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

designPsychometric study.

objectivesTo cross-culturally adapt the spinal cord injury-falls concern scale (SCI-FCS) to the Brazilian Portuguese language and to evaluate its measurement properties.

settingSARAH Network of Rehabilitation Hospitals, Belo Horizonte, Brazil.

methodsThe SCI-FCS was translated and culturally adapted to the Brazilian- Portuguese language, following recommended guidelines. The following measurement properties were verified: internal consistency (Cronbach's α), test-retest reliability (ICC and quadratic-weighted kappa coefficients), and construct validity (Rasch analysis).

resultsOne-hundred and thirty individuals participated. The median SCI-FCS-Brazil score was 27 (22-34). The Cronbach's α was 0.95; ICC was 0.92 (95% CI, 0.86-0.95) for the total test-retest scores, and the Kappa coefficients ranged from 0.04 to 0.87 (95% CI, 0.01-1) for the item-level reliability. Rasch analysis reliability index was 0.81 and 0.98 and the separation index was 2.10 and 6.25 for the persons and items, respectively. Both items and persons fitted the statistics model's expectations, ensuring its unidimensionality.

conclusionsThe SCI-FCS-Brazil showed adequate measurement properties. Its use in manual wheelchair users with SCI is recommended to help defining rehabilitation strategies.
