Influence of ethnicity on adherence to nonsurgical interventions for COPD: a scoping review.
Article in ERJ open research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 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
Objective: Poor therapeutic adherence and the contributing factors have been extensively researched in several chronic diseases, including COPD. However, the influence of ethnicity on adherence to nonsurgical treatment interventions for COPD ( Method: This scoping review was designed based on the refined frameworks of Arksey and O'Malley, developed by JBI (Joanna Briggs Institute). Systematic searches were performed across three databases: CINHAL (EBSCO), MEDLINE (Ovid) and Embase (Ovid). Results: Out of 3654 identified records, 37 studies were deemed eligible for inclusion; these were conducted in various countries and involved populations of diverse ethnic groups diagnosed with COPD. The included studies considered provision and/or adherence to medication (n=8, 21.6%), smoking cessation (n=11, 29.7%), influenza vaccinations (n=7, 18.9%), pulmonary rehabilitation (n=11, 29.7%) and oxygen therapy (n=2, 5.4%). Outcomes varied widely between studies within a single intervention ( Conclusion: This review indicated the presence of poor adherence to nonsurgical interventions among people from minority ethnic backgrounds living with COPD. However, due to the heterogeneity in population groups considered and compared within the individual studies, it is challenging to identify and understand the key inequalities influencing adherence to nonsurgical interventions. Further research is needed to better explore this.
