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
Background: This study aimed to assess medication adherence, glycemic control, and their influencing factors among outpatients at an Indonesian clinic with type 2 diabetes. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among patients with type 2 diabetes at a hospital-based clinic in Surabaya, Indonesia, from September to December 2018. A purposive sampling was used; patients aged 18 years and older, had diabetes and any comorbidity, received hypoglycemic agents, and provided written informed consent were included. The previously validated Brief Medication Questionnaire was used to measure medication adherence, while glycosylated hemoglobin (A1C) levels were used to evaluate glycemic control. Binary logistic regression was used to identify factors associated with medication adherence and glycemic control. Results: Of 321 patients enrolled in the study, 268 (83.5%) patients were medication nonadherent. Patients who did not engage regularly in physical activity (aOR: 0.49, 95% CI: 0.26-0.93) was more likely to be medication adherent. Poor glycemic control (A1C: >7%) was observed in 106 (33.0%) of the patients. Patients who used a combination of oral hypoglycemic agents and insulin (aOR: 2.74, 95% CI: 1.09-6.86), did not take biguanide (aOR: 2.73, 95% CI: 1.16-6.43), reported hyperglycemia (aOR: 4.24, 95% CI: 1.53-11.81), and had comorbid diseases (aOR: 4.33, 95% CI: 1.08-17.34) increased the risk of having poor glycemic control. Patients who were more likely to achieve good glycemic control were male (aOR: 0.39, 95% CI: 0.20-0.74) and aged older (aOR: 0.95, 95% CI: 0.92-0.99). Conclusions: The proportion of patients who were medication nonadherent was much higher than those with poor glycemic control. Whereas regular exercise was a predictor of nonadherence, age, sex, diabetes medication, not taking biguanide, acute complications, and comorbidity were predictors of poor glycemic control. Therefore, strategies are needed to improve medication adherence and glycemic control.
