Assessing Participation in Adolescents With Cerebral Palsy: Comparison of Life-Habits and USER-Participation.
Article in Archives of rehabilitation research and clinical translation, 2022. 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.

Abstract
Objective: To explore and compare the contents and scores of the Assessment of Life Habits (Life-H) with the Utrecht Scale for Evaluation of Rehabilitation-Participation (USER-Participation) in adolescents with cerebral palsy. Design: Youth versions of both instruments were used for (1) content comparison and (2) analyses of relations between both instruments, based on cross-sectional data. Setting: Clinic. Participants: Participants were adolescents with cerebral palsy, aged 12-18 years; Gross Motor Function Classification System I-V; N=45. Interventions: Not applicable. Main outcome measures: Assessment of Life Habits (Life-H) with USER-Participation. Results: Both instruments measure independence in participation, called accomplishment (Life-H) and restrictions (USER-Participation), and satisfaction with participation. Life-H provides a profile of 6 domain scores and the USER-Participation a total score per dimension. Compared with the USER-Participation, the Life-H contains more specific items, more items not-applicable to many participants and more ceiling effects. Total scores on the accomplishment/restrictions and satisfaction scales between both instruments showed strong correlation coefficients (0.87 and 0.67, respectively). Correlations between domain scores were stronger within the accomplishment/restrictions scales (range 0.37-0.88) compared with the satisfaction scales (range 0.22-0.68). Conclusions: Compared with the USER-Participation, the Life-H takes more effort to complete but provides a more comprehensive assessment of participation. Participation accomplishment/restrictions scores were more similar between the instruments compared with satisfaction scores. Researchers and clinicians should carefully compare participation instruments in selecting one that matches their purpose.
