ICF-linking and psychometric properties of upper extremity mobility outcome measures in spinal cord injury - a scoping review.
Article in The journal of spinal cord medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectiveThe purpose of this study was to explore the outcome measures used in upper extremity rehabilitation and research in spinal cord injury and to investigate their psychometry.
designScoping review. DATA SOURCES: PubMed, the Cochrane library, PEDro, Medline (Ovid). ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA FOR SELECTING STUDIES: The search process and study selection was carried out as follows: Firstly, a systematic search was carried out for articles on upper extremity rehabilitation after SCI. Performance or observational outcome measures which were designed for a clinical setting were collected from selected studies. Secondly, eligible outcome measures were linked to the ICF. The ICF-linked outcome measures were further screened for inclusion according to how comprehensively they covered ICF categories. Finally, a search of the selected outcome measures was performed to investigate their psychometry.
resultsA total of four outcome measures and nine psychometric studies were selected for the scoping review; six studies addressed GRASSP, one addressed AuSpinal, one addressed SHFT and one addressed TRI-HFT. Of the 13 COSMIN measurement properties, studies of GRASSP covered seven, AuSpinal covered five and both SHFT and TRI-HFT covered three properties.
conclusionsThe psychometric properties of GRASSP were most extensively studied showing eligible reliability and validity. Although there are still some measurement properties to be explored, GRASSP can be recommended for use in the evaluation of upper extremity mobility in the SCI rehabilitation and research. More research is needed on the psychometrics of other outcome measures in people with spinal cord injuries before the outcome measures can be unconditionally recommended.
