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

backgroundHuman ether-à-go-go-related gene (hERG) potassium-channel block represents a harmful side effect of drug therapy that may cause torsade de pointes (TdP). Analysis of ventricular repolarization through electrocardiographic T-wave features represents a noninvasive way to accurately evaluate the TdP risk in drug-safety studies. This study proposes an artificial neural network (ANN) for noninvasive electrocardiography-based classification of the hERG potassium-channel block.

methodsThe data were taken from the "ECG Effects of Ranolazine, Dofetilide, Verapamil, and Quinidine in Healthy Subjects" Physionet database; they consisted of median vector magnitude (VM) beats of 22 healthy subjects receiving a single 500 μg dose of dofetilide. Fourteen VM beats were considered for each subject, relative to time-points ranging from 0.5 hr before to 14.0 hr after dofetilide administration. For each VM, changes in two indexes accounting for the early and the late phases of repolarization, ΔERD

resultsTest set area under the receiver operating characteristic was 0.91; sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and precision were 0.93, 0.83, 0.92, and 0.96, respectively.

conclusionOANN represents a reliable tool for noninvasive assessment of the hERG potassium-channel block.
