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

Remote vital sensing in veterinary medicine is a relatively new area of practice, which involves the acquisition of data without invasion of the body cavities of live animals. This paper aims to review several technologies in remote vital sensing: infrared thermography, remote photoplethysmography (rPPG), radar, wearable sensors, and computer vision and machine learning. In each of these technologies, we outline its concepts, uses, strengths, and limitations in multiple animal species, and its potential to reshape health surveillance, welfare evaluation, and clinical medicine in animals. The review also provides information about the problems associated with applying these technologies, including species differences, external conditions, and the question of the reliability and classification of these technologies. Additional topics discussed in this review include future developments such as the use of artificial intelligence, combining different sensing methods, and creating monitoring solutions tailored to specific animal species. This contribution gives a clear understanding of the status and future possibilities of remote vital sensing in veterinary applications and stresses the importance of that technology for the development of the veterinary field in terms of animal health and science.
