1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Vibration sensors are important in many engineering fields, including industry, surgery, space, and mechanics, such as for remote and autonomous driving. We propose a novel, cutting-edge vibratory sensor that mimics human tactile receptors, with a configuration different from current sensors such as strain gauges and piezo materials. The basic principle involves the perception of vibration via touch, with a cutaneous mechanoreceptor that is sensitive to vibration. We investigated the characteristics of the proposed vibratory sensor, in which the mechanoreceptor was covered either in hard rubber (such as silicon oil) or soft rubber (such as urethane), for both low- and high-frequency ranges. The fabricated sensor is based on piezoelectricity with a built-in voltage. It senses applied vibration by means of hairs in the sensor and the hardness of the outer cover. We also investigated two proposed parameters: the sensor response time to stimuli to the vibration aiding the equivalent firing rate (e.f.r.) and the gauge factor (
