Remote Practice of Infectious Diseases Through Telemedicine: Improving Access for Patients and Appeal for Physicians.
Article in Open forum infectious diseases, 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
The specialty of infectious diseases (ID) is facing headwinds in attracting new physicians into training and clinical practice, leading to workforce shortage and rising burnout among existing ID physicians. The distribution of ID physicians across the country is skewed, and many Americans do not have access to ID expertise. Novel care models are needed to ensure the longevity of the ID specialty and patient access to ID care. ID telemedicine provides a new opportunity for ID physicians with the benefits of residing in one's preferred geographic location, eliminating the need to commute, and structuring the workday to improve work-life balance. This viewpoint, which includes personal experiences in transitioning from in-person to remote ID practice, describes the extent of challenges facing the ID specialty and how telemedicine can reduce burnout among ID physicians, attract more physicians into the specialty, and improve access to ID care.
