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

Driven by the demands of intelligent manufacturing, medical rehabilitation, and human-robot collaboration, anthropomorphic dexterous hands have become a key direction for complex manipulation. This paper reviews their evolution from structural biomimetics to intelligent control, emphasizing structural optimization, task generalization, and perception-control coupling. First, it summarizes structural design principles, including structural parameterization, underactuated and compliant mechanisms, functional materials, and multimaterial fabrication. Second, it reviews perception technologies, including angle and strain sensing, tactile and pressure detection, and compact vision-tactile fusion modules. Third, it compares classical model-based control, data-driven learning control, and hybrid model-data control, with attention to sample efficiency, robustness, and transferability. Finally, it discusses deployment-oriented strategies, including modular design, standardized interfaces, integrated packaging, and unified communication frameworks for hardware-software coordination. In summary, this paper establishes a system-level technical framework for dexterous hand development and deployment, organized around 4 tightly coupled dimensions: structural embodiment, multimodal perception, control, and deployment-oriented integration. By clarifying the interactions and constraints across these dimensions, the paper provides a system-level basis for the design, evaluation, and deployment of dexterous hands in complex manipulation and human-robot collaboration.
