Article in European archives of oto-rhino-laryngology : official journal of the European Federation of Oto-Rhino-Laryngological Societies (EUFOS) : affiliated with the German Society for Oto-Rhino-Laryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04742998 (Validity of a Task of Acoustic-phonetic Decoding on Anatomic Deficits in Paramedical Assessment of Speech Disorders for Patients Treated for Oral or Oropharyngeal Cancer), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract

purposeTo validate the upgraded version of the CHI with two new dimensions ("limitation of neck and/or shoulder movements", "changes in physical appearance"). To assess the relationship between CHI scores and patient self-reported management needs.

methods71 patients treated for cancer with ENT complaints and 36 controls were included. Construct validity, internal consistency, criterion validity (using visual analogue scales by dimension), clinical validity (comparison of patient and control scores) and temporal reliability (scores of a second CHI completed after a few days) were studied. A hierarchical ranking of the dimensions according to perceived difficulties was compared to the CHI scores.

resultsCorrelations were moderate to high between items of the same dimension (0.38 < r<0.73), between scores on the two new dimensions and on the VAS (r > 0.68), and between scores on the two CHI completions (r > 0.67). Cronbach's alphas are greater than 0.72. Patients and controls had significantly different scores in the two new dimensions (Mann-Whitney: p < 0.001). Sensitivity, specificity and AUC calculated between CHI scores and hierarchy ranking determined patient priority cut-off scores for eight of the eleven dimensions.

conclusionThe new CHI dimensions have good psychometric qualities. Threshold scores by dimension allow the perceived management needs to be determined.
