Meeting the needs of rural cancer patients in survivorship: Understanding the role of telehealth.
Article in The Australian journal of rural health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectiveThis study explores perceptions about the role of telehealth in providing health and supportive services to Australian rural/regional cancer patients and survivor during COVID-19 and the quality of these services to inform future practice.
designData were collected as part of a bi-annual survey on client satisfaction at a rural/regional community cancer wellness centre in Australia. SETTINGS AND
participantsRural/regional cancer patients and survivors (n = 66) completed an online survey.
main outcome measuresThe three main outcome measures were: (1) attitudes towards telehealth; (2) preference for future cancer support services; and (3) experiences with video/telehealth.
resultsYounger participants were more likely to use allied health services via video/telehealth during COVID-19 than their older counterparts. The preferred format for cancer support services in future was face-to-face (59% for younger and 42% for older participants), telehealth (10% for both groups) and mixed (31% for younger and 48% for older participants).
conclusionsTelehealth has benefits for the delivery of health and supportive services to rural/regional cancer patients and survivors. Nurses can play a key role in assessing the support needs of cancer survivors and facilitating strategies to ensure that survivors have the skills necessary to access telehealth support.
