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

Objective: To examine the effectiveness of Quality Control Circles (QCC)in remote Electrocardiography (ECG) network management, with a particular focus on evaluating their impact on improving operational standardization. Methods: Electrocardiogram data from Qingdao Central Hospital was selected as the research subject. Among them, 402 cases collected from January to April 2024 were before the implementation of QCC activities, and 356 cases collected from January to April 2025 were after the implementation of QCC activities. The irregularity rates of the electrocardiogram data between the two groups were compared. By establishing QCC teams, issues related to non-standardized operations at the 12-lead ECG acquisition endpoints were analyzed, and targeted improvement measures were developed. Results: Following QCC implementation, the non-compliant operation rate at 12-lead ECG collection endpoints within the network system significantly decreased, from 17.66% to 6.17% (P<0.05), After QCC activities, members' team spirit, QC techniques, mental development, communication and coordination, activity confidence, responsibility and honorall show positive improvement. Conclusion: QCC activities can effectively standardize ECG network operational procedures, enhancing the level of operational standardization and reducing the risk of misdiagnosis and missed diagnoses caused by non-standardized operations, thereby demonstrating clinical application value.
