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

Over the past 70 years, there was a rapid epidemiological transition in disease burden in China, from infectious disease to non-communicable diseases (NCDs), which requires long-term prevention and management. Rapid growth in mobile phone use, internet connectivity and digital health technology, presents new opportunities for improvement in NCD healthcare delivery and population-based outcomes. Although there were a growing number of research to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of the mobile health (mHealth) interventions for NCD management, the extent to which mHealth contributes towards the health system strengthening in China remains unknown. In this paper, we provided a high-level overview of mHealth in China and its role for Chinese health system strengthening. We conclude with several recommendations for the future of mHealth research in China based on existing evidence identified.
