Telemedicine for Managing Type 1 Diabetes in Children and Adolescents Before and After the COVID-19 Pandemic.
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The COVID-19 pandemic has catalyzed the rapid expansion of telemedicine for managing chronic conditions such as type 1 diabetes (T1D) in children and adolescents. This narrative review aims to explore the role of telemedicine in pediatric T1D management by comparing its use before and after the pandemic. We conducted a comprehensive literature review covering studies published between 2000 and 2024, focusing on telemedicine applications in pediatric T1D care. The review includes clinical trials, systematic reviews, and observational studies examining telemedicine's impact on glycemic control, patient satisfaction, and healthcare delivery. Results reveal that telemedicine has enhanced access to care, improved glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels, and reduced diabetic ketoacidosis and hypoglycemic events. Patients and caregivers expressed high satisfaction, especially when using continuous glucose monitoring and insulin pump technologies integrated with telemedicine platforms. However, challenges such as digital literacy gaps, variability in healthcare provider training, and logistical issues like reimbursement policies persist. The pandemic highlighted the potential of telemedicine to supplement traditional in-person care, showing promise in enhancing patient outcomes and reducing healthcare burdens. Further research is needed to optimize telemedicine models for T1D, addressing barriers to implementation and exploring its long-term cost-effectiveness. This review underscores telemedicine's evolving role as a complementary approach in managing pediatric T1D, advocating for the development of standardized care protocols to fully integrate digital health solutions into routine clinical practice.
