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

objectiveTo describe the development, evaluation, and psychometric properties of a new instrument that measures fertility preservation (FP) knowledge in women with cystic fibrosis (CF) titled the Knowledge of FP in Women With CF Instrument (KFP-WCFI).

designThe 10-item KFP-WCFI was developed and evaluated through a cross-sectional survey.

settingParticipants were recruited nationally from CF Foundation-accredited CF clinics and via snowball sampling.

participantsFifty women with CF ages 18 through 35 years completed the instrument. MEASUREMENTS: Construct validity was assessed using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). In the CFA, the model fit was evaluated using standardized root mean square residual, root mean square error of approximation, and comparative fit index. Cronbach's alpha was used to examine internal consistency reliability. The criterion validity was assessed using inferential statistics.

resultsThe CFA with two subscales, General Fertility Knowledge and Transplant-Related Fertility Knowledge, demonstrated good fit, with a standardized root mean square residual of 0.07, root mean square error of approximation of 0.06, and comparative fit index of 0.97, indicating good construct validity of the instrument. This instrument demonstrated internal consistency reliability with a Cronbach's alpha of .91 for the General Fertility Knowledge subscale and .64 for the Transplant-Related Fertility Knowledge subscale. Women who reported a pregnancy scored higher than women who did not report a pregnancy (p = .02), suggesting criterion validity.

conclusionThe newly developed KFP-WCFI appears to be a valid and reliable instrument that can be used to measure self-assessed FP knowledge in women with CF.
