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

backgroundSubjective cognitive decline-questionnaire 9 (SCD-Q9) was developed to detect SCD complaints at risk of mild cognitive impairment (MCI). However, our previous findings indicated that its coverage might be insufficient. To test this hypothesis, we recently translated SCD-Q21.

objectiveTo examine the reliability and validity of this translated SCD-Q21 and to explore its effectiveness for discriminating MCI from controls.

methodsItem analysis was performed to understand its item discrimination and homogeneity. The Cronbach's α and Spearman-Brown's split-half coefficients were calculated to test its reliability. The Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) value, Bartlett's sphericity test, and exploratory factor analysis (EFA) were used to examine its construct validity. The content validity was evaluated using five-grade Likert scale. Finally, the SCD-Q21 scores in MCI and controls were compared.

resultsThe difference of each item between the extreme groups was significant. The Cronbach's α coefficient was .913 and Spearman-Brown's split-half coefficient was .894. When performing holding one-out approach, the Cronbach's α coefficient ranged from .906 to .914. The KMO value was .929 and the difference of Bartlett's Sphericity test was significant. All experts scored 5 points when assessing its content. Finally, a significant difference of score was found between MCI and NC groups.

conclusionsThe reliability and validity of the SCD-Q21 are good, which may pave a way for its application in a wider Chinese-speaking population.
