IoT in Healthcare: Achieving Interoperability of High-Quality Data Acquired by IoT Medical Devices.
Article in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 papers.
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
It is an undeniable fact that Internet of Things (IoT) technologies have become a milestone advancement in the digital healthcare domain, since the number of IoT medical devices is grown exponentially, and it is now anticipated that by 2020 there will be over 161 million of them connected worldwide. Therefore, in an era of continuous growth, IoT healthcare faces various challenges, such as the collection, the quality estimation, as well as the interpretation and the harmonization of the data that derive from the existing huge amounts of heterogeneous IoT medical devices. Even though various approaches have been developed so far for solving each one of these challenges, none of these proposes a holistic approach for successfully achieving data interoperability between high-quality data that derive from heterogeneous devices. For that reason, in this manuscript a mechanism is produced for effectively addressing the intersection of these challenges. Through this mechanism, initially, the collection of the different devices' datasets occurs, followed by the cleaning of them. In sequel, the produced cleaning results are used in order to capture the levels of the overall data quality of each dataset, in combination with the measurements of the availability of each device that produced each dataset, and the reliability of it. Consequently, only the high-quality data is kept and translated into a common format, being able to be used for further utilization. The proposed mechanism is evaluated through a specific scenario, producing reliable results, achieving data interoperability of 100% accuracy, and data quality of more than 90% accuracy.
