Effectiveness of telenursing in improving quality of life in patients with heart failure: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
Review in Journal of Taibah University Medical Sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers, 3 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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: In the field of health services, telenursing is a contemporary information and communication technology system that enables the provision of nursing care and services to remote areas. Telenursing can increase psychological general well-being in patients with chronic conditions. Nevertheless, the effects of telenursing on patients with heart failure have not been examined. Objective: This study was aimed at ascertaining how telenursing treatments affect quality of life in patients with heart failure. Method: The inclusion criteria were articles from 2015 to 2023 in English, reporting quality of life outcomes for participants with heart failure in randomized controlled trials of telenursing interventions. The exclusion criteria were studies of psychiatric disorders, literature reviews, systematic reviews, and umbrella reviews. The systematic review was registered with PROSPERO registration number CRD42023484361. The review was conducted with five databases: PubMed, Scopus, Willey, Proquest, and Emerald Insight. Critical appraisal was conducted with the Joanna Briggs Institute's Critical Appraisal Checklist. The data were synthesized with Review Manager version 5.4. Results: Eleven randomized controlled trials (2032 patients) met the inclusion criteria. A significant effect on quality of life was observed after telenursing intervention. The heterogeneity was high, at 98% (SMD = 1.05; 95% CI [0.12, 1.98]; ρ = 0.03). Conclusion: Telenursing interventions can improve quality of life among patients with heart failure and therefore may be applied in hospitals providing nursing care, to remotely provide education and monitor the quality of life of patients with heart failure.
