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

Paradoxical splitting occurs when pulmonic valve (P2) closes before the aortic valve (A2). This causes second heart sound (S2) to be a single sound during inspiration and split during exhalation. Etiology delay in aortic closure: aortic stenosis, volume overload of left ventricle (LV), conduction defects in LV, and left bundle branch block (LBBB). In this article, a method was proposed in early detection of a reverse in the appearance of A2 and P2 within S2. This method is based on the time-frequency maps obtained with the continuous wavelet transform (CWT), namely, the Meyer wavelet. A number of patients with LBBB and others with fitted pacemakers were studied. The above method is combined with the support vector machine (SVM) and performance of this method is evaluated using classification accuracy (Ca), sensitivity (Se), specificity, positive, and negative predicted values. Results show that it is relatively easy to detect the reverse in A2 and P2 and the Ca and Se is 90.97 and 94.44%, respectively, for the sample of 42 patients whose data were collected from the Cardiology Department at Brighton and Sussex University Hospital in England.
