Pharmacists' provision of information to Spanish-speaking patients: a social cognitive approach.
Article in Research in social & administrative pharmacy : RSAP. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
backgroundHispanics with limited English proficiency face communication challenges that affect medication use and outcomes. Pharmacists are poised to help patients' use medications safely and effectively; however, scant research has explored factors that may impact pharmacists' communication with Spanish-speaking patients (SSPs).
objectiveGuided by social cognitive theory (SCT), the purpose of this study was to examine the relationships between pharmacy environmental factors, pharmacists' cognition, and pharmacists' communication with SSPs.
methodsA cross-sectional survey used a vignette to quantify the amount of information pharmacists would provide to an SSP. Pharmacy environmental factors (language-assistance resources, Spanish-speaking staff, and number of SSPs) and pharmacists' cognition (self-efficacy beliefs and cultural sensitivity) that may influence communication also were assessed. The relationships between environmental factors, cognition, and pharmacists' communication with SSPs, including indirect relationships, were examined using composite indicator structural equation (CISE) modeling.
resultsOf the 183 respondents, most were white (91%) and male (63%) with a mean age of 47 years (SD = 12.77). The CISE modeling revealed that the number of SSPs served by the pharmacy and the pharmacist's self-efficacy in communicating with SSPs were significantly directly associated with pharmacist's provision of information to SSPs. Two environmental factors (presence of interpreter services and Spanish-speaking staff) operated indirectly through self-efficacy to significantly impact the provision of information.
conclusionsStudy findings identify both environmental factors and cognition that could contribute to pharmacists' communication behavior with SSPs. Thus, future interventions to improve pharmacists' communication with SSPs may include training pharmacists to integrate interpretative services and Spanish-speaking staff into service delivery and strengthening pharmacists' self-efficacy beliefs.
