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

Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is one of the main causes of death among people. A new methodology is presented for predicting the SCD based on ECG signals employing the wavelet packet transform (WPT), a signal processing technique, homogeneity index (HI), a nonlinear measurement for time series signals, and the Enhanced Probabilistic Neural Network classification algorithm. The effectiveness and usefulness of the proposed method is evaluated using a database of measured ECG data acquired from 20 SCD and 18 normal patients. The proposed methodology presents the following significant advantages: (1) compared with previous works, the proposed methodology achieves a higher accuracy using a single nonlinear feature, HI, thus requiring low computational resource for predicting an SCD onset in real-time, unlike other methodologies proposed in the literature where a large number of nonlinear features are used to predict an SCD event; (2) it is capable of predicting the risk of developing an SCD event up to 20 min prior to the onset with a high accuracy of 95.8%, superseding the prior 12 min prediction time reported recently, and (3) it uses the ECG signal directly without the need for transforming the signal to a heart rate variability signal, thus saving time in the processing.
