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.

Abstract

Background: Portable, smartphone-sized electrocardiography (ECG) has the potential to reduce time to treatment for patients suffering acute cardiac ischemia, thereby lowering the morbidity and mortality. In the UMC Utrecht, a portable, smartphone-sized, multi-lead precordial ECG recording device (miniECG 1.0, UMC Utrecht) was developed. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the ability of the miniECG to capture ischemic ECG changes in a porcine coronary occlusion model. Methods: In 8 animals, antero-septal myocardial infarction was induced by 75-minute occlusion of the left anterior descending artery, after the first or second diagonal. MiniECG and 12-lead ECG recordings were acquired simultaneously before, during and after coronary artery occlusion and ST-segment deviation was evaluated. Results: During the complete occlusion and reperfusion period, miniECG showed large ST-segment deviation in comparison to 12-lead ECG. MiniECG ST-segment deviation was observed within 1 minute for most animals. The miniECG was positive for ischemia (ie, ST-segment deviation ≥1 mm) for 99.7% (Q1-Q3: 99.6%-99.9%) of the occlusion time, while the 12-lead was only positive for 79.8% (Q1-Q3: 81.1%-98.7%) of the time ( Conclusions: MiniECG ST-segment deviation was observed early and was of large magnitude during 75 minutes of porcine transmural antero-septal infarction. The miniECG was positive for ischemia for the complete occlusion period. These findings demonstrate the potential of the miniECG in the detection of cardiac ischemia. Although clinical research is required, data suggests that the miniECG is a promising tool for the detection of cardiac ischemia.
