Linking the Psychosocial Impact of Assistive Devices Scale (PIADS) to the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health.
Article in Quality of life research : an international journal of quality of life aspects of treatment, care and rehabilitation, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
purposeAssistive technologies are widely implemented in clinical and research settings. Despite their dissemination, the psychosocial impact of their adoption still deserves further consideration. The aim of the present study is to determine the degree of compatibility between the Psychosocial Impact of Assistive Devices Scale (PIADS) and the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF).
methodsSix health professionals (two neurologists, one neuro-rehabilitation technician, two psychologists, one university professor of rehabilitation) created a technical board to discuss upon the PIADS-ICF linking. The standardized linking methodology was applied, and a Delphi technique was used to examine consensus.
resultsFive Delphi sessions were required to reach 100% of consensus and to finalize the procedure. Of the 26 PIADS' items, 23 were linked to an ICF category: 9 items were endorsed at the 3rd ICF level, and 14 items at the 2nd ICF level. Two items were classified as "not defined" and 1 item as "not covered".
conclusionThe study highlighted the conceptual connection between the PIADS and the ICF framework and set a bio-psychosocial standpoint by which accounting the role of assistive devices in rehabilitation settings.
