1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Purpose: Medication non-adherence remains a problem in the long-term management of chronic disease among patients with disabilities. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of medication non-adherence among patients with chronic diseases and disabilities in Indonesia and to identify the factors associated with medication non-adherence among these patients. Patients and Methods: This cross-sectional analysis was conducted using national data from the 2014 Indonesian Family Survey (IFLS-5). A self-report questionnaire was used to collect information on all chronic diseases, disability, medication non-adherence, and sociodemographic characteristics. Logistic regression analysis was carried out to identify factors contributing to medication non-adherence. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were presented. Results: The study included 1908 patients with chronic diseases and disabilities, with 66.3% identified as non-adherent to medication. Factors associated with medication non-adherence included being aged 15 to 30 years (OR = 1.65; 95% CI = 1.19-2.30) and 31 to 45 years (OR = 1.36; 95% CI = 1.01-1.84), self-perceived health status as somewhat healthy (OR = 1.36; 95% CI = 1.09-1.69) or very unhealthy (OR = 1.73; 95% CI = 1.08-2.77), had no active days missed due to poor health (OR = 1.51; 95% CI = 1.09-2.10), and non-use of any hearing, visual, or walking aids (OR = 1.24; 95% CI = 1.01-1.52). Conclusion: More than half of the patients (66.3%) with chronic diseases and disabilities were non-adherent to their medication. Therefore, interventions designed to improve medication adherence in this population should consider specific patient-related factors.
