Adherence-enhancing interventions for pharmacological and oxygen therapy in patients with COPD: a systematic review and component network meta-analyses.

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
introductionAdherence to COPD management strategies is complex, and it is unclear which intervention may enhance it.
objectivesWe aim to evaluate the effectiveness of adherence-enhancing interventions, alone or compared to interventions, for patients with COPD.
methodsThis review comprises a component network meta-analysis with a structured narrative synthesis. We searched MEDLINE, Embase, CENTRAL, CINAHL and trial registries on 9 September 2023. We included controlled studies that explored adherence in patients with COPD. Two review authors independently performed the study selection, data extraction and the risk of bias assessment. We involved patients with COPD in developing this systematic review through focus group interviews and displayed the findings in pre-designed logic models.
resultsWe included 33 studies with 5775 participants. We included 13 studies in the component network meta-analysis that explored adherence. It was mainly assessed through questionnaires. As a continuous outcome, there was a tendency mainly for education (standardised mean difference 1.26, 95% CI 1.13-1.38, very low certainty of evidence) and motivation (mean difference 1.85, 95% CI 1.19-2.50, very low certainty of evidence) to improve adherence. As a dichotomous outcome (
conclusionsEducation may improve adherence and quality of life in COPD patients. Patient focus group interviews indicated that interventions that strengthen patients' self-efficacy and help them to achieve individual goals are the most helpful.
