Article in Behavioral medicine (Washington, D.C.), 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT02392884 (A Cognitive Rehabilitation Program to Promote Treatment Adherence for Individuals Who Are HIV Positive With Mild Neurocognitive Difficulties), which is not on this map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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.

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.

Abstract

Limited health literacy has been shown to contribute to poor adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) in people living with HIV/AIDS. Given the mixed results of previous interventions for people with HIV and low health literacy, investigating possible targets for improved adherence is warranted. The present study aims to identify the correlates of optimal and suboptimal outcomes among participants of a recent skills-based medication adherence intervention. This secondary analysis included 188 men and women living with HIV who had low health literacy and who had complete viral load data. Adherence was assessed by unannounced pill count and follow-up viral loads were assessed by blood draw. Results showed that higher levels of health literacy and lower levels of alcohol use were the strongest predictors of achieving HIV viral load optimal outcomes. The interplay between lower health literacy and alcohol use on adherence should be the focus of future research.
