Mobile messaging and smartphone apps for patient communication and engagement in spine surgery.
Review in Annals of translational medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
Mobile health (mHealth) applications are rapidly becoming increasingly available to patients. These interventions utilize simple mobile messaging (SMS) and software applications on mobile devices for a variety of purposes. In the surgical population mHealth applications have shown promise in increasing medication and protocol adherence, monitoring patients after surgery, and helping modify behaviors associated with poor surgical outcomes. There is a paucity of spine specific applications at this time. Further development and study of efficacy of spine specific mHealth applications is needed.
