Adherence to Treatment in Patients with Chronic Diseases: From Alertness to Persistence.
Article in International journal of community based nursing and midwifery, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 22 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundAdherence to treatment is a process that begins with alertness about the disease and has to end with staying in treatment. It is a concern to all health care disciplines. The aim of this study was to explore the experience of adherence to treatment patients with chronic diseases.
methodsThis qualitative study was conducted during a period of 6 months in Golestan province in Iran in 2017. In-depth semi-structured interviews were done with a purposive sample of 15 patients with chronic disease (i.e. Chronic renal failure (CRF), Hypertension (HTN), Multiple sclerosis (MS) and Diabetes). Data were analyzed using qualitative content analysis in MAXQDA Software.
resultsThe analysis of the data in this study led to the development of ten subthemes and four themes emerged as follows: motivation, cohesion, commitment and empowerment which are necessary components for adherence to treatment in patients. "Moving from alertness to persistence" emerged as the main theme.
conclusionThe findings of the study offer helpful insights into the concept of adherence to treatment and its components for health care providers, which can be used to develop the best possible care plan and may help health care providers to support the patients to have an active role for following treatment rather than just doing it.
