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
Objective: This study aims to assess the compliance with anti-hypoglycemic drugs among postpartum patients with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) through a questionnaire survey, and to examine the factors that may influence this adherence. The goal is to enhance pharmacists' medication practices and improve glycemic control. Method: Based on the theory of risk perception attitude framework, the study selected pregnant women who delivered at Nanjing DrumTower Hospital's obstetrics department from 2020 to 2022 and were diagnosed with GDM as the research subjects. The Morisky Medication Adherence Scale was used to evaluate their medication adherence. The correlation matrix was used to express whether there is a correlation between risk perception, self-efficacy, and medication adherence. Finally, a linear hierarchical regression model was used to present the moderating effect of self-efficacy on the relationship between risk perception and medication adherence. Results: A total of 80 postpartum GDM patients receiving medication intervention were included in the study to assess medication adherence. The median score on the MMAS-8 scale was 3.75 (3.50, 5.50). The results of the Spearman test showed a positive correlation between GDM patients' perception of future diabetes risk and postpartum medication adherence (r= 0.778, P<0.001). Additionally, self-efficacy was also positively correlated with medication adherence (r= 0.631, P<0.001). The results of the linear stratified regression model indicated that self-efficacy moderates the relationship between risk perception and medication adherence. Conclusion: The results of the MMAS-8 scale survey indicate poor medication adherence among postpartum GDM patients, with a significantly lower rate of good medication adherence compared to general T2DM patients. The stratified regression analysis demonstrates that risk perception and self-efficacy jointly influence postpartum medication adherence, and the risk perception attitude model can predict medication adherence among GDM patients postpartum.
