Perceptions of Telemedicine Among Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Patients and Healthcare Providers.
Article in American journal of physical medicine & rehabilitation, 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
objectiveOur purpose was to assess perceptions of telemedicine among physical medicine and rehabilitation patients and healthcare providers.
designA 28-question online survey was conducted. Patients had to be 18 yrs or older who used telemedicine for a physical medicine and rehabilitation visit. Providers had to be a board-certified physical medicine and rehabilitation provider who has used telemedicine in their practice.
resultsSixty-eight patients and 46 providers completed the survey. Patients and providers reported an intention to continue using telemedicine, regardless of insurance coverage/reimbursement. Patients and providers reported circumstances, such as needing a physical examination or a first-time visit, as being preferable for an in-person visit. Patients who were younger or a caretaker were more likely to report being willing to change providers if telemedicine was no longer offered than older or noncaretaker patients. Patients who made less than $30,000 annually or who did not own a car were more likely to report comfortability with telemedicine than patients who made more than $30,000 annually or who owned a car.
conclusionsTelemedicine will continue as a staple of physical medicine and rehabilitation health care and is a particularly important resource for patients who are younger, caretakers, make less than $30,000 annually, or do not own a car.
