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
Background: Implementing automated seizure detection in long-term electroencephalography (EEG) analysis enables the remote monitoring of patients with epilepsy, thereby improving their quality of life. Objective: The objective of this study was to explore an mHealth (mobile health) solution by investigating the feasibility of smartphones for processing large EEG recordings for the remote monitoring of patients with epilepsy. Methods: We developed a mobile app to automatically analyze and classify epileptic seizures using EEG. We used the cross-database model developed in our previous study, incorporating successive decomposition index and matrix determinant as features, adaptive median feature baseline correction for overcoming interdatabase feature variation, and postprocessing-based support vector machine for classification using 5 different EEG databases. The Sezect (Seizure Detect) Android app was built using the Chaquopy software development kit, which uses the Python language in Android Studio. Various durations of EEG signals were tested on different smartphones to check the feasibility of the Sezect app. Results: We observed a sensitivity of 93.5%, a specificity of 97.5%, and a false detection rate of 1.5 per hour for EEG recordings using the Sezect app. The various mobile phones did not differ substantially in processing time, which indicates a range of phone models can be used for implementation. The computational time required to process real-time EEG data via smartphones and the classification results suggests that our mHealth app could be a valuable asset for monitoring patients with epilepsy. Conclusions: Smartphones have multipurpose use in health care, offering tools that can improve the quality of patients' lives.
