Medication-Related Knowledge and Medication Adherence in Pediatric and Adolescent Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease.

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
backgroundNon-adherence to oral maintenance therapy in adolescents with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a significant healthcare problem. Knowledge of the prescribed medication can increase medication adherence. We aimed to investigate the relationship between medication adherence and disease-related knowledge of pediatric and adolescent patients with IBD.
methodsWe conducted a "pop quiz" to investigate the disease-related knowledge of pediatric patients with IBD who were followed-up at our institution and reviewed their medical records, including data on sex, diagnosis, age at diagnosis, and disease duration. Medication adherence was evaluated by the doctor in charge, and ≥ 80% of patients constituted the "good adherence group."
resultsOf 93 patients, 59 (63.4%) were males, and 78 (83.9%) had Crohn's disease. The mean age at diagnosis was 13.8 ± 2.8 years; mean follow-up duration, 4.8 ± 3.4 years; and mean patient age, 18.6 ± 3.7 years. Only 65 patients (69.9%) knew the exact name of the medication they were currently taking, and 34 (36.6%) knew the correct dose. Only 15 patients (16.1%) knew the name of the medications they were previously taking. A total of 64 patients (66.8%) showed an adherence rate of 80% for the weekly prescribed oral medication. The patients in the poor adherence group were significantly older than those in the good adherence group (
conclusionAdolescent IBD patients have lower oral medication adherence. Knowledge of the prescribed medications taken previously, and the adverse effects of these medications are associated with good adherence. IBD specialists should educate the patients regarding the disease and about their medication.
