Telemonitoring via Questionnaires Reduces Outpatient Healthcare Consumption in Parkinson's Disease.
Article in Movement disorders clinical practice, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05164783 (Multicenter Implementation of E-monitoring in Parkinson's Disease), which is not on this map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundParkinson's disease (PD) is best managed by neurologists, traditionally including frequent doctor-patient contact. Because of a rise in PD prevalence and associated healthcare costs, this personnel-intensive care may not be future proof. Telemedicine tools for home monitoring have shown to reduce healthcare consumption in several chronic diseases and also seem promising for PD.
objectiveTo explore whether telemonitoring can reduce outpatient healthcare consumption in PD.
methodsWe conducted a cohort study with 116 outpatients with PD who used the telemedicine tool "myParkinsoncoach." The tool involved periodic monitoring, feedback, knowledge modules, and text message functionality. Retrospective data about PD-related healthcare consumption in the year before and after introduction of the tool were retrieved from the hospital information system. Additional data about tool-related activities performed by nursing staff were logged prospectively for 3 months.
resultsThere was a 29% reduction in the number of outpatient visits (
conclusionsStudy results demonstrate a significant reduction in PD-related healthcare consumption using telemonitoring. Notably, these results were also found in elderly patients. Further research is needed to confirm these findings, preferably taking a broader perspective on healthcare consumption and within a larger, multicenter and prospective setup.
