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

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common atrial arrhythmia that impairs quality of life and causes embolic stroke, heart failure and other complications. Recent advancements in machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) have shown potential for enhancing diagnostic accuracy. It is essential for DL models to be robust and generalizable across variations in ethnicity, age, sex, and other factors. Although a number of ECG database have been made available to the research community, none includes a Japanese population sample. Saitama Heart Database Atrial Fibrillation (SHDB-AF) is a novel open-sourced Holter ECG database from Japan, containing 128 ECG with detailed clinical information from 122 unique patients. Each record in SHDB-AF is 24 hours long and has two channels, totaling 21.6 million seconds of ECG data. The dataset is available at https://physionet.org/content/shdb-af/ .
