1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) enables contactless heart rate monitoring but remains vulnerable to motion and lighting changes. We address this by reframing heart rate estimation as a heartbeat detection problem, bypassing the need to reconstruct full blood volume pulse signals. Our approach, HBP-Net, predicts heartbeat probability directly from facial video using a spatiotemporal attention architecture, improving robustness while reducing computational complexity. Evaluated across multiple datasets-including a new motion-challenged benchmark-HBP-Net achieves competitive accuracy under static conditions and maintains performance as motion increases. This shift from signal reconstruction to probabilistic event detection offers a conceptually simpler and more resilient framework for rPPG. The method advances the feasibility of reliable, camera-based vital sign monitoring in real-world settings such as telehealth, fitness tracking, and continuous patient assessment.
