Effects of 2 Interventions on the Acceptability and Usability of a Sensing Glove for Measuring Force-Time Characteristics of Chiropractic Spinal Manipulative Therapy: A Crossover Study.
Article in Journal of chiropractic medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Objectives: The objective of this study was to assess chiropractors' and chiropractic students' acceptability of a sensing glove system for measuring Spinal manipulative therapy (SMT) force-time characteristics and to compare the effectiveness of 2 interventions in improving their acceptability and perceived usability. Methods: Sixteen participants were recruited and initially rated their agreement with 12 statements about the acceptability of the sensing glove system. They then underwent 2 interventions designed to improve their acceptability of the system in a random order: a 7-minute informational video and a 20-minute supervised practice session. After each intervention, participants reassessed their agreement with the acceptability statements and provided feedback on the system's usability through 10 additional statements. Data analysis used McNemar and Cochran's Q tests to assess the interventions' effectiveness. Results: The practice session led to a significantly higher number of participants agreeing with 4 more acceptability statements than at baseline, and with 1 more statement than after the video intervention. Conversely, the video intervention showed an increased proportion of agreement for only 1 statement compared to the baseline. Furthermore, the practice session resulted in a higher proportion of participants agreeing with 2 usability statements compared to the video intervention. Conclusions: The study highlights the importance of supervised hands-on practice in enhancing the acceptability and willingness of chiropractors and chiropractic students to adopt a force-sensing system in their clinical practice.
