Real-world telemonitoring and remote support for home non-invasive ventilation to improve therapy effectiveness: the exploratory, multicentre randomised eVENT study.
Trial report in Thorax, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04615078 (Multi-center, National, Randomized, Exploratory Study Evaluating Telemonitoring and Experimentation in Telemedicine for the Improvement of Healthcare Pathways), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
rationaleTelemonitoring has shown benefits during the initiation of home non-invasive ventilation (NIV) but evidence is lacking regarding its use during follow-up. A French national telemonitoring programme incorporating remote support and therapeutic education is designed to improve patient pathways and reduce healthcare resource utilisation. This study investigated the impact of the telemonitoring programme versus usual follow-up on the effectiveness of home NIV.
methodsThe prospective, multicentre, open-label eVENT trial enrolled adults recently started on home NIV. Participants were randomised to the telemonitoring or usual follow-up group. In the telemonitoring group, a CE-marked algorithm generated alerts based on teletransmitted ventilator data. Specialised nurses managed alerts and provided therapeutic education. The primary outcome was mean nocturnal transcutaneous carbon dioxide level (PtCO
results56 patients were randomised and 53 were analysed (telemonitoring: n=27, usual follow-up: n=26). At 6 months, mean PtCO
conclusionsIn patients on home NIV, PtCO TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: NCT04615078.
