Thermoforming 2D films into 3D electronics for high-performance, customizable tactile sensing.

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 demand for tactile sensors in robotics, virtual reality, and health care highlights the need for high performance and customizability. Despite advances in vision-based technologies, tactile sensing remains crucial for precise interaction and subtle pressure detection. In this work, we present a design and fabrication method of customizable tactile sensors based on thermoformed three-dimensional electronics. This approach enables ultrawide modulus tunability (10 pascals to 1 megapascal) and superior mechanical properties, including negligible hysteresis and high creep resistance. These features allow the sensor to detect a broad spectrum of pressures, from acoustic waves to body weight, with high performance. The proposed sensors have high sensitivity (up to 5884 per kilopascal), high linearity (
