Multicentre cross-sectional study assessing content validity of the International Classification of Functioning, disability and health core set for post-acute musculoskeletal conditions in primary care physiotherapy services.
Article in Journal of rehabilitation medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 3 registered trials, which are not on this map. Cited by 2 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.

Abstract
objectiveTo assess content validity of the comprehensive International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) Core Set for post-acute musculoskeletal conditions in primary care physiotherapy services.
designMulticentre cross-sectional study. SUBJECTS: Patients with musculoskeletal disorders referred to primary care physiotherapy services.
methodsStructured interviews were conducted using categories from the ICF Core Set, and their relevance was assessed using a visual analogue scale. An ICF category had to represent a problem for at least 5% of the sample in order to be validated.
resultsThe study sample comprised 274 patients. All categories in the ICF Core Set were confirmed. Body functions related to pain and movement were the most commonly impaired, with ICF categories "b280 Sensation of pain" and "b710 Mobility of joint functions" having the highest prevalence (87.2% and 84.7%, respectively). Activity limitations and participation restrictions were concentrated in chapters "d4 Mobility" (63.5% for "d430 Lifting and carrying objects") and "d2 General tasks and demands" (59.5% for "d240 Handling stress and other psychological demands"). The most relevant environmental factors were "e225 Climate" (55.8%) and "e580 Health services, systems and policies" (39.4%).
conclusionThe ICF Core Set for post-acute musculoskeletal conditions shows appropriate content validity for primary care physiotherapy services.
