Change in mobility independence over 5 years for persons with chronic spinal cord injury.
Article in The journal of spinal cord medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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.

designCohort study. Rasch analysis was applied to the mobility subscale of the Spinal Cord Independence Measure - Self-Report data from years 2012 to 2017, resulting in a Rasch Mobility Independence Score (RMIS). We employed multilevel modeling to examine RMIS and its change over 5 years, adjusting for demographics and SCI severity; random forest regression was applied to determine the impact of modifiable factors (e.g. environmental factors, home-support) on its change.
resultsThe analysis included 728 participants. The majority (≈85%) of participants demonstrated little or no change in RMIS from 2012 to 2017; however, a smaller proportion (15%) showed considerably large change of more than 10 on the 100-point scale. A mixed-effects model with random slopes and intercepts described the dataset very well (conditional R
conclusionRMIS in persons with SCI changes over a period of 5 years, especially in elder patients with paraplegia and persons with incomplete tetraplegia with more than 15 years of time since injury. During routine follow-up change in mobility independence should be assessed in order to timely intervene and prevent mobility loss and participation limitations.
