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
purposePatient satisfaction is an outcome measure for low-back pain (LBP) interventions which allows clinicians to design patient-oriented treatments. The Treatment Outcome Satisfaction Questionnaire (TOSQ) is an English instrument constructed for such evaluations, and no equivalent instruments exist for the Swedish population. This study, therefore, translated TOSQ into Swedish and assessed the translated version's psychometric properties for patients with LBP.
methodsA cross-cultural adaptation was used to translate TOSQ into Swedish. Subsequently, data from 131 patients with LBP whom undergone physiotherapy were consecutively aggregated and analyzed in a Rasch rating scale model with person measures standardized at 0-100 logits to evaluate the translated scale's validity. Finally, test-retest reliability of the Swedish version of TOSQ (TOSQ-S) was quantified via an intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and the standard error of measurement (SEM) in 41 patients.
resultsTOSQ was successfully translated into Swedish; however, while some Rasch model indices supported the translated scale's unidimensionality, one out of eight items and 12 out of 131 subjects misfitted the model. Scale optimization resulted in a 6-item subconfiguration, for which all items fitted the model, person misfits were reduced to ten subjects, and the person separation index increased from 1.86 to 2.04. ICC and SEM estimates suggested acceptable reliability for the six-item TOSQ-S at 0.66 and 6.6 logits, respectively.
conclusionsA six-item TOSQ-S configuration showed acceptable psychometric properties and is suitable for measuring treatment outcome satisfaction of physiotherapy in patients with LBP.
