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

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and user satisfaction of the MAIA™ telemedicine platform for postoperative telemonitoring and telerehabilitation in patients undergoing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). Methods: Patients undergoing RARP (from April 2022 to January 2023) were divided into Group A, following the standard rehabilitation protocol, and Group B using the MAIA™ platform for the first 30-day post-intervention period. Perioperative, pathological, and functional variables (continence and potency rates, assessed via validated questionnaires) were collected and telerehabilitation protocol's adherence was monitored. The telerehabilitation system included an online platform for medical providers and a patient application, facilitating data acquisition, management, treatment planning, and monitoring. Patient and provider satisfaction were evaluated using the visual analogue scale score and validated telemedicine satisfaction questionnaire. Results: Totally, 227 patients were enrolled. No differences in perioperative or pathological variables were found. Group B had higher potency recovery rates than Group A ( Conclusion: The MAIA™ telemedicine platform seems to have a role in optimizing early potency recovery after RARP. Patient and provider satisfaction levels were high, emphasizing the user-friendliness of the platform.
