The article discusses the importance of electrocardiogram (ECG) reading on clinical research and practice. It stresses that it is critical in data collection during clinical research with the investigational drug's cardiac safety profile, especially the interval duration measurements of heart activity, emphasizing ECG centralization. It suggests that relevance of the findings should also be associated with one's prior history and current health status.
