[Relevance of eHealth Literacy (eHL) for Health Services Research and Practice - Part I].
Article in Gesundheitswesen (Bundesverband der Arzte des Offentlichen Gesundheitsdienstes (Germany)), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
As digitization progresses, citizens, patients and providers increasingly encounter digital or hybrid prevention or care services and digitally supported health information. Under these circumstances, electronic health literacy (eHL) as an extension of health literacy (HL) is a crucial skill that entails searching, finding, understanding, evaluating and applying health information based on digital sources when encountering challenges to health. There are currently multiple definitions that do not take into account newer digital applications in particular. The aim of part I of this article by the members of the Digital Health working group of the German Network for Health Services Research (DNVF) is to derive a working definition of eHL which is founded on known definitions of (e-)health literacy and on dimensions of relevant framework models and theories. Particular attention is paid to the delimitation and similarities between HL and eHL. Also, this article looks at the operationalization of eHL in the context of internationally proven approaches. Here, eHL is viewed as a relational construct that can be approached via multidimensional operationalization at the individual, interaction-related and system levels.
