Integrated Polymeric Sensors in Heart and Blood Vessel Monitoring: A Review.
Review in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. 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
This paper presents recent progress (2019-2025) in the role of polymer-based sensors implemented for heart and blood vessel monitoring. The existing variety of polymers, of synthetic and natural origin, allows the creation of sensors tailored to specific needs, to monitor heart health status for invasive cardiovascular surgery. Polymers, in combination with nanomaterials, nanostructures, or nanostructured materials, enhance the characteristics of force sensors. The review discusses implantable sensors applied in healthcare, especially for cardiovascular system monitoring, which provide the possibility to prevent the development of pathology or to control existing pathology. Additionally, the emerging need for biodegradable devices requires a review of the polymers already used. The quality and accuracy requirements of sensors for self-monitoring and health status control in medical institutions vary; yet needing a variety of sensors does not reduce the importance of finding sensors that are more accurate or more comfortable to wear. Sensors suitable for short-term use become important in the postoperative period, with the need for biodegradable polymers. This review focuses on publications that provide an analysis of the sensors as well as their potential for medical purposes. Our review focuses on polymers applied to force sensors for cardiovascular system monitoring. Overall, this review explores the paths of innovations in the field of novel technologies for self-monitoring of health. Finally, future research directions reported in the selected articles for cardiovascular care sensors are discussed.
