Knowledge, attitude, and readiness of pharmacists toward medication therapy management for patients with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder: a cross-sectional quantitative study.

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
backgroundMedication Therapy Management (MTM) is a patient-centered service that optimizes drug therapy, improves clinical outcomes, and enhances quality of life. Pharmacists play a critical role in MTM services and provide comprehensive medication management for patients with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
aimThe aim of this study was to assess the knowledge, attitude, and readiness of Iraqi community pharmacists regarding MTM services for ADHD patients.
methodA cross-sectional study was conducted among 480 Iraqi pharmacists working in community pharmacies in Baghdad. Data were collected using a pre-validated, self-administered questionnaire with 34 items.
resultsResults showed that only 127 (26.5%) pharmacists had good knowledge, 146 (30.4%) had good attitude, and 148 (30.8%) had high readiness regarding MTM services in ADHD patients. Multivariate analyses showed that a higher number of hours worked per week in the hospital was significantly associated with a lower likelihood of high attitude, whereas practicing MTM services, high knowledge, and high attitude were significantly associated with a higher likelihood of high readiness.
conclusionThe findings of this study indicate that knowledge, attitudes, and readiness for MTM services for ADHD patients are inadequate. Therefore, there is an urgent need for effective educational strategies to better prepare pharmacists for their potential role in the community, particularly for providing MTM services to ADHD patients.
