Determinants of Health-Related Quality of Life in Outpatients with Myocardial Infarction.
Article in Journal of multidisciplinary healthcare, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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: The health-related quality of life (HRQOL) of patients with myocardial infarction (MI) is suboptimal because of the disease's life-threatening nature, the requirement for long-term lifestyle modifications, and the treatment regimens following MI. This study aimed to evaluate HRQOL and its associated factors in MI patients. Material and Methods: This study was conducted on patients with MI who attended the outpatient cardiology clinic at a major teaching hospital in Jordan. The EQ-5D-3L questionnaire was used to assess HRQOL of the study participants. Quantile regression analysis was conducted to identify the variables associated with HRQOL. Results: The study included 333 patients with a history of MI, with a median age of 58 (57-60). The median of the total EQ-5D score was 0.65 (0.216-0.805). Regression results revealed that male patients (Coefficient= 0.110, 95%Cl (0.022-0.197), P=0.014) and not being diagnosed with diabetes (Coefficient= 0.154, 95%Cl (0.042-0.266), P=0.007) were associated with increased HRQOL. On the other hand, low income (Coefficient= -0.115, 95%Cl (-0.203 - -0.026), P=0.011), not receiving DPP-4 (Dipeptidyl Peptidase -4) inhibitors (Coefficient= -0.321 95%Cl (-0.462 - -0.180), P<0.001), and having low (Coefficient= -0.271, 95%Cl (-0.395 - -0.147), P<0.001) or moderate (Coefficient= -0.123, 95%Cl (-0.202 - -0.044), P=0.002) medication adherence was associated with decreased HRQOL. Conclusion: The current study demonstrated diminished HRQOL among patients with MI, highlighting the necessity of tailoring interventions to tackle medication adherence barriers in this population. Personalized interventions such as educational programs, counseling, and reminders that consider each patient's needs and circumstances can greatly enhance medication adherence and, thus, the HRQOL of MI patients. Individuals with lower income levels, female patients, and those with diabetes should be the specific targets of these interventions.
