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

As an important auxiliary tool of arrhythmia diagnosis, Electrocardiogram (ECG) is frequently utilized to detect a variety of cardiovascular diseases caused by arrhythmia, such as cardiac mechanical infarction. In the past few years, the classification of ECG has always been a challenging problem. This paper presents a novel deep learning model called convolutional vision transformer (ConViT), which combines vision transformer (ViT) with convolutional neural network (CNN), for ECG arrhythmia classification, in which the unique soft convolutional inductive bias of gated positional self-attention (GPSA) layers integrates the superiorities of attention mechanism and convolutional architecture. Moreover, the time-reassigned synchrosqueezing transform (TSST), a newly developed time-frequency analysis (TFA) method where the time-frequency coefficients are reassigned in the time direction, is employed to sharpen pulse traits for feature extraction. Aiming at the class imbalance phenomena in the traditional ECG database, the smote algorithm and focal loss (FL) are used for data augmentation and minority-class weighting, respectively. The experiment using MIT-BIH arrhythmia database indicates that the overall accuracy of the proposed model is as high as 99.5%. Furthermore, the specificity (Spe), F1-Score and positive Matthews Correlation Coefficient (MCC) of supra ventricular ectopic beat (S) and ventricular ectopic beat (V) are all more than 94%. These results demonstrate that the proposed method is superior to most of the existing methods.
