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

contextThe Concussion Clinical Profiles Screening Tool (CP Screen) self-report concussion symptom inventory is often administered at weekly intervals. However, 1-week reliable change indices (RCIs) for clinical cutoffs and the test-retest reliability of the CP Screen are unknown.

objectiveTo document RCI cutoff scores and 1-week test-retest reliability for each profile and modifier of the CP Screen for men and women.

designCase series.

settingA large US university. PATIENTS OR OTHER

participantsOne hundred seventy-three healthy college students. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Participants completed 2 administrations of the CP Screen 7 days apart. The CP Screen items yielded 5 clinical profiles and 2 modifiers. Spearman ρ coefficients (rs), intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs), single measures, and unbiased estimates of reliability (UERs) were used to assess test-retest reliability. Wilcoxon signed-rank tests assessed differences across time. Reliable change index values and cutoff scores are provided at 90%/95% CIs. All analyses were performed for the total sample and separately for men and women.

resultsReliable change index cutoffs for clinically significant change (increase/decrease) at a 90% CI for men were as follows: ocular, vestibular >2/>4; anxiety/mood, cognitive/fatigue, and migraine >3/>3; sleep >4/>6; and neck >2/>2. Reliable change index cutoffs for clinically significant change (increase/decrease) at a 90% CI for women were as follows: anxiety/mood ≥2/≥4; cognitive/fatigue, migraine, ocular, vestibular, and sleep ≥3/≥3; and neck ≥1/≥1. Correlations for the CP Screen ranged from 0.51 (migraine) to 0.79 (anxiety/mood) for the total sample, from 0.48 (migraine) to 0.84 (vestibular) for men, and from 0.51 (migraine) to 0.77 (ocular) for women. Test-retest indices for each profile and modifier were moderate to good for the total sample (ICC, 0.64-0.82; UER, 0.79-0.90), men (ICC, 0.60-0.87; UER, 0.76-0.94), and women (ICC, 0.64-0.80; UER, 0.78-0.89).

conclusionThe CP Screen is reliable and stable across a 1-week interval, and established RCIs for men and women can help identify meaningful change throughout recovery.
