1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Hypertension is a leading global health concern, contributing significantly to cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Therefore, it is of interest to assess the long-term effects of telemedicine consultations on blood pressure control, medication adherence and patient satisfaction over one year, comparing it with usual face-to-face care. Results showed that the telemedicine group had significantly better blood pressure control, higher medication adherence (p = 0.002) and greater satisfaction (p < 0.0001) than the control group. Frequent interactions through telemedicine likely facilitated these improvements. Telemedicine demonstrates potential as an effective strategy for managing hypertension in the long term.
