An equity analysis of remote patient monitoring programs unveils assumptions on digital health equity.
Review in NPJ digital medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
To assess if remote patient monitoring (RPM) programs for chronic conditions are positioned to advance equity through inclusive practices, 119 papers were evaluated against 11 multi-level equity parameters. Equity parameters were inconsistent and incompletely reported suggesting assumptions are being made about the inherent equitability of RPM solutions. Reporting guidelines should include how RPM programs address inclusive strategies. A validated monitoring tool is needed to quantitatively assess equity progress and gaps.
