Validity of the Polar H10 for Continuous Measures of Heart Rate and Heart Rate Synchrony Analysis.
Article in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Heart rate (HR), a non-invasive indicator of physiological arousal and autonomic nervous system engagement, is widely used in cognitive and affective sciences to monitor individual responses and interpersonal synchrony in dynamic emotional and social contexts. Recent advances in wearable sensors have enabled researchers to assess HR synchrony in ecologically valid settings. In this study, we replicate prior validations of the Polar H10 chest strap for individual HR measurement and extend these findings by evaluating its validity for measuring HR synchrony between individuals. Dyads completed a previously validated experimental task designed to elicit HR fluctuations while jointly attending to emotionally evocative, 5-min audiovisual stimuli. First, we observed high correspondence (Pearson's
