A PPG Signal Dataset Collected in Semi-Naturalistic Settings Using Galaxy Watch.
Article in Scientific data, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The widespread adoption of consumer-grade wearable devices, such as Galaxy Watch, has revolutionized personal health monitoring as they enable continuous and non-invasive measurement of key cardiovascular indicators through photoplethysmography (PPG) sensors. However, existing datasets primarily rely on research-grade devices, limiting the applicability of consumer-grade wearables in real-world conditions. To address this gap, this study presents GalaxyPPG, a dataset collected from 24 participants that includes wrist-worn PPG signals from a Galaxy Watch 5 and an Empatica E4, alongside chest-worn ECG data from a Polar H10. Data were captured during diverse activities in a semi-naturalistic setting, providing insights into the sensing performance of consumer-grade wearables under motion- or stress-inducing activities. This dataset is designed to advance applications of PPG signals, such as HR tracking with diverse physical activities and HRV monitoring for stress detection. Additionally, we offer an open-source toolkit for data collection and analysis using Samsung Galaxy Watch, fostering reproducibility and further research leveraging this toolkit.
