Interventions to increase the pharmacological adherence on arterial hypertension in Latin America: a systematic review.
Synthesis in International journal of public health, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
objectivesThis review aims to summarize evidence on the effectiveness of interventions to improve antihypertensive drug adherence in Latin America and the Caribbean.
methodsA systematic search from January 2000 to October 2018 was conducted through LILACS, SciELO, MEDLINE, Health Evidence, Cochrane Library and Embase. Search terms were in English, Portuguese and Spanish through the MeSH and DECS.
resultsSeven articles were included in the study. The main discoveries indicate that implemented interventions to increase the adherence are very varied. Likewise, a high variability in levels of adherence was found (46-94%) and we could evidence that indirect measurements were used. Lastly, it was evidenced that the obstacles for adherence were mainly associated with the adverse effects of antihypertensive medication, the dosage and forgetfulness of the medication intake given the age of the patients.
conclusionsThere is no single strategy to increase pharmacological adherence in Latin America since the studies used different strategies. Additional efforts are required to standardize cost-effective interventions to increase pharmacological adherence in Latin America.
