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

This study examines medication-related self-efficacy in a linguistically diverse group of patients with diabetes, hypertension, and elevated cholesterol. A telephone survey of 509 adults conducted in six languages (English, Spanish, Korean, Vietnamese, Mandarin, and Cantonese) was analyzed. Self-efficacy was assessed with the overall Medication Understanding and Use Self-Efficacy (MUSE) score and its two subscale scores on taking medication and learning about medications. Compared with English proficient (EP) patients, patients with limited English proficiency (LEP) had a lower mean learning self-efficacy subscale score (LEP: 14.5, EP: 15.4; p<.001) and no difference in the mean taking self-efficacy subscale score (LEP: 14.4, EP: 14.6; p=.40). Receiving verbal medication information (VMI) from providers modified the relationship between LEP status and learning self-efficacy. In conclusion, among patients with chronic illnesses, LEP patients had lower medication-related self-efficacy scores than EP patients, which may put them at greater risk for medication taking errors and lower adherence.
