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

In-situ sensing of feedback actuator offers spatiotemporal consistency of tele-haptic interactions and self-monitoring haptic feedback. Leveraging haptic actuator for fine teleoperation is also worth for investigation. Here, we report a soft tactile chip made by in-situ fabrication of sensor in actuator structure, which is featured by both haptic and thermal sensing and feedback. This chip consists of silicone based pneumatic actuator arrays with two elastomeric membranes which contain liquid metal micro channels, and pectin-based temperature sensor. In-situ sensing of tactile chip enables self-adaptive pneumatic haptic feedback via quantitative data compared to subjective test. In addition to direct haptic feedback during gross teleoperation stage, a concept of reverse haptic feedback allows finger micro-motions from leader side to be directly projected into follower side for manipulating target object during fine teleoperation stage. In general, the proposed device can be applied as modular component to realize mutual tactile perception and micro manipulations.
