Diagnostic Reliability and Validity of the Semi-Structured Assessment for Drug Dependence and Alcoholism (SSADDA) Chinese Version.

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.

Abstract
The Semi-Structured Assessment for Drug Dependence and Alcoholism (SSADDA) is a polydiagnostic instrument for substance use and psychiatric disorders. We translated the SSADDA English version into Chinese (SSADDA-Chinese) and report here our examination of the diagnostic reliability and validity of DSM-IV substance dependence (SD) diagnoses in a Mandarin-speaking sample in Taiwan. We recruited 125 subjects who underwent an assessment of lifetime SD diagnoses using both the SSADDA-Chinese and the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV, Clinician Version (SCID-Chinese). Thirty-one subjects were retested with the SSADDA-Chinese. Cohen's κ statistic, which measures chance-corrected agreement, was used to measure the test-retest reliability and concurrent validity of the individual SD diagnoses. There was a high degree of concordance between SD diagnoses made using the SSADDA-Chinese and the SCID-Chinese, including those for dependence on alcohol (κ = 0.83), ketamine (κ = 0.97), methamphetamine (κ = 0.93), and opioids (κ = 0.95). The test-retest reliability of dependence diagnoses for ketamine (κ = 0.95), methamphetamine (κ = 0.80), and opioids (κ = 1.00) obtained using the SSADDA-Chinese was excellent, while that for alcohol dependence (κ = 0.63) and nicotine dependence (κ = 0.65) was good. We conclude that the SSADDA-Chinese is a reliable and valid instrument for the diagnosis of major SD traits in Mandarin-speaking populations.
