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

backgroundThere is a need for pragmatic and reliable measures of sound factors that affect evidence-based practice (EBP) adoption and implementation in different languages and cultural environments. The Implementation Leadership Scale (ILS) is a brief and efficient measurement tool of strategic leadership for EBP implementation. The objective of this study was to assess the psychometric properties of the Spanish version of the ILS.

methodsThe process of translation of the original ILS into Spanish consisted of forward translation, panel meeting, and back-translation. Scale face and content validity compared to that of the original version were assessed and ensured before agreement on the final version. Psychometric properties were examined in 144 healthcare professionals (family physicians, pediatricians, practice and pediatric nurses) involved in implementation or improvement research projects. ILS factor structure was tested by confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Reliability was assessed by internal consistency analysis. The Pearson correlation between the ILS and the Organizational Support dimension of the Organizational Readiness for Knowledge Translation (OR4KT) questionnaire in the subsample of pediatricians and pediatric nurses (n = 52) was estimated for convergent validity analysis.

resultsThe CFA results indicated that the original four theorized first-order factors with a second-order Implementation Leadership factor fit the data well (χ

conclusionThe CFA results demonstrated that the tested first- and second-order factor structure of the 12-item Spanish version of the ILS is consistent with the factor structure of the original tool. The availability of the ILS will allow Spanish-speaking researchers to assess and advance understanding of the implementation leadership construct as a predictor of organizational implementation context.
