Figure 2 Program effectiveness on adherence, by type of patient program.

Notes: The study by Sewerynek et alCitation32 is one study with three intervention groups: (1) the patient counseling group; (2) the biochemical information groups; and (3) the nurse-assistance group. The squares in the lines represent the effect estimate, the lines represent the length of the confidence interval, the diamonds represents the overall result of the meta-analysis.
Abbreviations: CI, confidence interval; IV, inverse variance.
