Applying Blockchain in Telemedicine: A Systematic Review.
Review in International journal of preventive medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background: Blockchain has many applications in healthcare and can improve mobile health applications, monitoring devices, electronic media record sharing and storage, clinical trial data, and insurance information storage. In this study, the aim was to investigate the application areas of blockchain and its impact in telemedicine. Methods: This study considers articles use blockchain for telemedicine. PubMed, Science direct, and Web of Science databases are considered as searchable databases. Information on authors' names, year of publication, country, application, privacy mechanism, blockchain platform, and encryption techniques are used. 249 studies were retrieved after the initial search. Finally, 16 cases had the necessary criteria to enter this study. The JBI checklist was applied to all 16 studies. Results: China with 5 studies and Italy with 3 studies are the most important countries about blockchain in telemedicine that electronic health records are more used than others. Blockchain platforms are Ethereum, Internet of thing, cloud-service provider, and GPS. Encryption techniques are Attribute-based encryption: Decentralized identity: Order-preserving encryption- hashcode- Double blockchain. Conclusions: Blockchain plays an important role in creating security for telemedicine technology. In the future, the use of technology will have a significant and important leap, which will attract the attention of many researchers.
