Non-Invasive Device for Blood Pressure Wave Acquisition by Means of Mechanical Transducer.
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 6 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
Blood pressure wave monitoring provides interesting information about the patient's cardiovascular function. For this reason, this article proposes a non-invasive device capable of capturing the vibrations (pressure waves) produced by the carotid artery by means of a pressure sensor encapsulated in a closed dome filled with air. When the device is placed onto the outer skin of the carotid area, the vibrations of the artery will exert a deformation in the dome, which, in turn, will lead to a pressure increase in its inner air. Then, the sensor inside the dome captures this pressure increase. By combining the blood pressure wave obtained with this device together with the ECG signal, it is possible to help the screening of the cardiovascular system, obtaining parameters such as heart rate variability (HRV) and pulse transit time (PTT). The results show how the pressure wave has been successfully obtained in the carotid artery area, discerning the characteristic points of this signal. The features of this device compare well with previous works by other authors. The main advantages of the proposed device are the reduced size, the cuffless condition, and the potential to be a continuous ambulatory device. These features could be exploited in ambulatory tests.
