The value of promoting "Internet Plus" home-based pulmonary rehabilitation for university staff with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Review in Frontiers in public health, 2026. 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
Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is a non-pharmacological intervention for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). "Internet-Plus" technologies create opportunities for home-delivered PR to overcome barriers of center-based rehabilitation, yet real-world implementation evidence among university staff with COPD remains scarce. This mini review synthesizes six major "Internet-Plus" home-based PR modalities: short message service (SMS)/telephone follow-up, social media platforms, video conferencing telerehabilitation, wearable devices and Internet of things (IoT) systems, smartphone applications and virtual-reality-integrated rehabilitation. Available evidence indicates that telehealth PR yields comparable clinical outcomes to center PR in many studies, though considerable heterogeneity across trials leads to inconsistent conclusions regarding exercise capacity, quality of life and hospitalization endpoints. Notably, no interventional studies have delivered telehealth PR specifically for university staff with COPD. We conceptually propose that university staff with high digital literacy and structured occupational settings, constitute a promising target population for translational research in this domain. The review concludes with a conceptual framework for designing precise, intelligent home PR management within university communities.
