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

Congestive heart failure (CHF), a progressive and complex syndrome caused by ventricular dysfunction, is difficult to detect at an early stage. Heart rate variability (HRV) was proposed as a prognostic indicator for CHF. Inspired by the success of 2-D UNet++ in medical image segmentation, in this paper, we introduce an end-to-end encoder-decoder model to detect CHF using HRV signals. The developed model enhances the UNet++ model with Squeeze-and-Excitation (SE) residual blocks to extract deep features hierarchically and distinguish CHF patients from normal subjects. Two open-source databases are utilized for evaluating the proposed method, and three segment lengths of intervals between successive R-peaks are employed in comparison with state-of-the-art methods. The proposed method achieves an accuracy of 85.64%, 86.65% and 88.79% when 500, 1000 and 2000 RR intervals are utilized, respectively. It demonstrates that HRV evaluation based on deep learning can be an important tool for early detection of CHF, and may assist clinicians in achieving timely and accurate diagnoses.
