Telehealth in Multiple Sclerosis Clinical Care and Research.
Review in Current neurology and neuroscience reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07178834 (Impact of a Tele-rehabilitation Program on People With Multiple Sclerosis), which is not on this map. Cited by 15 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.

Abstract
purpose of reviewThe COVID-19 pandemic has provided us with a unique opportunity to experiment with telehealth and evaluate its benefits and limitations. This review discusses the impact of telehealth on multiple sclerosis (MS) care and research in adults and children. RECENT
findingsTelehealth visits for MS patients have been shown to reduce missed workdays and costs for patients. Brief telephone-based counseling may be associated with better adherence to disease-modifying therapy, although results of multiple home-based tele-rehabilitation for people with MS have been equivocal. Overall, patients and providers have reported high levels of satisfactions with telehealth. Several remote disability measures and numerous other technological tools have emerged for use in remote MS research and care. Major challenges of telehealth include limitations to performing a complete neurologic exam and disparities in access to telehealth amongst vulnerable populations with limited access to virtual platforms. Following the rapid expansion of telehealth during the pandemic, it is highly likely that we will continue to embrace the benefits of this valuable tool. Future directions for improving telehealth should include more evidence-based research on the diagnostic accuracy in neuroimmunology and reducing disparities in the access to telehealth.
