Reported time savings and telephone consultation use in polish primary care: a national random sample survey.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 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
Introduction: Teleconsultations may reduce travel and time burdens in post-pandemic primary care, but evidence on whether reported time savings are associated with their usage remains limited in Central Europe. Methods: A cross-sectional computer-assisted personal interviewing (CAPI) survey using a random sampling design was conducted among adults in Poland from November 2025 to January 2026 ( Results: Reported time savings were not significantly associated with use in Models 1-4. In Model 5, which simultaneously included residence-size controls and voivodeship (NUTS 2 region) indicators and used the smaller complete-case sample, the adjusted odds ratios were as follows: 3.03 for less than 1 h, 3.91 for 1-2 h, and 4.41 for 3 h or more (all Conclusion: In fully adjusted models including place-of-residence controls and voivodeship fixed effects, perceived time savings were independently associated with higher odds of teleconsultation use in primary care in Poland. However, this association varied depending on model specifications. Therefore, policy efforts should address regional differences in digital and informational barriers contributing to inequalities in utilization.
