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

backgroundType 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) significantly affects patients' quality of life and can be life-threatening, necessitating improved monitoring strategies. Telemedicine, which leverages telecommunications technologies to deliver health care services and expertise, has the potential to enhance T1DM management. However, its effectiveness remains to be fully established.

objectiveThis study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of various telemedicine-based carbohydrate-counting (CC) interventions in patients with T1DM.

methodsThis systematic review and meta-analysis searched 5 databases-PubMed, Web of Science, CINAHL, Embase, and Cochrane-as well as reference lists of retrieved articles on September 26, 2024, for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) assessing the effectiveness of telemedicine-based CC interventions in reducing glycated hemoglobin A

resultsFrom 3612 citations, we identified 18 eligible RCTs (n=1627) from 14 regions for inclusion in the meta-analysis. Participants in the telemedicine intervention group experienced a 0.35% reduction in HbA

conclusionsCompared with usual care, telemedicine-delivered CC interventions improved HbA
