Variation of peripheral pulse transit time with internal vascular pressure changes induced by arm movement.
Article in Frontiers in neuroscience, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Pulse transit time (PTT) and blood pressure (BP) are widely used to quantify arterial characteristics. Arm position influences arterial BP and peripheral PTT. This study aims to quantify the relationship between PTT changes with internal vascular pressure variations induced by the arm moving. With left arm at horizontal position as reference and the right arm moving from 90 to 45, 0, -45, and -90° respectively, PTT difference was calculated by the difference of the pulse foot between right arm and left arm within the same heartbeat. The change in the BP was calculated from the gravitational effect with the measured arm length. Our results showed that the change in PTT with arm elevating is more obvious than that with arm lowering, indicating the different relationship between PTT changes due to the internal BP changes. This can help in understanding the inherent physiological/pathological mechanism of cardiovascular system.
