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

A dynamic L-cube polynomial is proposed to analyze dynamic three-dimensional pulse images (d3DPIs), as an extension of the previous static L-cube polynomial. In this paper, a weighted least squares (WLS) method is proposed to fit the amplitude C(t) of d3DPI at four physiological key points in addition to the best fit of L-cube polynomials to the measured normal and cold-pressor-test (CPT)-induced taut 3DPIs. Compared with other two fitting functions, C(t) of a dynamic L-cube polynomial can be well matched by the proposed WLS method with the least relative error at four physiological key points in one beat with statistical significance, in addition to the best fit of the measured 3DPIs. Therefore, a dynamic L-cube polynomial can reflect dynamic time characteristics of normal and CPT-induced hypertensive taut 3DPIs, which can be used as an evidence of hypertension diagnosis.
