Speckle Vibrometry for Instantaneous Heart Rate Monitoring.
Article in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Instantaneous heart rate (IHR) has been investigated for sleep applications, such as sleep apnea detection and sleep staging. To ensure the comfort of the patient during sleep, it is desirable for IHR to be measured in a contact-free fashion. In this work, we use speckle vibrometry (SV) to perform on-skin and on-textile IHR monitoring in a sleep setting. Minute motions on the laser-illuminated surface can be captured by a defocused camera, enabling the detection of cardiac motions even on textiles. We investigate supine, lateral, and prone sleeping positions. Based on Bland-Altman analysis between SV cardiac measurements and electrocardiogram (ECG), with respect to each position, we achieve the best limits of agreement with ECG values of [-8.65, 7.79] bpm, [-9.79, 9.25] bpm, and [-10.81, 10.23] bpm, respectively. The results indicate the potential of using speckle vibrometry as a contact-free monitoring method for instantaneous heart rate in a setting where the participant is allowed to rest in a spontaneous position while covered by textile layers.
