1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

In this paper, we propose a noise-robust pulse wave estimation method from near-infrared face video images. Pulse wave estimation in a near-infrared environment is expected to be applied to non-contact monitoring in dark areas. The conventional method cannot consider noise when performing estimation. As a result, the accuracy of pulse wave estimation in noisy environments is not very high. This may adversely affect the accuracy of heart rate data and other data obtained from pulse wave signals. Therefore, the objective of this study is to perform pulse wave estimation robust to noise. The Wiener estimation method, which is a simple linear computation that can consider noise, was used in this study. Experimental results showed that the combination of the proposed method and signal processing (detrending and bandpass filtering) increased the SNR (signal to noise ratio) by more than 2.5 dB compared to the conventional method and signal processing. The correlation coefficient between the pulse wave signal measured using a pulse wave meter and the estimated pulse wave signal was 0.30 larger on average for the proposed method. Furthermore, the AER (absolute error rate) between the heart rate measured with the pulse wave meter was 0.82% on average for the proposed method, which was lower than the value of the conventional method (12.53% on average). These results show that the proposed method is more robust to noise than the conventional method for pulse wave estimation.
