Digital Health for Breast Care: Patient Satisfaction and Reducing Disparities through Telemedicine.
Article in International journal of breast cancer, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Background: Virtual teleconsultation plays a pivotal role in managing diseases requiring long-term communication between patients and treatment teams, such as breast diseases. The Ruban Virtual Breast Clinic in Iran offers teleconsultation services focusing on nonurgent chronic complaints through offline messaging. This study aimed to evaluate patient satisfaction with these teleconsultation services. Methods: A comprehensive questionnaire was designed with three sections: identifying the individual interacting with the clinic and prior teleconsultation use; collecting demographic data and reasons for consultation; and assessing satisfaction using 16 items rated on a Likert scale from 1 ( Results: Of 583 eligible cases, 367 (62.9%) consented to participate. The average satisfaction score was 91.6 out of 100, indicating a high level of patient satisfaction. Conclusions: The high satisfaction rates suggest that telehealth services, particularly virtual consultations, are feasible and highly acceptable in meeting patients' healthcare needs. These findings underscore telehealth's potential to improve access to care, though further research is required to establish its clinical effectiveness.
