Design and Implementation of a Wearable Accelerometer-Based Motion/Tilt Sensing Internet of Things Module and Its Application to Bed Fall Prevention.
Article in Biosensors, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Accelerometer-based motion sensing has been extensively applied to fall detection. However, such applications can only detect fall accidents; therefore, a system that can prevent fall accidents is desirable. Bed falls account for more than half of patient falls and are preceded by a clear warning indicator: the patient attempting to get out of bed. This study designed and implemented an Internet of Things module, namely, Bluetooth low-energy-enabled Accelerometer-based Sensing In a Chip-packaging (BASIC) module, with a tilt-sensing algorithm based on the patented low-complexity COordinate Rotation DIgital Computer (CORDIC)-based algorithm for tilt angle conversions. It is applied for detecting the postural changes (from lying down to sitting up) and to protect individuals at a high risk of bed falls by prompting caregivers to take preventive actions and assist individuals trying to get up. This module demonstrates how motion and tilt sensing can be applied to bed fall prevention. The module can be further miniaturized or integrated into a wearable device and commercialized in smart health-care applications for bed fall prevention in hospitals and homes.
