The B-Score is a novel metric for measuring the true performance of blood pressure estimation models.
Article in Scientific reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
We aimed to develop and test a novel metric for the relative performance of blood pressure estimation systems (B-Score). The B-Score sets absolute blood pressure estimation model performance in contrast to the dataset the model is tested upon. We calculate the B-Score based on inter- and intrapersonal variabilities within the dataset. To test the B-Score for reliable results and desired properties, we designed generic datasets with differing inter- and intrapersonal blood pressure variability. We then tested the B-Score's real-world functionality with a small, published dataset and the largest available blood pressure dataset (MIMIC IV). The B-Score demonstrated reliable and desired properties. The real-world test provided allowed the direct comparison of different datasets and revealed insights hidden from absolute performance measures. The B-Score is a functional, novel, and easy to interpret measure of relative blood pressure estimation system performance. It is easily calculated for any dataset and enables the direct comparison of various systems tested on different datasets. We created a metric for direct blood pressure estimation system performance. The B-Score allows researchers to detect promising trends quickly and reliably in the scientific literature. It further allows researchers and engineers to quickly assess and compare performances of various systems and algorithms, even when tested on different datasets.
