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
Compared to purely serial robots or cable-driven parallel robots (CDPRs), cable-driven hybrid robots (CDHRs) combine the advantages of both, addressing their limitations and enabling the execution of complex tasks. The series-parallel coupling structure increases the complexity of the system, complicating modeling, calibration, and force-closure workspace (FCW) analysis. This study develops a CDHR system equipped with various sensors and proposes methods for series-parallel coupling modeling, workspace analysis, and self-calibration of complex systems. First, the modular design requirements for the CDHR are analyzed, comprising an 8-cable parallel drive and a 4-degree-of-freedom serial manipulator. Second, a kinematic model of the CDHR with series-parallel coupling was derived, and the positions of the dynamic anchor seats were optimized using an optimization algorithm. Based on these optimized results, a modeling and analysis method for the statics and FCW is proposed. Furthermore, considering the complex and interdependent structural parameters of the system, a method for the self-calibration of the system parameters and trajectory planning for the CDHR is presented. Finally, experimental validation on both simulations and a physical prototype confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed methods. The developed prototype and the proposed method provide a basis for high-precision operations in large spaces, operations in dangerous/extreme environments, and automated operations in logistics/warehousing.
