Evaluating eRAMP telecare for diabetes in outpatient clinics: a hybrid effectiveness-implementation study.
Article in NPJ digital medicine, 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
This study evaluated the effectiveness and implementation of a telecare-enhanced hybrid consultation model for diabetes management in public general outpatient clinics. In a single-blind, non-inferiority randomized controlled trial involving 786 adults with type 2 diabetes across seven clinics, participants were assigned to either a hybrid care group, receiving alternating telecare and in-person consultations, or a control group, receiving in-person care only, over 84 weeks. The intervention group (IG) showed comparable HbA1c levels to the control group (CG). Blood pressure readings were consistently lower in the IG, and medication adherence remained stable, unlike the CG, which experienced a midline decline. All clinics sustained the telecare model post-trial. Implementation was facilitated by strong leadership and a reliable digital infrastructure, though challenges such as digital literacy and staff workload remained. The model proved effective, comparable cost, and feasible within a public healthcare setting.
