Determination of the cut-off point of the Functional Independence Measure as a predictor of adverse events in patients with acute stroke.
Observational study in The Journal of international medical research, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Objective This study was performed to determine the cut-off point of the Functional Independence Measure (FIM) to discriminate patients with acute stroke who develop adverse events during their stay in a stroke care unit (SCU). Methods All consecutive patients with stroke admitted to a single institute from January to March 2015 were enrolled. They were divided into two groups according to their average daily energy intake in the SCU: ≥66% or <66% of the target (high- and low-energy group, respectively). A receiver operating characteristic curve was used to determine the cut-off point of the FIM to predict adverse events in patients with acute stroke. Results The length of stay in the SCU was significantly longer and the serum C-reactive protein level (CRP) was significantly higher in the low- than high-energy group (7 vs. 4 days and 2.15 vs. 0.20 mg/dL, respectively). The total FIM score cut-off value was 63 points. Conclusions An energy intake of <66% of the target was associated with a significantly longer stay in the SCU and a higher CRP level. A total FIM score cut-off value of 63 points is useful to discriminate patients with adverse events among those with acute stroke.
