The Use of Electronic Personal Health Records to Improve Medication Adherence and Patient Engagement: A Randomized Study of Non-valvular Atrial Fibrillation Patients.
Article in The Journal of innovations in cardiac rhythm management, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Embolic stroke is a major complication of atrial fibrillation (AF) that frequently results in disability or death. The administration of oral anticoagulation can reduce stroke risk in AF patients; however, medication non-adherence can eliminate this benefit. To date, reported patient adherence rates to oral anticoagulation regimens vary. The objective of the current study was to examine the impact of medication-specific education delivered via a personal health record (PHR) system on medication adherence. A randomized, prospective study was conducted from February 2014 to June 2014 at Parkview Health, a not-for-profit, community-based health care clinic that serves a northeastern Indiana population of more than 820,000.
