Construct validity of the SF-12 among American Indian and Alaska Native people using two known scoring methods.
Article in Journal of health care for the poor and underserved, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectiveThis study evaluated the construct validity of the 12-Item Short Form Survey Instrument (SF-12) in a cohort of American Indian and Alaska Native (AIAN) people. We evaluated two scoring methods to determine their utility in this population.
methodsParticipants (N = 11,127) were aged 18 and older, self-identified as AIAN, and had complete SF-12 interview data. Physical and mental health summary scores were calculated using traditional SF-12 (PCS12 and MCS12) and RAND-12 (PHC and MHC) scoring methods.
resultsWomen scored lower than men on the PHC, PCS12, MHC, and MCS12, as did those with more medical conditions versus none. Those aged 55 and older scored lower on the PHC and PCS12 than younger people. There was no difference in the mean MCS12 score by age and for those 31-55 and aged older than 55 for the MHC.
conclusionsThis study demonstrates the construct validity of the PCS12/MCS12 and PHC/MHC in a cohort of AIAN people.
