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

Long term electrocardiogram (ECG) signals recorded in an intensive care unit (ICU) are often corrupted by severe motion and noise artifacts (MNA), which may lead to many false alarms including inaccurate detection of atrial fibrillation (AF). We developed an automated method to detect MNA from ECG recordings in the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC) III database. Since AF detection is often based on identification of irregular RR intervals derived from the QRS complexes, the main design focus of our MNA detection algorithm was to identify corrupted QRS complexes of the ECG signals. The MNA in the MIMIC III database contain not only motion-induced noise, but also a plethora of non-ECG waveforms, which must also be automatically identified. Our algorithm is designed to first discriminate between ECG and non-ECG waveforms using both time and spectral-domain properties. For the segments of data containing ECG waveforms, a time-frequency spectrum and its sub-band decomposition approach were used to identify MNA, and high frequency noise ECG segments, respectively. The algorithm was tested on data from 35 subjects in normal sinus rhythm and 25 AF subjects. The proposed method is shown to accurately discriminate between segments that contained real ECG waveforms and those that did not, even though the latter were numerous in some subjects. In addition, we found a significant reduction (> 94%) in false positive detection of AF in normal subjects when our MNA detection algorithm was used. Without using it, we inaccurately detected AF owing to the MNA.
