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

objectivesTo assess perceived levels of community reintegration, and examine whether self-efficacy relates to community reintegration among persons with a TSCI.

designA cross-sectional exploratory survey. SETTINGS: Cape Metropolitan Area. Western Cape Province, South Africa.

participantsA hundred and eight (108) conveniently selected community-dwelling adults between the ages of 19 and 71 years old, who sustained a TSCI more than 1-year post-injury. OUTCOMES MEASURES: Community Integration Measure (CIM) and the Moorong Self-Efficacy (MSES).

resultsThe CIM score ranged between 10 and 50 with an overall mean score of 31.48; SD = 12.5. CIM item 10 "I have something useful and productive to do in this community" was the least scored by participants (M = 2.50, SD = 1.4). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that social functioning factor of self-efficacy, accommodation type, and level of injury were the only variables influencing perceived community reintegration that explained 47.3% of the total variance, of which social functioning factor of self-efficacy was the strongest predictor that alone explained 33% of the variance in the model after controlling for the influence of accommodation and the level of injury.

conclusionCommunity reintegration achieved by individuals with a TSCI in this study is generally low. Individuals' perceptions about community reintegration are affected by the community in which one lives. Self-efficacy plays a major role in community reintegration following a TSCI. However, reintegration is largely dependent on social functioning rather than the activity of daily living factors of self-efficacy.
