Using Deep-Learning Algorithms to Simultaneously Identify Right and Left Ventricular Dysfunction From the Electrocardiogram.

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.
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
objectivesThis study sought to develop DL models capable of comprehensively quantifying left and right ventricular dysfunction from ECG data in a large, diverse population.
backgroundRapid evaluation of left and right ventricular function using deep learning (DL) on electrocardiograms (ECGs) can assist diagnostic workflow. However, DL tools to estimate right ventricular (RV) function do not exist, whereas those to estimate left ventricular (LV) function are restricted to quantification of very low LV function only.
methodsA multicenter study was conducted with data from 5 New York City hospitals: 4 for internal testing and 1 serving as external validation. We created novel DL models to classify left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) into categories derived from the latest universal definition of heart failure, estimate LVEF through regression, and predict a composite outcome of either RV systolic dysfunction or RV dilation.
resultsWe obtained echocardiogram LVEF estimates for 147,636 patients paired to 715,890 ECGs. We used natural language processing (NLP) to extract RV size and systolic function information from 404,502 echocardiogram reports paired to 761,510 ECGs for 148,227 patients. For LVEF classification in internal testing, area under curve (AUC) at detection of LVEF ≤40%, 40% < LVEF ≤50%, and LVEF >50% was 0.94 (95% CI: 0.94-0.94), 0.82 (95% CI: 0.81-0.83), and 0.89 (95% CI: 0.89-0.89), respectively. For external validation, these results were 0.94 (95% CI: 0.94-0.95), 0.73 (95% CI: 0.72-0.74), and 0.87 (95% CI: 0.87-0.88). For regression, the mean absolute error was 5.84% (95% CI: 5.82%-5.85%) for internal testing and 6.14% (95% CI: 6.13%-6.16%) in external validation. For prediction of the composite RV outcome, AUC was 0.84 (95% CI: 0.84-0.84) in both internal testing and external validation.
conclusionsDL on ECG data can be used to create inexpensive screening, diagnostic, and predictive tools for both LV and RV dysfunction. Such tools may bridge the applicability of ECGs and echocardiography and enable prioritization of patients for further interventions for either sided failure progressing to biventricular disease.
