Construct validity and reliability of the participation scale (P-scale) in individuals with spinal cord injury.
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. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectivesTo investigate the reliability and the construct validity of the Participation Scale (P-scale) in adults with Spinal Cord Injury (SCI).
designA cross-sectional study.
setting: SARAH Network of Rehabilitation Hospitals, Brazil.
participants: One hundred individuals with SCI.
interventions: Not applicable. OUTCOME MEASURES: : Sociodemographic and clinical characteristics were investigated. To assess reliability the P-scale was applied twice with a one-week interval. To assess construct validity the Functional Independence Measure, the Beck Depression Inventory, and the Accessibility Perception Questionnaire were administered.
resultsThe mean age of the participants was 38.9 ± 12.80 years. The majority were male (70%) and had traumatic injuries (74%). The P-scale showed significant correlations with the Functional Independence Measure motor domain (
conclusionOur results support the use of the P-scale to assess the participation of individuals with SCI in research and clinical practice.
