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

objectivesTo compare compliance and efficacy between remote interactive voice training and traditional face-to-face therapy by using propensity-score matching (PSM) .

methodsPatients who received voice training at Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital from January 2019 to June 2022 were retrospectively enrolled. Cases treated in 2019 and 2021 (traditional voice training) were merged into a “traditional group”, whereas those treated in 2022 (remote voice training) constituted the “remote group”. PSM was performed to analyze efficacy. Compare the compliance rate and voice indicators (VHI, Jitter, Shimmer) between two groups.

resultsA total of 179 patients were included in the matching, with 125 in the traditional group and 54 in the remote group. After PSM, 89 patients in the traditional group and 51 in the remote group were analysed. In the traditional group, residence significantly impacted compliance (p values < 0.001), but not in the remote group. In the efficacy analysis, there were no statistically significant differences in the improvements of VHI, Jitter, and Shimmer between the two groups.

conclusionsRemote interactive voice training significantly improves compliance among non-local residents, with efficacy outcomes appearing comparable within the limits of the study design, providing a scalable telemedicine model for voice rehabilitation.
