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

Gesture recognition has demonstrated considerable potential for human-machine interaction, particularly in robotic control, virtual reality, and rehabilitation training. However, existing gesture-recognition methods often suffer from high cost, limited environmental adaptability, and insufficient precision, making high-performance sensing gloves difficult to realize. Here, we present a flexible resistive sensing glove fabricated by atomized spraying of liquid metal onto commercial rubber gloves, eliminating the need for substrate pre-treatment while forming uniform conductive circuits. A helical joint design enhances pressure responsiveness and amplifies resistance variation. The glove exhibits tensile strain above 230%, hysteresis below 0.04, a gauge factor of 3.05, rapid recovery within 0.24 s, and stable operation over 1200 cycles. Integrated with a wireless module, the system enables real-time gesture recognition and control of robotic hands and humanoid robot movements, demonstrating promise for shared human-machine interaction. This cost-effective and scalable strategy addresses key limitations of adaptive wearable interfaces and advances next-generation interactive systems.
