Factors associated with treatment adherence to treatment among in patients with type 2 diabetes in Iran: A cross-sectional study.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Introduction: Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disorder that affects millions of people worldwide. Adherence to treatment is a key determinant to proper management. This study aimed to assess the factors associated treatment adherence in patients with type 2 diabetes. Materials and methods: We conducted this cross-sectional study on 704 patients with type 2 diabetes referred to three diabetes clinics in Kerman, Iran. We used treatment adherence questionnaire and functional communicative critical health literacy (FCCHL) to collect data and descriptive statistics, as well as Pearson correlation coefficient and multivariate regression analysis to analyze data. Significance level was <0.05. Results: The study results showed that health literacy, HbA1c, and income were main predictors of diabetes treatment adherence. The patients' adherence increased as their health literacy increased. The patients' HbA1c decreases as their adherence increased. We found a 2.54-point increase in the treatment adherence score for those with sufficient income and a 0.76-point increase in the treatment adherence score for those with relatively sufficient income compared with those with insufficient income. Conclusion: We found several factors affecting diabetes treatment adherence. Planning theory-based interventions can be helpful to improve the determinants.
