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

The present research examined the moderating effect of patient health engagement on the relationship between perceived stress and treatment adherence among patients with kidney failure undergoing hemodialysis. In this cross-sectional study, 184 patients from three hemodialysis outpatient clinics in Türkiye completed the Perceived Stress Scale, Patient Health Engagement Scale, and End-stage Renal Disease Adherence Questionnaire. Descriptive and inferential analyses preceded a moderation test using Hayes' PROCESS macro (Model 1) with age and weekly dialysis frequency as covariates. Results supported H1, showing that higher perceived stress was associated with lower adherence (b =- 25.90, SE = 6.38, p < 0.001), and in line with H2, the stress × engagement interaction was significant (b = 4.29, SE = 1.24, p = 0.001, ΔR
