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

This study assessed the psychometric properties of the Brazilian version of the Geriatric Oral Health Assessment Index (GOHAI). A representative sample of 613 community-dwelling elderly people aged from 65 to 74 years was selected. Sociodemographic data, GOHAI and self-perceived oral health measures were collected. Dental clinical measures were obtained through oral examinations. The dimensional structure and adequacy of components were assessed using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA), inter-item correlations and item-scale correlations. Reliability was evaluated by internal consistency and Intraclass Correlation Coefficients. Correlations between GOHAI scores and self-reported oral health measures were conducted to assess convergent validity. The relationship between dental clinical measures and GOHAI was tested through Poisson Regression to examine discriminant validity. The link between GOHAI items and dimensions was supported by CFA. Item 12 showed a poor factor loading. The inter-item correlations varied from 0.047 to 0.442, and item-scale correlations ranged from 0.305 to 0.612. Cronbach's alpha was 0.704. The test-retest correlation for GOHAI was 0.882. GOHAI scores were correlated by self-rated oral health measures. Poor dental clinical measures were associated with GOHAI. The Brazilian version of GOHAI showed adequate psychometric properties. However, the weak dimensional structure of GOHAI suggests the need to perform cross-cultural adaptation of GOHAI for Brazilian elderly people.
