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: Patients' illness perceptions are cognitive representations or beliefs structured around their condition. These perceptions have been associated with several important outcomes, including functional recovery and treatment adherence. Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the association between illness perception and related factors with treatment adherence among hemodialysis patients with cardio-renal syndrome in Yemen. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at two dialysis centers in Hadhramout Governorate, Yemen, from February to May 2021. Three self-administered questionnaires were used to collect the data. Data analysis was performed using SPSS version 23.0 with a significance level set at Results: In total, 100 patients answered all questions with a total response rate of 100%. The mean age ± standard deviation of participants was 53.46 ± 14.24 years. Most patients (87%) had a low level of treatment adherence, particularly in medication and diet restriction adherence. Furthermore, most patients (90%) had a moderate-to-high level of perceived illness threat. The findings revealed no significant correlation between overall illness perception and overall treatment adherence ( Conclusions: Our research found that most patients with cardio-renal syndrome had poor treatment adherence and had a moderate-to-high level of perceived illness threat. The results of the study showed that perceived consequences and perceived timeline subscales of illness perceptions had a negative correlation with overall treatment adherence, and the results revealed a significant positive link between adherence and cardiac disorders, as well as a strong correlation between adherence and income level. The findings suggest that nurses and clinicians should assess the illness perceptions specific to patients with cardio-renal syndrome disease when developing multidisciplinary interventions to help patients cope with and manage different aspects of their condition.
