechanisms, neural interfaces, and biomechatronic integration. This work examines innovations in sensory feedback for amputees, including electrotactile and vibrotactile stimulation, artificial intelligence, and neural interfaces to enhance prosthetic control. The methodology involved reviewing studies from Scopus, Web of Science, and PubMed on prosthetic proprioceptive feedback from 2004 to 2024, evaluating sensory feedback research by author, country, and affiliation with a synthesis provided. Countries like the United States and Italy are collaborating to advance global research. The paper concludes with potential developments, such as advanced, user-centered prosthetics that meet amputees' sensory needs and significantly enhance their quality of life.
