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.

2 · The registry

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

STUDY

designOutcome measure item generation and reduction.

objectivesTo develop a patient reported outcome measure (PROM) addressing the impact of neurogenic bowel dysfunction (NBD) on individuals living with traumatic or nontraumatic spinal cord injury (SCI).

settingTertiary rehabilitation center in Toronto, Canada.

methodsA PROM based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) framework was developed using the following steps: (a) item generation, (b) item refinement through iterative review, (c) completion of items by individuals living with SCI and NBD followed by cognitive interviewing, and (d) further item refinement, item reduction, and construction of the preliminary PROM.

resultsFollowing initial item generation and iterative review, the investigative team agreed on 55 initial items. Cognitive interviewing, additional revisions, and item reduction yielded an instrument comprised of 35 items; while ensuring at least two items were retained for each of the 16 previously identified challenges of living with NBD following the onset of a SCI. Scoring for the preliminary PROM ranges from 0 to 140.

conclusionsA preliminary PROM informed by the ICF for assessing the impact of NBD post-SCI has been devised, which can be used to inform clinicians and decision-makers on optimal ways to treat this serious secondary health complication. Future work will assess the validity and clinimetric properties of the PROM.
