Use of the CHA2DS2-VASc Score for Risk Stratification of Hospital Admissions Among Patients With Cardiovascular Diseases Receiving a Fourth-Generation Synchronous Telehealth Program: Retrospective Cohort Study.
Article in Journal of medical Internet research, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
backgroundTelehealth programs are generally diverse in approaching patients, from traditional telephone calling and texting message and to the latest fourth-generation synchronous program. The predefined outcomes are also different, including hypertension control, lipid lowering, cardiovascular outcomes, and mortality. In previous studies, the telehealth program showed both positive and negative results, providing mixed and confusing clinical outcomes. A comprehensive and integrated approach is needed to determine which patients benefit from the program in order to improve clinical outcomes.
objectiveThe CHA
methodsThis was a retrospective cohort study. We recruited patients with cardiovascular disease who received the fourth-generation synchronous telehealth program at the National Taiwan University Hospital between October 2012 and June 2015. We enrolled 431 patients who had joined a telehealth program and compared them to 1549 control patients. Risk of cardiovascular hospitalization was estimated with Kaplan-Meier curves. The CHA
resultsThe mean follow-up duration was 886.1 (SD 531.0) days in patients receiving the fourth-generation synchronous telehealth program and 707.1 (SD 431.4) days in the control group (P<.001). The telehealth group had more comorbidities at baseline than the control group. Higher CHA
