Telemedicine-Rehabilitation and Virtual Reality in Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine.
Review in Indian journal of orthopaedics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.
Who cites it
10 citing papers in PubMed, 1 synthesis or guideline pooled it, 21 citations in OpenAlex.

Abstract
Introduction: Tele-rehabilitation is a method of delivering rehabilitation services using information, technology and communication to everyone, irrespective of their geographic location. National zeal for competitive sports and COVID pandemic has led to an increase in its demand and popularity worldwide. The athletes need immediate treatment and correct rehabilitation to keep them in their game. This review aims to bring into perspective the importance of telemedicine and telerehabilitation in orthopaedics and sports medicine with a focus on virtual reality. Methods: Articles were searched based on suitable keywords 'telemedicine', 'telerehabilitation' 'orthopedics', 'orthopaedics', 'sports' and 'India*' which were combined using suitable boolean operators in PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science. Government guidelines and laws were also reviewed in view of telehealth and telemedicine. Conclusion: Tele-rehabilitation and virtual physical therapy are innovative and cost-effective ways to provide the best rehabilitative services to the patients at their doorstep. Virtual reality should be incorporated into the Indian telehealth delivering system with a special focus on the remote athlete population.
