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

People with disabilities face multiple barriers to healthcare access globally, especially in low-resource and underserved settings. Telemedicine and community-based care have emerged as potential strategies to reduce these gaps, but evidence remains fragmented. This narrative review aimed to examine barriers to healthcare access for people with disabilities and explore the role of telemedicine and community-based interventions. A narrative review was conducted following SANRA guidelines. Searches were performed in PubMed, MEDLINE, Scopus, Web of Science, CINAHL, PsycINFO, and Google Scholar. Fifty studies were included from 116 records using
