Flexible Smart Insole and Plantar Pressure Monitoring Using Screen-Printed Nanomaterials and Piezoresistive Sensors.
Article in ACS applied materials & interfaces, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Individuals experiencing gait dysfunction─such as the elderly, those with peripheral nervous system damage, or individuals with Parkinson's disease─face a heightened risk of physical injury due to imbalanced weight distribution. Despite recent advancements in wearable movement trackers, there remains a significant need for a reliable long-term plantar pressure monitoring system. While some existing devices measure pressure characteristics, many are hindered by limitations in spatial resolution, sensitivity, and the presence of bulky peripherals. Here, we introduce a flexible smart insole system that integrates screen-printed nanomaterials to create a high-density piezoresistive sensor array, enabling accurate plantar pressure measurement during daily activities. To ensure scalable and cost-effective manufacturing, we utilize a screen-printing method to fabricate 173 carbon-based sensors directly onto a flexible insole circuit. The printed sensors demonstrate a remarkable sensitivity of -0.322 kPa
