Preprint.
No findings were extractable from the material analysed.
Safety was not reported in the material analysed. Check the source before drawing any conclusion about harm.
The source did not state who this applies to in practice.
Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.
This record has not been graded across any dimension yet. Treat the label above as provisional and read the source.
What is missing. This record has no bottom line, key findings, reported figures, evidence dimensions. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
Physicians read electrocardiograms (ECGs) from waveform shape and timing, yet accurate deep-learning classifiers rarely show which waveform regions drive their predictions. We introduce LYNX-ECG, a graph neural network that represents each heartbeat as a sparse visibility graph of timestamped turning points. On CODE-Test, LYNX-ECG reaches a macro F1 score of 0.889, outperforming five baselines including the ECGFounder foundation model, while its graphs need about 14% of the storage of graphs built from every sample. Because each node maps to a specific ECG time, we can delete clinically defined waveform regions and alter beat timing to audit predictions. For conduction disorders, the clinically expected region was the strongest evidence in more than 90% of correct predictions. Bradycardia and tachycardia calls follow heart rate with conduction intervals held fixed, and atrial fibrillation calls vanish when beat-to-beat variation is removed. Sparse visibility graphs thus pair accurate ECG classification with clinically grounded, testable explanations.
