Maternal ECG-Guided Neural Network for Improved Fetal Electrocardiogram Extraction.
Article in Biomedical signal processing and control, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Historically, acquiring a reliable and accurate non-invasive fetal electrocardiogram has several significant challenges in both data acquisition and attenuation of maternal signals. These barriers include maternal physical/physiological parameters, hardware sensitivity, and the effectiveness of signal processing algorithms in separating maternal and fetal electrocardiograms. In this paper, we focus on the evaluation of signal-processing algorithms. Here, we propose a learning-based method based on the integration of maternal electrocardiogram acquired as guidance for transabdominal fetal electrocardiogram signal extraction. The results demonstrate that incorporating the maternal electrocardiogram signal as input for training the neural network outperforms the network solely trained using information from the abdominal electrocardiogram. This indicates that leveraging the maternal electrocardiogram serves as a suitable prior for effectively attenuating maternal electrocardiogram from the abdominal electrocardiogram.
