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

designMixed methods cohort study.

objectivesTo develop and assess psychometric properties of the pediatric measure of participation (PMoP) short forms (SF) version 2.0.

settingSecondary analyses of data collected from 381 children with spinal cord injury (SCI) of at least 3-month duration living in the community, and 322 parents of children with SCI at three pediatric orthopedic hospitals in the United States.

methodsMixed methods iterative process to customize SF based on, highly relevant items, age and school analysis of item distributions; ceiling and floor effects; internal consistency and group-level reliability; correlation of SF scores with scores derived from the total item bank; and assessment of the degree to which item difficulty matched the abilities of children in the sample.

resultsPMoP SF V2.0 mean T scores ranged from 47.59 to 51.23. Overall, mean scores were somewhat higher for older children and parent respondents. Group-level reliability values ranged from 0.66 to 0.79; Cronbach's alpha values ranged from 0.79 to 0.90; ICC values ranged from 0.89 to 0.95. Pearson Correlations ranged from 0.80 to 0.95, showing good to strong correlation between scores from the SFs and total item bank for each domain. Test information function demonstrated that score estimates will be less precise at higher ends of the scale.

conclusionsPMoP SFs V2.0 contain items relevant to participation among children with SCI, and are tailored for four age groups and school status. They are recommended for use when computer adaptive testing (CAT) is not possible.
