Quality of life, health status, and health service utilization related to a new measure of health literacy: FLIGHT/VIDAS.
Article in Patient education and counseling, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT02922439 (Health Literacy Assessment and Intervention to Reduce Disparities), which is not on this map. Cited by 19 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.

Abstract
objectiveResearchers have identified significant limitations in some currently used measures of health literacy. The purpose of this paper is to present data on the relation of health-related quality of life, health status, and health service utilization to performance on a new measure of health literacy in a nonpatient population.
methodsThe new measure was administered to 475 English- and Spanish-speaking community-dwelling volunteers along with existing measures of health literacy and assessments of health-related quality of life, health status, and healthcare service utilization. Relations among measures were assessed via correlations and health status and utilization was tested across levels of health literacy using ANCOVA models.
resultsThe new health literacy measure is significantly related to existing measures of health literacy as well as to participants' health-related quality of life. Persons with lower levels of health literacy reported more health conditions, more frequent physical symptoms, and greater healthcare service utilization.
conclusionThe new measure of health literacy is valid and shows relations to measures of conceptually related constructs such as quality of life and health behaviors. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS: FLIGHT/VIDAS may be useful to researchers and clinicians interested in a computer administered and scored measure of health literacy.
