Precordial Vibrations: A Review of Wearable Systems, Signal Processing Techniques, and Main Applications.
Review in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Recently, the ever-growing interest in the continuous monitoring of heart function in out-of-laboratory settings for an early diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases has led to the investigation of innovative methods for cardiac monitoring. Among others, wearables recording seismic waves induced on the chest surface by the mechanical activity of the heart are becoming popular. For what concerns wearable-based methods, cardiac vibrations can be recorded from the thorax in the form of acceleration, angular velocity, and/or displacement by means of accelerometers, gyroscopes, and fiber optic sensors, respectively. The present paper reviews the currently available wearables for measuring precordial vibrations. The focus is on sensor technology and signal processing techniques for the extraction of the parameters of interest. Lastly, the explored application scenarios and experimental protocols with the relative influencing factors are discussed for each technique. The goal is to delve into these three fundamental aspects (i.e., wearable system, signal processing, and application scenario), which are mutually interrelated, to give a holistic view of the whole process, beyond the sensor aspect alone. The reader can gain a more complete picture of this context without disregarding any of these 3 aspects.
