Exploring medication adherence and illness perception in patients with neuroimmune diseases: a cross-sectional study.
Article in Frontiers in immunology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
Objective: Neuroimmune diseases (NIDs) including myasthenia gravis (MG), multiple sclerosis (MS), and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) require long-term medication adherence to optimize prognosis. This study aimed to investigate factors influencing medication adherence and its association with illness perception among NIDs patients. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted at the Outpatient Department of Neurology, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, from March to August 2025. Patients with clinically diagnosed MG, MS, or NMOSD and ≥ 6 months of treatment were enrolled. The questionnaire on basic information, the Eight-Item Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS-8), and the Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire (BIPQ) were used for data collection. SPSS 27.0, Prism and hiplot.cn were used for statistical analysis and illustration. Results: A total of 137 valid questionnaires were collected via face-to-face interviews. Univariate analyses showed significant differences in illness perception ( Conclusion: Illness perception and average income are key factors affecting medication adherence in NIDs patients, with diseases and income disparities. Individualized education targeting cognitive and emotional perceptions, along with economic considerations in treatment, may improve long-term outcomes.
