1 · What the graph read from 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.

Abstract

purposeTo evaluate the reliability and validity of the Italian version of the Infant-Toddler Meaningful Auditory Integration Scale (I-IT-MAIS), and to assess the normal trajectory of early prelingual auditory (EPLAD) development from birth to 24 months in a group of normal-hearing Italian children using the I-IT-MAIS.

methodsThe study consisted of four phases: item generation, reliability analysis, assessment of the normal trajectory for EPLAD, and validity analysis. A group of 120 normal-hearing children and a group of 31 deaf children wearing hearing aids and on a waiting list for cochlear implantation were enrolled. All the parents completed the I-IT-MAIS. Sixty of them completed the I-IT-MAIS twice, 2 weeks apart, for test-retest reliability analysis. The I-IT-MAIS scores were used to assess the normal trajectory of EPLAD development from birth to 24 months in normal-hearing children. For criterion validity analysis, the I-IT-MAIS scores were correlated with production of infant scale evaluation (PRISE) scores in 60 normal-hearing children. For discriminant validity analysis, the I-IT-MAIS scores obtained in normal and deaf children were compared.

resultsInternal consistency of I-IT-MAIS was satisfactory as well as individual item reliability, test-retest reliability, and discriminant validity. EPLAD development in normal-hearing Italian-speaking children was evaluated. As far as the criterion validity of the I-IT-MAIS is concerned, a strong correlation between I-IT-MAIS and PRISE scores was found.

conclusionI-IT-MAIS is reliable and valid. Its application is recommended for clinical practice and outcome research.
