1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

aimsWe examined psychosocial- and social/economic factors related to low medication adherence, and sex differences, among 279 adults of Mexican heritage with Type 2 Diabetes.

methodsSelf-report and health record data were used for cross-sectional analyses. Bivariate analyses tested the association of demographic, psychosocial (depression, anxiety, stress) and social/economic factors (insurance type, health literacy, social support) and medication adherence measured by proportion of days covered. Hierarchical regression analyses examined associations between demographic, psychosocial- and social/economic- related factors and low medication adherence stratified by sex.

resultsMore males than females demonstrated low adherence to hypoglycemic medications (75.0.% vs. 70.3%) (p < 0.05). We found significant differences between levels social support and medication adherence (p < 0.05). In hierarchical models, being US born and higher levels of social support were associated with low adherence among males (p < 0.05, and p < 0.001).

conclusionsApproximately 72% of Mexican heritage adults demonstrated low adherence (PDC ≤ 0.50) to their hypoglycemic regimen, and gender differences exist. Interventions should address gender differences in preferences for social support to improve medication-taking behaviors among Mexican heritage males.
