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

Objective: To explore the associations among social support, self-efficacy, medication adherence, and discharge readiness in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD), specifically examining the mediating roles of self-efficacy and medication adherence. Methods: Participants included 463 patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) recruited from a tertiary hospital in Wuhu City (February-June 2025) via convenience sampling. To assess the key variables, we employed the Oslo-3 Social Support Scale, the GSES, the MMAS-8 Results: Among the 463 participants with valid responses, the mean score for readiness for hospital discharge was 66.75±23.29. Correlation analysis indicated that social support, self-efficacy, and medication adherence were each significantly and positively associated with discharge readiness ( Conclusion: In conclusion, our findings underscore that social support exerts a significant indirect effect on readiness for hospital discharge via the mediating role of self-efficacy. Although the moderating effect of medication adherence was not supported in this specific pathway, it emerged as a critical and independent factor related to discharge readiness. Consequently, clinical nursing interventions should prioritize a multifaceted approach: mobilizing social support systems, bolstering patients' psychological self-efficacy, and rigorously reinforcing medication adherence. Such targeted strategies are beneficial to support a safe, high-quality transition from hospital to home for patients with coronary heart disease.
