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

purpose of reviewThis review examines recent evidence for the effectiveness of telehealth in treating Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), alcohol use disorder, and insomnia in military veterans and active-duty service members (ADSMs). RECENT

findingsRecent randomized controlled trials and prospective cohort studies provide strong evidence that synchronous video-teleconference based therapy is effective for PTSD, MDD, and insomnia in this population. There is growing evidence for the effectiveness of internet-based self-guided therapy, particularly when combined with coaching support provided by telemedicine, for symptoms of PTSD, MDD, and insomnia. The effectiveness of telehealth in the treatment of alcohol use disorders is less well-supported, as is the effectiveness of mobile applications. These findings are supported by the team's analysis of the literature as well as an analysis provided by an Artificial Intelligence (AI) platform. The current evidence supports the use of synchronous video-teleconference and internet-based self-guided therapy with coaching support in the treatment of several common diagnoses in the military veteran and ADSM populations. Other modalities of telehealth require further research. HUMAN AND ANIMAL RIGHTS: This article does not contain any studies with human or animal subjects performed by any of the authors.
