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

purposeTo investigate the current status of medication adherence among peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients in a primary hospital and to explore the influencing factors of medication adherence among PD patients.

methodsThe author used the Chinese version of the Morisky Medication Compliance Scale to evaluate the medication compliance of 226 PD patients in a single centre. Univariate analysis and logistic regression were used to analyse the factors influencing medication compliance in patients.

resultsAmong 226 PD patients, 196 had moderate/high drug adherence (86.73%), and 36 had low medication adherence (15.93%). Univariate analysis showed that there was a statistically significant difference between groups in age (χ

conclusionsIn summary, this study found that age and depressive symptoms were the main factors affecting drug compliance in PD patients, providing a basis for specifying specific measures to improve patient medication adherence. With the help of information technology and a novel exercise method, the medical staff could carry out various forms of health education and activity to improve the medication compliance of PD patients.
