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

Oncology nurses have long been at the forefront of virtual care, transitioning from telenursing to technology-driven delivery methods that address the evolving needs of cancer patients. Initially developed to overcome barriers to care for rural and underserved populations, virtual care has grown into a critical component of oncology practice. Oncology nurses play a central role in providing timely, personalized, and holistic care, leveraging tools such as remote monitoring, patient-reported outcomes, and mHealth platforms. However, the rapid adoption of virtual care demands a broader focus to sustain its impact. This commentary explores the need to clearly define the role of oncology nurses in virtual care, emphasizing leadership in digital health, the integration of hybrid care models, and workforce training. By addressing these priorities, virtual care can continue to enhance patient outcomes, strengthen nursing-led interventions, and expand the scope of oncology nursing, positioning it as an essential and enduring facet of cancer care delivery.
