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

Heart disease is a significant global health issue. Traditional methods for heart rate monitoring typically require close physical contact, which limits the continuity and convenience of monitoring. To achieve real-time, non-contact heartbeat monitoring, researchers have introduced millimeter-wave radar technology. The technology's penetration and privacy offer a potential solution for heart condition monitoring. Therefore, this study utilized frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar for heart rate monitoring. Firstly, the collected millimeter-wave radar signals were preprocessed to accurately locate the area of cardiac activity in the human body. Secondly, an adaptive variational mode decomposition (A-VMD) algorithm was designed to extract the heartbeat signal, considering signal variations caused by random body movements and respiration and their harmonics, to obtain an accurate heartbeat signal. Finally, the accurate heart rate is obtained by weighted estimation based on the harmonic relationship of the heartbeat signal. The study invited ten subjects to participate in the experiment to verify the effectiveness of this method. The results show that this method can reduce the influence of and random body movements and respiration and harmonics on heart rate monitoring, the average absolute error of heart rate estimation is less than four bpm.
