Structure function in photoplethysmographic signal dynamics for physiological assessment.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Physiological systems are inherently complex, driven by non-linear interactions among various subsystems that govern their function across diverse spatiotemporal scales. Understanding this interconnectedness is crucial; in this sense, the structure function enables us to dissect the dynamic intricacies of biological responses. By examining amplitude fluctuations across different timescales, we can gain valuable insights into the variability and adaptability of these vital systems. A structure function serves as an essential tool for uncovering long-term correlations that highlight self-organizing behavior. Additionally, it effectively examines the fractal characteristics of short-term signals influenced by the measurement noise often present in biological data. This paper presents a novel investigation into how various parameters of the structure function of the PhotoPlethysmoGraphic (PPG) signal can serve as reliable physiological biomarkers indicative of an individual's cardiorespiratory activity level. Preliminary tests on 40 students from the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM), all young and healthy individuals aged between 19 and 30, yielded promising results. These findings enhance our understanding of PPG signal dynamics from a physiological standpoint and provide a procedural framework for real-time patient monitoring and health assessment in clinical environments.
