Validity and reliability of the Finnish version of the Multiple Sclerosis Impact Scale-29.
Article in Brain and behavior, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
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
backgroundThe Multiple Sclerosis Impact Scale-29 (MSIS-29) has been increasingly used to evaluate the self-perceived impact of multiple sclerosis (MS) on a patient.
objectivesThe aim of this study was to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Finnish version of MSIS-29 in patients with MS.
methodsA total of 553 patients with MS completed the MSIS-29 and self-administered questionnaires capturing information on demographics, disease characteristics and severity, perceived quality of life (EuroQol 5D-3L instrument), and fatigue (Fatigue Severity Scale).
resultsThe data quality for MSIS-29 was excellent, with 99.5% computable scores for the MSIS-29 physical scale and 99.3% for the MSIS-29 psychological scale. Floor and ceiling effects were minimal. Excellent Cronbach's alpha values of 0.97 and 0.90 were seen for MSIS-29 physical and psychological subscales, respectively. The physical subscale showed highest correlations with measures of physical functioning, such as disease severity and the mobility domain of the quality of life. Similarly, the psychological subscale showed highest correlations with self-reported fatigue and the anxiety/depression domains of the quality of life. MSIS-29 physical scores related strongly to disease severity, whereas the MSIS-29 psychological scores increased in mild disease but declined in more severe disease forms.
conclusionThe Finnish version of MSIS-29 has satisfactory psychometric properties. Consistent with the previous recommendations, the use of two MSIS-29 subscale scores instead of a total score was supported.
