Air-Coupled Ultrasound Systems for Biomedical Applications: Advances in Sensors, Electronic Interfaces and Signal Processing Strategies.
Review in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Air-coupled ultrasound (ACU) is emerging as a fully non-contact sensing modality in biomedical applications. ACU applications can be broadly classified into two main domains: (i) contactless monitoring of physiological parameters and (ii) assistive aids, robotic perception in unstructured real-world environments, enabling tracking and geometric reconstruction. Advances in electronic materials and sensor design have enhanced ultrasonic sensor characteristics (e.g., bandwidth, directivity, and intensity). In parallel, progress in front-end electronics and signal processing, including artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted analysis, has enhanced ACU performance under low signal-to-noise (SNR) conditions. This review focuses on low-frequency ACU systems, with emphasis on sensor technologies, electronic interfaces, and system architectures that enable non-contact biomedical and robotic applications.
