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

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is frequently underdiagnosed. While deep learning (DL) models using raw electrocardiographic (ECG) voltage data can enhance detection, their use at the point-of-care is limited. Here we report the development and validation of a DL model that detects HCM from images of 12-lead ECGs across layouts. The model was developed using 124,553 ECGs from 66,987 individuals at the Yale New Haven Hospital (YNHH), with HCM features determined by concurrent imaging (cardiac magnetic resonance [CMR] or echocardiography). External validation included ECG images from MIMIC-IV, Amsterdam University Medical Center (AUMC), and UK Biobank, where HCM was defined by CMR (YNHH, MIMIC-IV, AUMC) and diagnosis codes (UK Biobank). The model demonstrated robust performance across image formats and sites (AUROCs: 0.95 internal testing; 0.94 MIMIC-IV; 0.92 AUMC; 0.91 UK Biobank). Discriminative features localized to anterior/lateral leads (V4-V5) regardless of layout. This approach enables scalable, image-based screening for HCM across clinical settings.
