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 goal of this article is to examine the modifiable psychological causes of adherence to antihypertensive medications and propose a potential approach for studying behavioral interventions to improve medication adherence. This article briefly discusses the importance of antihypertensive adherence and the most prevalent patient-level factors associated with nonadherence. The authors examine psychological barriers to adherence, which are often the causes that are most easily modifiable with person-level interventions. . The article then reviews the work of the Science of Behavior Change Program and the Human Behavior Change Project and discusses how this work can help to develop a standardized, mechanistic approach.
