Impact of a smartphone-connected remote monitoring system on self-management continuity and health awareness in cardiovascular outpatients: an exploratory survey.
Article in European heart journal. Digital health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Aims: Cardiovascular diseases are a leading cause of death globally, and effective self-management is critical for patient outcomes. Integrating Internet of Things-enabled devices with smartphone applications presents a novel approach to enhancing self-management, yet challenges with digital literacy and device usability persist, especially among the elderly. This study aimed to evaluate the adherence, ease of use, and impact on health awareness of a smartphone-connected remote monitoring system among cardiovascular outpatients in Japan. Methods and results: We conducted a single-centre, prospective survey at Kumamoto University Hospital involving 10 cardiovascular outpatients (median age: 72.5 years) including heart failure ( Conclusion: This pilot study suggests that a smartphone-connected remote monitoring system may enhance self-management practices and health awareness among cardiovascular outpatients. While the findings are promising, larger studies with longer follow-up periods are needed to confirm these results and evaluate the system's impact on clinical outcomes.
