Estimating very low ejection fraction from the 12 Lead ECG among patients with acute heart failure.
Article in Journal of electrocardiology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundIdentifying patients with low left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in the emergency department using an electrocardiogram (ECG) may optimize acute heart failure (AHF) management. We aimed to assess the efficacy of 527 automated 12‑lead ECG features for estimating LVEF among patients with AHF.
methodMedical records of patients >18 years old and AHF-related ICD codes, demographics, LVEF %, comorbidities, and medication were analyzed. Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) identified important ECG features and evaluated performance.
resultsAmong 851 patients, the mean age was 74 years (IQR:11), male 56 % (n = 478), and the median body mass index was 29 kg/m
conclusionsAn explainable machine learning model with physiologically feasible predictors may help screen patients with low LVEF in AHF.
