The Indiana fingerprint comparison database.
Article in Forensic science international. Synergy, 2026. 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
The Indiana Fingerprint Comparison Database is an open-source resource consisting of 513 image triplets of fingerprint images. Each triplet was assembled by a subject matter expert and consists of a latent impression, a mated exemplar livescan, and a non-mated exemplar livescan. The images have known ground truth and reflect many of the attributes of casework. A subset of 90 image triplets was tested in a black box study using 104 latent print examiners, and we provide response frequencies for each image pair using a 5-point response scale. We use an ordered probit model [1] to summarize the response distributions as a way of characterizing the strength of support for the same source proposition for each image pair and create likelihood ratios. The black box performance data and the freely-available images described here will support future research studies, laboratory training, validation, internal proficiency testing and calibration exercises.
