Determining the Relationship Between Perceived Social Support and Immunosuppressive Medication Adherence After Kidney Transplantation: A Descriptive Correlational Study.
Article in Journal of evaluation in clinical practice, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundWhat is known about how the level of social support, which is among the factors affecting medication adherence, affects medication adherence is limited.
objectivesThis study investigated the relationship between perceived social support and immunosuppressive medication adherence among kidney recipients.
designThis study was conducted using a descriptive correlational research method.
participantsThe study conducted research with 168 kidney transplant recipients who agreed to participate between April and June 2021. Participants completed the Immunosuppressive Medication Adherence Scale (IMAS) and the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS). MEASUREMENTS AND
resultsParticipants had a mean IMAS and MSPSS score of 50.24 ± 3.71 and 57.21 ± 13.96, respectively. Participants' MSPSS total (r = 0.209, p = 0.006) and 'family' (r = 0.248, p = 0.001) and 'friends' (r = 0.226, p = 0.003) subscale scores were weakly and positively correlated with their IMAS total score.
conclusionUnderstanding the effect of perceived social support on immunosuppressive medication adherence is important for designing future interventions to increase immunosuppressive medication adherence.
