Construct validity of the NIH Toolbox Cognition Battery in individuals with stroke.
Article in Rehabilitation psychology, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04681742 (Feasibility Testing of Cognitive Strategy Training in Post-Concussive Syndrome), which is not on this map. Cited by 36 papers, 4 of them syntheses 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
objectiveThe National Institutes of Health (NIH) Toolbox (NIHTB) for the Assessment of Behavior and Neurological Function Cognition Battery (NIHTB-CB) provides a brief assessment (approximately 30 min) of key components of cognition. This article examines construct validity to support the clinical utility of the NIHTB-CB in individuals with stroke. RESEARCH
methodA total of 131 individuals with stroke (n = 71 mild stroke; n = 60 moderate/severe stroke) completed the NIHTB-CB. Univariate analyses were conducted to examine the cognitive profiles of the two different stroke groups (mild vs. moderate/severe stroke) on NIHTB-CB measures and composite scores. Pearson correlations were conducted between NIHTB-CB and established measures to examine convergent and discriminant validity. Effect sizes and clinical impairment rates for the different NIHTB-CB measures and composite scores were also examined.
resultsParticipants experiencing moderate to severe stroke had poorer performance than did individuals with mild stroke on several of the NIHTB cognition measures. Evidence of convergent validity was provided by moderate to strong correlations between the NIHTB measures and the corresponding standard neuropsychological test (Pearson rs ranged from 0.31 to 0.88; median = .60). Evidence of discriminant validity was provided by smaller correlations between different cognitive domains than correlations of measures within the same domain. Effect sizes for composite and subtest scores regarding stroke severity were generally moderate-to-large. In addition, 42% of the sample were exhibiting mild cognitive impairment (i.e., ≥2 low scores on fluid tests).
conclusionsFindings provide support for the construct validity of the NIHTB-CB in individuals with stroke. (PsycINFO Database Record
