Seconds Matter: Rapid Non-Contact Monitoring of Heart and Respiratory Rate from Face Videos.
Article in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2026. 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
Accurate, non-contact vital-sign monitoring promises a scalable alternative to conventional sensors, yet low signal quality and long recording times have limited real-life adoption. We present a dual-modality system that combines Eulerian video magnified remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) from facial videos with optical flow-based shoulder tracking to estimate heart rate (HR) and respiratory rate (RR) from ultra-short 15 s recordings. With 200 participants, each providing 2 videos, 387 videos passed strict usability criteria, excluding flicker, blur, occlusion, and low illumination. For 15 s recordings, the HR estimates reached 98.5% accuracy within a ±10 beats per minute tolerance (MAE = 3.25, RMSE = 4.88, r = 0.93;
