Adherence and renal biopsy feasibility in the Renin Angiotensin-System Study (RASS) primary prevention diabetes trial.
Trial report in Diabetes research and clinical practice, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
aimsEnhancing adherence in research trials is fundamental to the proper testing of treatment hypotheses.
methodsRegimen and follow-up adherence as well as factors associated with adherence in the Renin Angiotensin-System Study (RASS) diabetic nephropathy primary prevention trial were evaluated. Adherence to medication (i.e., pill count), follow-up visits, and follow-up renal biopsies was evaluated.
results89.8% of subjects completed the second renal biopsy. 96% of follow-up visits were attended within prescribed time windows. Mean medication adherence was 85.6%. Subgroup analyses revealed greater declines in the least adherent participants over time. Factors associated with greater adherence levels included older age, type 1 diabetes (TIDM) duration, lower HbA1c and blood pressure, GFR, ethnicity, and participants', principal investigators' (PI), and trial coordinators' (TC) baseline predictions of adherence.
conclusionsT1DM patients without nephropathy were willing to take experimental medications and undergo repeat renal biopsies. Although overall adherence was excellent, patterns of adherence varied among participants, suggesting the need to better track adherence and to develop customized and targeted approaches for promoting adherence to clinical research regimens. Staff subjective predictions of adherence were imprecise, supporting need for further development of adherence predictors.
