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

Aims: Multiparametric remote monitoring of patients with heart failure (HF) has the potential to mitigate the health risks of lockdowns for COVID-19. We aimed to compare healthcare use, physiological variables, and HF decompensations during 1 month before and during the first month of the first French national lockdown for COVID-19 among patients undergoing remote monitoring. Methods and results: Transmitted vital parameters and data from cardiac implantable electronic devices were analysed in 51 patients. Medical contact was defined as the sum of visits and days of hospitalization. The lockdown was associated with a marked decrease in cardiology medical contact (118 days before vs. 26 days during, -77%, Conclusions: The lockdown restrictions caused a marked decrease in healthcare use but no significant change in the clinical status of HF patients under multiparametric remote monitoring.
