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

Aims: Artificial intelligence (AI)-based electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis tools have shown promise in detecting various cardiac conditions. However, their performance in specific patient populations, such as those with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), remains incompletely characterized. To evaluate the performance of three AI-based ECG analysis tools in patients with confirmed HCM: (1) a tool calculating HCM probability, (2) a tool calculating structural heart disease (SHD) probability, and (3) a tool providing ECG-based diagnoses across multiple categories. Methods and results: We analysed digitized 12-lead ECGs from patients with confirmed HCM ( Conclusion: AI-based ECG analysis tools demonstrated modest performance in our HCM cohort. These findings highlight the challenges of applying AI tools developed in general populations to specific disease cohorts and underscore the need for disease-specific validation before clinical implementation.
