Validity and Responsiveness of a 10-Item Patient-Reported Measure of Physical Function in a Rheumatoid Arthritis Clinic Population.

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
objectiveWe assessed implementation of the 10-item Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) physical function form (PF-10a) in routine practice in a racially and ethnically diverse population with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Objectives were to determine feasibility of implementing PF-10a in the electronic health record (EHR) and PF-10a validity and longitudinal responsiveness.
methodsClinical and demographic data were abstracted from EHRs for all RA patients seen at a university-based rheumatology clinic between February 2013 and February 2015. We evaluated floor and ceiling (edge) effects and construct validity of PF-10a in a subgroup of patients with Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ) scores (n = 189). We used linear mixed-effects models to assess responsiveness of PF-10a to longitudinal changes in the Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI) for patients in the entire clinical cohort, with both scores recorded on at least 2 encounters (n = 326).
resultsHalf of the patients were nonwhite, and 15% were non-English speakers. Over a 2-year period, PF10a was successfully implemented; 97% of patients and 89% of encounters had at least 1 measurement performed. PF-10a had fewer ceiling (defined as best) effects than the HAQ (8% versus 22%), and convergent validity was high (r = -0.85). PF-10a was sensitive to expected differences (older versus younger patients, more versus less active disease). Longitudinal changes in PF-10a were highly associated with changes in the CDAI score (P < 0.0001).
conclusionPF-10a was feasible to implement in a diverse RA population. It strongly correlates with the HAQ but has fewer ceiling effects and is responsive to changes in RA disease activity, suggesting its validity for use in routine clinical practice.
