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

Arterial compliance (AC) plays a crucial role in vascular aging and cardiovascular disease. The ability to continuously estimate aortic AC or its surrogate, pulse pressure (PP), through wearable devices is highly desirable, given its strong association with daily activities. While the single-site photoplethysmography (PPG)-derived arterial stiffness indices show reasonable correlations with AC, they are susceptible to noise interference, limiting their practical use. To overcome this challenge, our study introduces a noise-resistant indicator of AC: Katz's fractal dimension (KFD) of PPG signals. We showed that KFD integrated the signal complexity arising from compliance changes across a cardiac cycle and vascular structural complexity, thereby decreasing its dependence on individual characteristic points. To assess its capability in measuring AC, we conducted a comprehensive evaluation using both
