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
objectiveTo assess the internal consistency, reliability, and clinical validity of a French version of the M.D. Anderson Dysphagia Inventory (Fr-MDADI).
methodsPatients addressed in the Swallowing Clinics of CHU Saint-Pierre Hospital (Brussels) and EpiCURA hospital (Ath, Belgium) for dysphagia completed Fr-MDADI, eating assessment tool-10 (EAT-10), dysphagia handicap index (DHI), and benefited from fiberoptic endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (FEES) and videofluoroscopy. Seventy-two asymptomatic individuals composed the control group. The reliability of Fr-MDADI was assessed through a test-retest procedure. The validity was assessed by comparing Fr-MDADI with EAT-10 scores. Normative value of Fr-MDADI was calculated through the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.
resultsForty-two patients and 77 healthy individuals completed the evaluations (33 males). The main etiology of dysphagia was head and neck cancers. The internal consistency was high regarding the Cronbach's alpha (0.864). The test-retest reliability was high for Fr-MDADI total scores (r
conclusionThe Fr-MDADI is a reliable and valid self-administered tool in the evaluation of the dysphagia of French-speaking patients.
