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
The estimation of joint torque based on wearable sensors is an important content in human-robot interaction research. Despite existing joint torque estimation models providing high accuracy, their application in robotic control is limited due to the number of sensors and real-time output requirements. To address this issue, this paper establishes a knee joint torque estimation model driven by four electromyography (EMG) sensors and proposes a novel method for simplifying musculoskeletal models based on sensitivity analysis. To achieve this, this paper combines multiple advanced Hill-type muscle model components to establish a knee-joint musculoskeletal model that includes four major muscles and employs the genetic algorithm (GA) to identify the model parameters. Then, Sobol's global sensitivity analysis theory is used to analyze the influence of parameter variations on model outputs, and a sensitivity-based model simplification method is proposed. In addition, a lower-limb physical and biological signal collection experiment without ground reaction force is designed for parameter identification and sensitivity analysis. Finally, based on experimental data from several test subjects, the parameters of each individual's musculoskeletal model are identified and evaluated, and the sensitivity index of each parameter is calculated to determine the influence of the number of model parameters on the identification performance. The results indicate that the proposed musculoskeletal model can provide individuals with comparable normalized root mean square error (NRMSE) through parameter identification, and the sensitivity-based model simplification method is effective.
