Boruta-driven analysis of telehealth amalgamation across healthcare stratifications with diffuse-dual-channel and tiered-gatekeeper systems.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the adaptation and effectiveness of telemedicine with the diffuse-dual-channel system (DDS) and tiered-gatekeeper system (TGS) across different tiers of the healthcare system on technical-organizational-environmental (TOE) framework. The telemedicine services were extended as Tiered-gatekeeper system (TGS) by Primary and Secondary Healthcare (PSHC) and Diffuse-dual-channel system (DDS) by King Edward Medical University (KEMU) in 2020 benefiting 2605 and 21,905 patients, respectively. This cross-sectional survey is based on a structured questionnaire conducted on 172 healthcare practitioners (HCP) from KEMU and 76 from PSHC selected by purposive sampling and analysis is conducted through descriptive analysis and the Boruta features selection method. The diffuse-dual-channel system is found to be flexible, easy to implement, and impactful due to innate compatibility with prevailing healthcare practices, however, it is a parallel effort to the existing healthcare system. The tiered-gatekeeping system is found to be complex in adaptation initially, but is more organized, deeply integrated, accountable and channelizes the flow of patients, resultantly aiding the preservation of resources.
