| Variables | Adjusted OR | 95% CI | P value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Model a) | |||
| Educational intervention | 0.16 | 0.06 - 0.39 | < 0.001 |
| Baseline characteristics | |||
| Any intentional adherence error | 1.62 | 0.68 - 3.86 | 0.276 |
| Any unintentional adherence error | 1.29 | 0.53 - 3.15 | 0.572 |
| Therapy managed by the caregiver | 0.71 | 0.29 - 1.74 | 0.452 |
| Model b)† | |||
| Educational intervention | 0.16 | (0.07 - 0.39) | < 0.001 |
† Model adjusted even for a large number of prescribed drugs (highest tertile vs rest, i.e. 7+ drugs vs rest) besides the baseline covariates of Model a.
