Extended reality in cardiovascular care: a systematic review.
Review in European heart journal. Digital health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Extended reality (XR) is an emerging technology currently finding its way into various medical fields. This systematic review aimed to compile a comprehensive overview of the current data on XR in cardiovascular medicine. To identify the currently available evidence of the applications of XR in cardiology, we searched PubMed and Web of Science until 31 July 2024 using predefined keywords. After screening, a total of 164 studies were included. Overall, the publications were characterized by very heterogeneous study designs. From the published data, it can already be deduced that XR can support every area of cardiology, from education (
