Effects of Education on Treatment Adherence and Fatigue in Individuals with Treatment-Inadherent Iron Deficiency Anemia: A Randomized Trial in Türkiye.
Article in Patient preference and adherence, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Purpose: This study was conducted to determine the effects of education given to individuals with iron deficiency anemia on treatment compliance and fatigue. Methods: The study included 63 patients, divided into intervention and control groups, who were admitted to or received inpatient treatment at the State Hospital Internal Medicine and Hematology Clinic between December 2023 and June 2024. The study was designed using an intervention design with a pretest, interim, and posttest control group. Our study examined treatment compliance and fatigue levels. Results: At pre-test, there were no significant differences between the Intervention (MMAS-4: 0.58 ± 0.76; Fatigue: 69.86 ± 18.66; Energy: 22.72 ± 8.03) and Control groups (MMAS-4: 0.56 ± 0.67; Fatigue: 74.30 ± 20.95; Energy: 23.66 ± 9.44; p>0.05). At interim and post-test, treatment adherence significantly improved in the Intervention group (Interim 3.35 ± 0.71; Post-test 3.65 ± 0.84) compared to the Control group (Interim 0.59 ± 0.87; Post-test 0.38 ± 0.83; p<0.001).Fatigue scores decreased significantly in the Intervention group (Interim 69.86 ± 18.66; Post-test 34.38 ± 10.15) but increased in the Control group (Interim 74.30 ± 20.95; Post-test 85.32 ± 22.45; p<0.001). Energy scores improved in the Intervention group (Interim 22.72 ± 8.03; Post-test 37.56 ± 5.67) while declining in the Control group (Interim 23.66 ± 9.44; Post-test 20.45 ± 11.02; p<0.001). Conclusion: Nurse-led education significantly improved adherence and reduced fatigue, supporting integration of structured patient education in IDA management.
