Teleconsent: A Novel Approach to Obtain Informed Consent for Research.
Article in Contemporary clinical trials communications, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 58 papers.
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.
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
Lack of recruitment of qualified research participants continues to be a significant bottleneck in clinical trials, often resulting in costly time extensions, underpowered results, and in some cases early termination. Some of the reasons for suboptimal recruitment include laborious consent processes and access to participants at remote locations. While new electronic consents technologies (eConsent) help overcome challenges related to readability and consent management, they do not adequately address challenges related to remote access. To address this, we have developed an innovative solution called "teleconsent", which embeds the informed consent process into a telemedicine session. Teleconsent allows a researcher to remotely video conference with a prospective research participant, display and interactively guide participants in real-time through a consent form. When finished, the researcher and participant can electronically sign the consent form and print or download the signed document for archiving. This process can eliminate challenges related to travel and management of personnel at remote sites. Teleconsent has been successfully implemented in several clinical trials. Teleconsent can improve research recruitment by reducing the barriers related to informed consent, while preserving human interaction.
