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

objective: The purpose of this study was to examine post-hospitalization outpatient drug adherence in patients with severe psychiatric illness, including bipolar disorder and schizophrenia, and to investigate factors associated with drug adherence.

methods: Eighty-one patients diagnosed with schizophrenia or bipolar disorder who were hospitalized due to aggravation of psychiatric symptoms were monitored. At hospitalization, we conducted clinical assessments such as the Clinical Global Impression-Severity, Drug Attitude Inventory, Contour Drawing Rating Scale, Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support scale, and patients’ demographic factors. We measured drug adherence using the Medication Event Monitoring System (MEMS), pill count, and patients’ self-report upon out-patients visits, 4 and 24 weeks after discharge.

results: The mean values of the various measures of adherence were as follows: MEMS (4 weeks) 84.8%, pill count (4 weeks) 94.6%, self-report (4 weeks) 92.6%, MEMS (24 weeks) 81.6%, pill count (24 weeks) 90.6%, and self-report (24 weeks) 93.6%. The adherence agreement between MEMS, pill count, and self-report was moderate (4 weeks intraclass correlation [ICC]=0.54, 24 weeks ICC=0.52). Non-adherence (MEMS ≤0.08) was observed in 26.4% of the patients at 4 weeks and 37.7% at 24 weeks. There was a negative correlation between drug adherence assessed 4 weeks after discharge and Contour Drawing Rating Scale difference score (r=-0.282,

conclusion: Patients’ attitude towards their medication and their degree of physical dissatisfaction influenced post-hospitalization drug adherence in severe psychiatric patients.
