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

backgroundTelemedicine is influenced by several factors. Increase of recent changes, the emergence of new issues presence of societies in the future world, discontinuous events, and the existence of uncertainties, it seems necessary to plan for the successful. Identifying key effective factors, their role, and mutual relationship can enhance the decision-making and planning process in the country. This study endeavors to find the key effective factors on telemedicine to achieve a better future for the implementation of this technology in Iran. MATERIALS AND

methodsIn terms of its nature, this research is based on the new methods of futurology is analytical-exploratory, and in terms of purpose it is applied, and in terms of the type of research is descriptive survey. The time horizon of 1410 is the basis of this study. This study was performed in Iran based on STEEP and using MICMAC software (Calculate from matrix of direct influence (MDI) and matrix of indirect influence (MII) include: direct influence/dependence map, direct influence graph, and indirect influence graph).

resultsData collection was performed through reviewing sources. The prioritization of primary variables was performed through a questionnaire to determine the importance, which led to the identification of 22 important factors. Next, to identify the nature of different factors and explanation the key factors, the matrix of cross-impact and MICMAC software were used. Finally, 13 key factors were defined.

conclusionPolitical factors have the greatest contribution as the main key factors and have a greater impact on the future of telemedicine, which highlights the need for authorities to consider this field for the effective implementation of technology in the future.
