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: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a multidisciplinary collaborative medication literacy intervention, grounded in the Information-Motivation-Behavioral Skills (IMB) model, on the medication self-management capacity, stroke-related knowledge, medication literacy, medication adherence, and health status of stroke patients. Patients and Methods: This single-blind, two-arm RCT in a Wuxi tertiary hospital enrolled 127 participants, randomized into intervention (n = 63) and control groups (n = 64). The intervention group received a medication literacy intervention based on the Information-Motivation-Behavioral Skills (IMB) model through multidisciplinary collaboration, while the patients in the control group received standard care and follow-up after discharge. The primary outcome measure was medication self-management capacity, while secondary outcome measures included stroke-related knowledge, medication literacy, medication adherence, blood pressure, lipid levels, and unplanned readmission rates. The generalized estimating equation (GEE) model was employed to assess the effectiveness of the intervention. Results: Compared with the control group, the intervention group showed significant improvement in medication self-management capacity ( Conclusion: The medication literacy intervention based on the Information-Motivation-Behavioral Skills (IMB) model effectively enhances the medication self-management capacity of stroke patients. It positively influences several outcomes, including stroke-related knowledge, medication literacy, medication adherence, blood pressure.
