Factors Associated With Adherence To Immunosuppressive Therapy And Barriers In Asian Kidney Transplant Recipients.
Article in ImmunoTargets and therapy, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 19 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
backgroundMedication non-adherence is the major risk factor for rejection episodes. The aim of this study was to determine the risk factors associated with adherence to immunosuppressive regimen and its barriers among kidney transplant (KT) recipients.
methodsA cross-sectional study was performed in two outpatient post-transplant clinics in Mashhad, northeast of Iran. All patients who attended the clinics from August to October 2017 were included. Patients's knowledge, adherence to immunosuppressive regimen, and quality of life were measured using the Kidney Transplant Understanding Tool, Basel Assessment of Adherence to Immunosuppressive Medications Scale (BAASIS), and SF-12V2 questionnaire, respectively. The barriers in adhering immunosuppressive regimen were investigated by Immunosuppressive Therapy Barriers Scale. Logistic regression was used to screen the significant risk factors of medication non-adherence.
resultsIn this study, 244 KT recipients were included with a mean age of 39.6±12.5 years. Based on the BAASIS score, 111 (45.5%) patients were adherent to immunosuppressive regimen. Female patients were more likely to be adherent (OR=0.48,
conclusionMore than half of the KT recipients were non-adherence to immunosuppressive regimen. These findings highlight the need for designing interventions in order to reduce or eliminate these barriers and consequently increase medication adherence among KT recipients.
