Equity by Design - Using Digital Technology To Overcome Cardiovascular Health Disparities.
Review in Current cardiology reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
purpose of reviewThis paper examines how digital health technologies can either reduce or exacerbate disparities in cardiovascular disease outcomes. It explores the role of the digital divide defined as a multifactorial phenomenon encompassing unequal access to internet connectivity, digital devices, and digital literacy, often driven by socioeconomic status, geography, age, education, language, and disability in shaping access to telehealth, remote monitoring, and patient engagement tools, with a focus on strategies for equitable implementation. RECENT
findingsDigital health interventions have improved patient outcomes by enhancing accessibility and adherence to care. However, challenges such as limited technology access, low digital literacy, and systemic biases contribute to persistent disparities, particularly among marginalized populations. Emerging strategies, including community-based digital literacy programs, policy reforms, and inclusive design approaches, show promise in addressing these gaps. While digital health has the potential to bridge gaps in cardiovascular care, ensuring equity requires intentional design and policy interventions. Addressing barriers to access and digital literacy is critical to maximizing the benefits of these innovations for all patient populations.
