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

Objectives: This study developed psychometric evaluation of an instrument for measuring health literacy among children in Thailand. Study design: Development of Health Literacy Assessment Tool for 9-10 Years Old Children in Thailand involved item development. The first step was reviewing literature to pilot-test and generate an item pool. Nine expertise with different disciplines were approached to assess the initial questionnaire. For field-testing, 1650 students with same age group were randomly selected to complete the questionnaire. The psychometric properties of the developed instrument were assessed by an Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and a Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA). Results: A total of 50-items were included in exploratory factor analysis indicating 4-dimension solution that jointly explained 36.05% of the variance observed. Confirmatory factory analysis also indicated a good fit of the data for the four-latent structure: access to information (9-items), understanding the information (6-items), appraisal (8-items), and apply the information (9-items) (Chi-square: χ Conclusions: Health Literacy Assessment Tool for 9-10 Years Old children (31-item) showed psychometric properties, high validityy and was reliable. Therefore, it is considered as an effective tool to measure the Health Literacy for 9-10 years old children in Thailand.
