1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

In 2020 during the CoronaVirus Disease19 (COVID19) pandemic caused by da SARS-CoV-2, the weakness of e-health (electronic health) (ie the lack of direct contact between physician and patient) may prove to be a strength, given the high contagiousness and relative lethality of the virus. In Italy the lack of preparation for supporting the patient load (shortage of personal protection devices, shortage of Intensive Care Unit) beds in comparison with other European Countries, and the poor early diagnostic and therapeutic activity has led us to suggest a project that uses an online platform between General Practitioners and patients in order to reduce moving infected individuals and to perform the diagnosis and treatment early on.
