What drives telehealth use? Evidence from a two-wave panel study.
Article in Digital health. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Objective: This study investigates the key factors influencing users' intention to continue using telehealth platforms in Vietnam. Specifically, it examines the temporal relationships among hedonic value, utilitarian value, perceived privacy, perceived security, doctor-patient communication quality (DPCQ), trust, and continuance intention. Methods: A longitudinal two-wave survey design was employed, with data collected from telehealth users at two time points (Time 1: Results: The findings indicate that hedonic value, utilitarian value, perceived privacy, perceived security, and doctor-patient communication quality at Time 1 all significantly predict user trust at Time 2. Trust, in turn, significantly influences users' continuance intention toward telehealth services. The analysis confirms the temporal precedence of trust and highlights the crucial role of high-quality communication in fostering long-term engagement with telehealth platforms. Conclusions: By integrating emotional, functional, and relational drivers within a validated longitudinal framework, this study advances the theoretical understanding of telehealth adoption and continuance behavior. The results provide practical implications for telehealth platform developers and healthcare providers seeking to strengthen user trust and sustain long-term engagement.
