Application of MAT Methodology in the Evaluation of Prescribing Adherence to Clinical Practice Guidelines for Secondary Prevention of Coronary Heart Disease in Post-Acute Coronary Syndrome Patients in Kuwait.
Article in Frontiers in pharmacology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Quantification of prescribers' adherence to evidence-based guidelines can be used as an outcome measure to assess the impact of services on the quality of medication use. Additionally, it can help in reducing inappropriate interventions and ensure that high-quality care is provided to patients. This study aimed to evaluate prescribing practices for secondary prevention of coronary heart disease (CHD) in post-acute coronary syndromes (ST-elevation myocardial infarction [STEMI] or non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome [NSTEACS]) patients using two medication assessment tools (MATs) at secondary and tertiary health-care settings in Kuwait. Both MATs were developed and validated based on the relevant guidelines issued by the European Society of Cardiology and the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association. A quantitative cross-sectional multicenter study was conducted on 460 patients' medical records collected randomly from six health-care facilities in Kuwait. Application of MAT
