Article in Healthcare technology letters, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The objective of this study is to investigate factors influencing patients' continuance intention to use telemedicine after the COVID-19 pandemic in the medical sector of Kuwait. To reach this purpose, the updated Delone and Maclean (2003) model was utilized to investigate the aforementioned factors. As such, this research applied quantitative research methods with a sample of 290 participants from patients in Dar Al Shifa Hospital, a private hospital in Kuwait which utilizes telemedical services called 'Sehaty online'. The corresponding data was analyzed using SmartPLS. The findings of this study revealed that information quality and system quality have a positive and significant influence on patient's satisfaction, whereas service quality has an insignificant influence on patient's satisfaction. Also, patients' continuance intention to use telemedicine is found to be significantly impacted by their satisfaction. Furthermore, several limitations of the study, related future research, and recommendations have been discussed.
