Telehealth Usability Among Rural and Low-Income Populations: A Survey of Wyoming Medicaid Members.
Article in Journal of patient experience, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Telehealth has been shown as a tool to improve health access and outcomes in rural areas. There is less literature examining the usability and utility of telehealth by rural and low-income populations. Existing literature focuses on examining telehealth usability for specific telehealth platforms and specific use cases. There is minimal literature broadly examining telehealth usability in rural and low-income populations. Using the Telehealth Usability Questionnaire in conjunction with demographic questions, we examined telehealth usability in the Wyoming Medicaid population. Additionally, we explored whether factors such as rurality, age, gender, and whether the visit was behavioral, affected usability scores. (1) We found that overall, usability scores were high in all cases. (2) Wyoming Medicaid clients with behavioral visits demonstrated statistically significant increased usability scores compared to the already positive scores in patients with nonbehavioral visits. (3) The other variables we examined did not show any statistically significant differences in usability scores. (4) These results demonstrate broad usability of telemedicine in a rural and low-income population and may be used to justify expansion of telehealth services.
