Article in The journal of medicine access. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Significant disparities in the uptake of digital health tools have been previously described. Studies have found that low perceived confidence to engage with digital health resources among medically underserved patients partially account for this. To address barriers to digital health engagement (specifically around patient portal enrollment and use), the Los Angeles County Department of Health Services (LAC DHS) introduced the Health Technology Navigators program. To our knowledge, this is the first formal digital health workforce implemented in a safety net system. The objectives of the editorial are to describe the evolution and roles of the health technology navigators and their early effects within LAC DHS, the second largest safety net health system in the United States.
