They just don't take their medicines: Reframing medication adherence in asthma from frustration to opportunity.
Review in Pediatric pulmonology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Assessing and addressing suboptimal adherence to asthma medications is a key component in the treatment of all children with asthma, particularly those with difficult-to-treat asthma. However, parents often overreport adherence to asthma medications. Increased medication adherence could lead to improved outcomes in the form of better asthma control and decreased asthma exacerbations, as well as decreased healthcare utilization costs. Yet there are many complex factors that affect medication adherence, and barriers are often different in each family. Social determinants of health, complex healthcare relationships, and patient-related factors may all affect medication adherence. Multicomponent patient-centered strategies, as well as strategies that utilize technology and habit formation strategies may be helpful in improving medication adherence. Further study is needed to reliably and sustainably improve medication adherence in children with asthma across the broader population; in some populations, alternate diagnoses, adjusting therapy, and other intervention may be required to improve asthma control and health.
