Effectiveness of eHealth therapeutic education interventions in the management of fibromyalgia: protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Article in BMJ open, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
introductionNon-pharmacological approaches have shown promising results in improving symptoms and quality of life of patients with fibromyalgia. However, these approaches may not be easily accessible or feasible for everyone. eHealth interventions may offer a more convenient and cost-effective approach to reach a wider range of patients with fibromyalgia and improve their outcomes. As eHealth tools become more prevalent in clinical practice, it is crucial to understand their effectiveness, limitations and how they can be integrated into standard care to optimise clinical outcomes. This systematic review aims to evaluate the effectiveness of eHealth therapeutic education interventions in managing fibromyalgia. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: Randomised controlled trials including eHealth therapeutic education interventions for individuals ≥18 years old with fibromyalgia, published in English or Spanish, will be retrieved by searching the databases PubMed, CINAHL Plus, EMBASE, Scopus, ISI Web of Science, PsycINFO and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials. Covidence software will be used for the selection of studies and data extraction. The risk of bias and the certainty of evidence will be assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias Assessment tool. We plan to perform a meta-analysis contingent on the number of studies retrieved and the interstudy heterogeneity, which will be explored with I ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: This protocol and the subsequent systematic review will not collect individual-level data and do not require approval by an ethical committee. We intend to disseminate the study results via peer-reviewed scientific journals and relevant (inter)national conferences. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER: CRD42022343373.
