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

Using artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques in healthcare applications has been actively researched over the last few years. It holds promising opportunities as it is used to track human activities and vital signs using wearable devices and assist in diseases' diagnosis, and it can play a great role in elderly care and patient's health monitoring and diagnostics. With the great technological advances in medical sensors and miniaturization of electronic chips in the recent five years, more applications are being researched and developed for wearable devices. Despite the remarkable growth of using smart watches and other wearable devices, a few of these massive research efforts for machine learning applications have found their way to market. In this study, a review of the different areas of the recent machine learning research for healthcare wearable devices is presented. Different challenges facing machine learning applications on wearable devices are discussed. Potential solutions from the literature are presented, and areas open for improvement and further research are highlighted.
