A focus on the assessment of the autonomic function using heart rate variability.
Review in Global cardiology science & practice, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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 variability (HRV), the variation in the time interval between successive heartbeats, has emerged as a method to evaluate autonomic function and is increasingly accepted as a biomarker reflecting the balance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system (SNS and PNS, respectively) branches. Since 1996, most HRV measurements have been performed according to the Task Force standards of the European Society of Cardiology and the North American Society of Pacing and Electrophysiology. However, despite the established guidelines and growing body of research on HRV, this technique has not been fully incorporated into routine clinical practice. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the different aspects of HRV measurement, highlighting the fundamental principles, available methods, and physiological basis of HRV assessment to elucidate its role in understanding autonomic function in normal and abnormal health conditions.
