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

Telemonitoring becomes more important in pulmonary research. It can be used to decrease the pressure on the health care system, to lower the costs of health care and to increase quality of life of patients. Previous studies show contradictory results regarding the effectiveness of telemonitoring. According to multiple researchers, inefficiency can be a result of poor study design, low data quality and usability issues. To counteract these issues, this review proves for an in-depth explanation of four (potential) telemonitoring systems in terms of work principle, accuracy, disturbing factors and usability. The evaluated systems are portable spirometry/breath-by-breath analyzers, respiratory inductance and magnetic plethysmography and electrical impedance tomography. These insights can be used to select the optimal technique for a specific purpose in future studies.
