Clinical implications of teleradiology in rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases: improving rheumatic care.
Review in Rheumatology international, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
Teleradiology, the transmission of radiologic images for remote assessment and consultation, has transformed modern medical care by mitigating geographical inequities and improving diagnostic accuracy. This technology employs telecommunications, digital imaging, and data-sharing systems developments to deliver swift and precise image analysis across various healthcare environments. Teleradiology has been essential in identifying and controlling diseases, including osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and spondyloarthritis, especially in musculoskeletal radiology and rheumatology. The combination of teleradiology and telemedicine has transformed multidisciplinary cooperation, enhancing communication among radiologists, rheumatologists, and other healthcare practitioners to provide patient-centered treatment. It has markedly enhanced access to highly specialized knowledge, especially in rural and disadvantaged areas, facilitating prompt consultations and alleviating patient travel constraints. However, despite its benefits, teleradiology encounters several challenges, including standardization issues, ethical dilemmas, and infrastructure constraints. The absence of uniform standards and inequalities in access to high-speed Internet and digital health records impede extensive implementation. Addressing these constraints is crucial to fully utilizing teleradiology's potential in musculoskeletal and rheumatic care. This article highlights the transformational potential of teleradiology and its incorporation into telemedicine for musculoskeletal and rheumatological treatment. Teleradiology is set to enhance global healthcare delivery by addressing disparities in healthcare access, fostering multidisciplinary cooperation, and utilizing advanced technologies. It underscores the necessity for ongoing innovation and investment in infrastructure, education, and standards to optimize the advantages of this crucial technology and guarantee equitable, efficient, and high-quality care for all patients.
