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

Background: The parental Stress Scale (PSS) is an 18 item self-report scale that indicates positive (e.g., emotional benefits, personal development) and negative (demands on resources, restrictions) themes of parenthood. This study was aimed to study the reliability and validity of the Gujarati version of PSS (PSS-G) by a study performed among parents of children with Cerebral Palsy (CP). Methods: In total, 152 parents of children with CP were assessed for evaluation of stress using the Gujarati version of PSS and the English version of the Parenting Stress Index- Short form. Concurrent validity was evaluated using Pearson's correlations, internal consistency was evaluated using Cronbach's alpha, and test-retest reliability was evaluated using the intraclass correlation coefficient value. Results: The scales of the PSS-G revealed high internal consistency (i.e., Cronbach's α = 0.923) and the intraclass correlation coefficient value for test-retest reliability of 0.987. Moreover, Pearson's correlation coefficient also supports the concurrent validity of PSS-G for parents of children with CP. Conclusion: The PSS-G is a valid and reliable outcome measure to evaluate parental stress in parents of children with CP. As the robust psychometric properties of PSS-G is already established, research can be performed to extend its utility and routine use in clinical and public health settings.
