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

Considering that soft airbag sensors made from soft materials are limited to detecting only normal forces, a novel PEBA-silicone composite magneto-sensitive airbag sensor is proposed for simultaneously detecting normal contact force and horizontal motion during human-robot interaction. In terms of structural design, the PEBA-silicone composite airbag is manufactured using fused deposition modeling, 3D printing, and silicone casting, achieving a balance between high airtightness and adjustable stiffness. Beneath the airbag, a magneto-sensitive substrate with several NdFeB magnets is embedded, while a fixed Hall sensor detects spatially varying magnetic fields to determine horizontal displacements without contact. The results of contact-force and motion experiments show that the proposed sensor achieves a force resolution of 20 g, a force range of 0 to 1100 g, a fitting sensitivity of 7.54 N/Pa, an average static stiffness of 4.82 N/mm, and a horizontal motion detection range of 0.125 to 1 cm/s. In addition, the prototype of the sensor is lightweight (with the complete assembly weighing 81.25 g and the sensing part weighing 56.13 g) and low-cost, giving it potential application value in exoskeletons and industrial grippers.
