Laser spectroscopic method for remote sensing of respiratory rate.
Article in Physical and engineering sciences in medicine, 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
Noncontact sensing methods for measuring vital signs have recently gained interest, particularly for long-term monitoring. This study introduces a new method for measuring respiratory rate remotely. The proposed method is based on the reflection of a laser beam off a striped card attached to a moving platform simulating chest wall displacements. A wide range of frequencies (n = 35) from 0.06 to 2.2 Hz corresponding to both normal and pathological human respiratory rates were simulated using a moving mechanical platform. Reflected spectra (n = 105) were collected by a spectrometer in a dynamic mode. Fourier analysis was performed to retrieve the breathing frequency. The results show a striking agreement between measurements and reference frequencies. The results also show that low frequencies corresponding to respiratory rates can be detected with high accuracy (uncertainty is well below 5%). A validation test of the measuring method on a human subject demonstrated a great potential for remote respiration rate monitoring of adults and neonates in a clinical environment.
