Assessing Risk Factors and Posttransplant Outcomes of Nonadherence Among Kidney Transplant Recipients.

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
Background: Adherence of kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) to prescribed regimens is vital for long-term graft function. This study aimed to identify adherence rates using objective and composite measures, risk factors for nonadherence, and the latter's impact on posttransplant outcomes. Methods: A retrospective single-center cohort study was conducted among KTR transplanted from January 1, 2003, to December 31, 2017. Overall nonadherence was defined as 1 or more of the following in the first-year posttransplant: (1) at least 1 missed clinic visit, (2) >30% missed laboratory visits, and (3) >40% coefficient of variation of calcineurin inhibitor levels. Logistic and Cox proportional hazards models were fitted to identify adherence risk factors and outcomes, respectively. Results: Among the included 1803 KTR, overall nonadherence was identified in 34.9%; 11.2% were nonadherent to clinic visits, 5.4% to laboratory tests, and 25.2% to medications. Recipient history of psychiatric disorders (odds artio [OR], 1.57; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.22-2.02) or pretransplant nonadherence (OR, 1.82; 95% CI, 1.31-2.54), and private drug coverage (OR, 0.62; 95% CI, 0.48-0.80) were associated with posttransplant nonadherence. Any episode of nonadherence over the first year after transplant was associated with an increased risk of total graft failure (hazard ratio [HR], 1.52; 95% CI, 1.20-1.91), death with graft function (HR, 1.51; 95% CI, 1.11-2.05), and biopsy-proven acute rejection (HR, 2.35; 95% CI, 1.38-3.99). Conclusions: Adherence among KTR is influenced by both psychosocial and socioeconomic determinants which impact posttransplant outcomes. Our results emphasize feasible methods to monitor adherence and identify high-risk KTR.
