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

Background: Medication adherence in stroke patients remains a significant challenge, impacting treatment efficacy and patient outcomes. This study aimed to model the structural relationships predicting medication adherence based on social support and social health in stroke patients, focusing on the mediating roles of self-esteem and leisure time in Tehran. Methods: This correlational study used structural equation modeling. The statistical population included all stroke patients referred to the Neurology Clinic of Firoozgar Hospital in Tehran in 2021. A sample of 255 participants was selected through a convenience sampling method. Participants completed questionnaires on medication adherence (Lin & et al, 2018), social support (Wax and Reader, 1986), self-esteem(Rosenberg, 1965), social health (Keyes, C. L., & Shapiro, A. D, 2004), and leisure time (Wang, 2019 ). Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation and structural equation modeling methods. Results: The results indicate that SEM analysis demonstrated excellent model fit (χ²/df=2.91, CFI=0.97, RMSEA=0.062). Significant direct effects were found: social support → self-esteem (β=0.34, * Conclusion: The findings demonstrate that psychological factors significantly influence medication adherence and, ultimately, patient recovery. Strengthening social support, self-esteem, social health, and leisure time can enhance treatment outcomes and facilitate better management of stroke patients.
