Telehealth Technology Application in Enhancing Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Adherence in Obstructive Sleep Apnea Patients: A Review of Current Evidence.
Review in Frontiers in medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common type of sleep-disordered breathing associated with multiple comorbidities. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the first choice for moderate-severe OSA but poor compliance brings a great challenge to its effectiveness. Telehealth interventions ease the follow-up process and allow healthcare facilities to provide consistent care. Fifth-generation wireless transmission technology has also greatly rationalized the wide use of telemedicine. Herein, we review the efficacy of the telehealth system in enhancing CPAP adherence. We recommend applying telemonitoring in clinical practice and advocate the development of a biopsychosocial telemedicine model with the integration of several interventions. Big databases and promising artificial intelligent technologies make clinical decision support systems and predictive models based on these databases possible.
