Research & Evidence
OneRhythm is built on a public argument: the psychological toll of arrhythmia is measurable, widespread, and still waiting to be fully integrated into routine clinical care. This page surfaces the numbers, parses the data, and translates the evidence into plain language.

Research Translations
These translations start with the evidence and carry it into language anyone can carry with them. Each article is source-backed, reviewed, and explicitly non-diagnostic.
Research translation
A reviewed translation of the evidence base around anxiety, distress, and quality-of-life burden in arrhythmia populations.
Key finding
The literature does not treat anxiety, depression, hypervigilance, and distress around arrhythmias as edge cases. It shows them as recurring features of the lived burden.
Research translation
A first launch translation page that explains how OneRhythm handles reviewed research themes in plain language and without overclaiming certainty.
Key finding
At launch, OneRhythm uses research translation to carry reviewed findings into plain language without stripping away their seriousness or their limits.
Provenance Model
The current evidence registry is intentionally small. Every source has exact citation details and a clear reason to be here. Evidence should sharpen the story, not turn into filler.
Founder narrative
Explains why the project exists. It does not stand in for medical evidence.
Institutional references
Describe product boundaries, review workflows, educational architecture, and public promises.
Research translations
Help explain public themes without drifting into diagnosis, treatment advice, or sensationalism.
