Medication Literacy and Medication Self-Management: A Cross-Sectional Study in Hospitalised Patients (65+) With Polypharmacy.
Article in Journal of nursing management, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 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
This study aimed to examine the relationship between medication literacy and the degree to which patients are considered capable of medication self-management, the factors influencing the strength of this relationship and the factors influencing a patient's capability for medication self-management. Between January and April 2022, a cross-sectional survey was conducted on hospitalised patients (65+) with polypharmacy. Medication literacy was evaluated using the MEDication Literacy Assessment of Geriatric patients and informal caregivers (MED-fLAG). The SelfMED assessment determined a patient's capability for medication self-management. The relationship between MED-fLAG and SelfMED was explored with Pearson's
