Inter- and intra-observer reliability of the "Assessment of Motor Repertoire- 3 to 5 Months" based on video recordings of infants with Prader-Willi syndrome.
Article in BMC pediatrics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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.

Abstract
backgroundThe "Assessment of Motor Repertoire-3 to 5 Months", which is a part of Prechtl's General Movements Assessment (GMA), has been gradually applied to infants with genetic metabolic disorders. However, there have been no studies on the application of the GMA for infants with Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS).
aimsThe purpose of this study was to determine the inter- and intra-observer reliability of the assessment tool in a population of infants with PWS. STUDY
designThis was a reliability and agreement study. SUBJECTS: This was a cross-sectional study with15 infants with PWS born at an average gestational age of 38 weeks. OUTCOME MEASURES: Standardized video recordings of 15 infants with PWS (corrected ages of 3 to 5 months) were independently assessed by three observers. Kappa and ICC statistics were applied in inter- and intra- observer reliability analyses.
resultsThe overall reliability ICC values of the "Motor Optimality Score" (MOS) ranged from 0.84 to 0.98, and the pairwise agreement ranged between 0.86 and 0.95 for inter- observe reliability. In addition, ICC values for the MOS ranged between 0.95 and 0.98 for tester agreement in intra-observer reliability. Complete agreement reliability (100%) was achieved in the subcategories of "Fidgety Movements" and "Movement Character" for the inter- and intra-observer reliability. Moderate to high inter- and intra-observer reliability were found in the subcategories of "Repertoire of Co-Existent Other Movements", "Quality of Other Movements" and "Posture", with kappa values ranging between 0.63 and 1.00.
conclusionThere were high levels of inter-and intra-observer agreement in the "Assessment of Motor Repertoire-3 to 5 Months" for infants with PWS. It is possible to carry out standardized quantitative assessments of the motor performance of infants with PWS.
