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

Deep learning (DL) has greatly contributed to bioelectric signal processing, in particular to extract physiological markers. However, the efficacy and applicability of the results proposed in the literature is often constrained to the population represented by the data used to train the models. In this study, we investigate the issues related to applying a DL model on heterogeneous datasets. In particular, by focusing on heart beat detection from electrocardiogram signals (ECG), we show that the performance of a model trained on data from healthy subjects decreases when applied to patients with cardiac conditions and to signals collected with different devices. We then evaluate the use of transfer learning (TL) to adapt the model to the different datasets. In particular, we show that the classification performance is improved, even with datasets with a small sample size. These results suggest that a greater effort should be made towards the generalizability of DL models applied on bioelectric signals, in particular, by retrieving more representative datasets.
