Non-invasive hemoglobin measurement using optical method.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. 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
The measurement of Hemoglobin (Hb) by the non-invasive method is gaining popularity. The system, consisting of a photodiode is placed in between a Red (630 nm) and an IR (940 nm) LED, along with the signal conditioning circuits. 10 healthy male (8) and female (2) volunteers in the age group between 21 and 24 were recruited for this study. During measurement, the fingertip of a volunteer was placed on the measurement pad. Visible and IR lights are switched ON one after the other. The optical absorbance of the blood component in the arteries was detected by the photodiode using the reflectance method. The current generated was converted into voltage and was processed to remove the noise associated with the signal. From this, the concentration of Hb of the volunteers was determined. On the same day they were taken to the clinical laboratory and Hb values were obtained by the standard invasive method. Hemoglobin values obtained from the two methods were compared and an accuracy of 96.31 % and correlation coefficient value of 0.932405 was achieved. From the Bland -Altman plot, the results obtained are within the confidence interval of 95 %. The error of 3 % can be reduced further by employing sophisticated signal conditioning techniques. The proposed non-invasive method took only a few seconds to find the hemoglobin concentration than the invasive lab test. This method can accelerate the decision-making process in emergency situations.
