Use of Digital Health Technology in Heart Failure and Diabetes: a Scoping Review.
Article in Journal of cardiovascular translational research, 2023. 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
Use of digital health technologies (DHT) in chronic disease management is rising. We aim to evaluate the impact of DHT on clinical outcomes from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of patients with heart failure (HF) and diabetes mellitus (DM). Electronic databases were searched for DHT RCTs in patients with HF and DM until February 2021. Patient characteristics and outcomes were analyzed. One published (N = 519) and 6 registered (N = 3423) eligible studies were identified, with one study exclusively including HF and DM patients. Median DHT monitoring was 12 months, with six studies using mobile platforms as their key exposure. Clinical outcomes included quality-of-life or self-care surveys (n = 1 each), physical activity metrics, changes in biomarkers, and other clinical endpoints (n = 3). Limited data exist on RCTs evaluating DHT in patients with concomitant HF and DM. Further work should define standardized clinical endpoints and platforms that can manage patients with multiple comorbidities.
