Enhancing monitoring and evaluation of digital health interventions in sub-Saharan Africa: big data, mHealth, and dashboards.
Article in Journal of global health, 2025. 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
Digital health interventions based on digital and mobile technologies are essential for advancing healthcare in sub-Saharan Africa. However, challenges with their effective monitoring and evaluation (M&E) continue to impact their scalability and sustainability. Here we propose a set of innovative strategies to strengthen M&E frameworks, including integrating big data analytics and artificial intelligence for real-time impact assessment, leveraging mHealth platforms for enhanced data collection and stakeholder engagement, and developing interactive digital dashboards for transparent decision-making. These strategies aim to optimise digital health interventions implementation and evaluation, addressing critical healthcare access and outcome challenges exacerbated by a shortage of healthcare professionals in the region. By enhancing M&E capabilities, these approaches maximise the impact of digital health technologies in improving public health across sub-Saharan Africa.
