1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Understanding patient non-adherence to prescribed antibiotics can inform clinical practices, patient counseling, and antibiotic efficacy study design in dermatology. The primary objective was to determine the rate of and reasons for antibiotic non-adherence in the dermatologic surgery setting. The secondary objective was to test the applicability of previously studied survey questions for antibiotic non-adherence screening in the dermatologic surgery setting. Five academic outpatient dermatologic surgery centers across the United States conducted one multicenter prospective cohort study. Dermatologic surgery patients ≥ 18 years of age who were prescribed an antibiotic were included as part of this study. 15.2% (42/276) of patients did not adhere to their antibiotic regimen after dermatologic surgery. Most common reasons for incomplete antibiotic courses included forgotten antibiotics (42.9%,18/42) and side effects (28.6%, 12/42). Previously evaluated questions to identify and predict non-adherence had modest performance in the dermatologic surgery setting (Area under the curve of 0.669 [95% CI (0.583-0.754)]). Antibiotic non-adherence after skin surgery is prevalent and commonly due to reasons that physicians can address with patients.
