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 lack of reliable sensory input from prosthetic limbs limits transfemoral amputees' ability to perceive limb movement without visual monitoring. This study evaluated design parameters of a proposed forearm-based vibrotactile system in a pre-clinical, design-level perceptual evaluation, conveying prosthetic joint positions through patterned vibrations to provide non-invasive proprioceptive feedback. Healthy participants completed two experiments assessing detection of tactile cues from dual-actuator bands on the wrist and elbow representing assumed ankle and knee positions. The effects of temporal structuring (sequential vs. simultaneous stimulation), actuator configuration, amplitude and frequency settings, and signal duration on response accuracy were examined. Sequential vibrations produced significantly higher recognition accuracy than simultaneous presentation (72.4% vs. 42.7%,
