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

The goal of the study was to develop and test an automated short message service (SMS) and web service platform using CareSignal for remote symptom monitoring in a diverse population of patients with cancer. Twenty-eight patients with cancer undergoing radiotherapy were recruited at the start of their treatment regimen. Patients received a weekly SMS symptom survey to assess the severity of the side effects they experienced from treatment. An assessment of patient perceptions of the system in terms of patient-provider communication, feasibility, and overall satisfaction was conducted, finding overall good compliance in a sick patient population and patient willingness to engage with the software in the future.
