Executive functioning, caregiver monitoring, and medication adherence over time in adolescents with chronic kidney disease.
Article in Health psychology : official journal of the Division of Health Psychology, American Psychological Association, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
objectiveThe purpose of this study was to evaluate associations between executive functioning and caregiver adherence monitoring with objective antihypertensive medication adherence over 24 months in adolescents with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
methodsAdolescents (
resultsUp to 38% of adolescents had elevated executive functioning scores indicating more severe impairments, with rates varying by scale and reporter (adolescent vs. caregiver). Caregiver monitoring showed a significant, negative association with adherence, but adolescents' executive functioning was not significantly associated with adherence. Neither variable was associated with the rate of change in adherence over time.
conclusionsGiven that adolescents' executive functioning was not associated with antihypertensive medication adherence or changes in adherence over time, adherence to daily pill-form medications may involve less cognitive effort than more complex medical regimens. Higher levels of caregiver monitoring were unexpectedly associated with lower adherence levels. This unanticipated finding may reflect increased caregiver monitoring efforts when faced with adolescents' medication nonadherence, but this finding warrants further investigation. Adolescents with CKD who are nonadherent may benefit from medication adherence-promoting strategies beyond increasing caregiver monitoring.
