Validation of the German Version of Functional Oral Intake Scale (FOIS-G) for Flexible Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing (FEES).

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
The Functional Oral Intake Scale (FOIS) is the most frequently used scale for the evaluation of functional oral intake by dysphagia patients. FOIS was validated using data from Videofluoroscopic Swallowing Study (VFSS). Until now, a validated German version of FOIS for Flexible Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing (FEES) is lacking. The aim of this study was a cross-cultural validation of the German version of FOIS (FOIS-G) for FEES. The translation of the original FOIS was carried out according to the Translation, Review, Adjudication, Pretesting, Documentation (TRAPD) translation methodology. For the validation process, six experienced language therapists (SLT) retrospectively analyzed charts of 93 stroke patients. Inclusion criteria were comprised of stroke, clinical examination by an SLT within 24 h of admission, and FEES within 72 h of admission. The validity was calculated by comparison with Modified Rankin Scale (MRS), Barthel Index (BI), the Penetration-Aspiration-Scale (PAS), and a water swallow test. Spearman rank correlation of all paired raters ranged from r
