Psychological predictors of nutritional adherence in adolescents with cystic fibrosis.
Article in Clinical nutrition ESPEN, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
BACKGROUND &
aimsThe CF medical regimen is notoriously burdensome, comprised of respiratory treatments, oral medications, and nutritional demands. Adequate caloric intake has been identified as a challenge over the lifespan; however, we lack detailed information about nutritional adherence in teens, and the contextual drivers of these behaviors. Adolescence is a time of increased responsibility, reduced parental monitoring, and growing peer connections. There is no literature examining the impact of familial attitudes (e.g., privacy, disease disclosure) and the social milieu (e.g., friendships) on teen nutritional adherence behavior. We hypothesized that better teen nutritional adherence behaviors would be predicted by more favorable familial privacy attitudes, better relationship quality, and greater comfort in disease disclosure.
methodsAssessment included questionnaires of caregiver privacy attitudes, relationship quality, and disease disclosure. Teens tracked PERT adherence for 1 month and logged daily caloric intake for 2 weeks. This produced detailed information on daily enzyme adherence, caloric intake, and eating frequency.
resultsAverage PERT adherence, caloric intake, and eating frequency were suboptimal in this sample. More comfort in disease disclosure and less teen/mother discord predicted better PERT adherence. Higher caregiver privacy and lower teen closeness with friends predicted greater caloric intake and eating frequency.
conclusionsResults suggest that comfort in disease disclosure supports consistent PERT adherence across environments. Adolescents with close friendships may have less time for self-management (e.g., eating). Future research should collect more detailed information about friendships of teens with CF. Results suggest that daily structure and positive, appropriately supportive relationships should be encouraged by care teams.
