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

backgroundVarious sensor technologies have been developed to monitor the health of older adults; however, most of them require attachment to the skin. This study aimed to develop a health monitoring system, using a non-adhesive, non-invasive polyvinylidene difluoride piezoelectric sensor, with the patient being able to lead a normal daily life without being conscious of the sensor. The vibration signal from the human body surface obtained by the piezoelectric sensor, which is a ballistocardiography signal, contains information on the person's heart and respiratory rates. We propose a method that enables individual identification based on the characteristics of the frequency components of the signal.

methodsSignals from ten subjects were acquired and a neural network was constructed, trained, and tested using 252 cases to identify five individuals, based on assuming the number of people in a household.

resultsThe classification probability and accuracy rate were obtained for all 252 cases, and good classification rates were obtained in almost all cases.

conclusionsAlthough it will be necessary to consider daily changes in such signals in the future, the system had good identification accuracy when five individuals were identified.
