Electrical Impedance Plethysmography Versus Tonometry To Measure the Pulse Wave Velocity in Peripheral Arteries in Young Healthy Volunteers: a Pilot Study.
Article in Journal of electrical bioimpedance, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06925139 (Efficacy of Non-Ablative Radiofrequency on Vaginal and Sexual Health in Postmenopausal Women), which is not on this map. Cited by 5 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.

Abstract
The leading cause of health loss and deaths worldwide are cardiovascular diseases. A predictor of cardiovascular diseases and events is the arterial stiffness. The pulse wave velocity (PWV) can be used to estimate arterial stiffness non-invasively. The tonometer is considered as the gold standard for measuring PWV. This approach requires manual probe fixation above the artery and depends on the skills of the operator. Electrical impedance plethysmography (IPG) is an interesting alternative using skin surface sensing electrodes, that is miniaturizable, cost-effective and allows measurement of deeper arteries. The aim of this pilot study was to explore if IPG can be a suitable technique to measure pulse wave velocity in legs as an alternative for the tonometer technique. The PWV was estimated by differences in the ECG-gated pulse arrival times (PAT) at the
