Development and content validation of a patient-centered and digitally inclusive mobile application for chronic heart failure: A Delphi 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
Background: Chronic heart failure (CHF) necessitates ongoing self-management to reduce hospital admissions and enhance clinical outcomes. Mobile health (mHealth) applications are promising tools. However, most lack validated content and user-centered design. This study aimed to identify and validate core content for a CHF-focused mHealth application through expert consensus. Methods: A two-round Delphi study was conducted with 24 experts, including physicians, nurses, and patients with CHF. In round one, 39 self-management items were evaluated. Based on quantitative scores and qualitative feedback, 5 items were excluded, and 13 new ones were added. In round two, 44 of 47 items (93.6%) achieved consensus ( Results: Validated content was categorized into two domains. Domain 1: Recording Functionalities included Signs and Symptoms ( Conclusions: This study validated 44 items for CHF self-management via mHealth. The participatory, evidence-based approach ensures clinical relevance and usability. Implementation may improve adherence, decrease readmissions, and support quality of life.
