Utility of performance-based outcome measures (PBOMs) used in fall risk assessment tools for older adults.
Article in Dialogues in health, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
This study investigated the diagnostic accuracy of different clusters of performance based outcome measures (PBOMs) recommended by two consensus-based guidelines: Stopping Elderly Accidents, Deaths, and Injuries (STEADI), and those recommended by a systematic review completed by the American Physical Therapy Association and Academy of Geriatric Physical Therapy (APTA-SR, APTA-SR3). 33 community-dwelling older adults (25 females, 8 males) aged mean 79.45 ± 7.64 years participated in this study. Participants completed a fall history questionnaire and were evaluated via a battery of PBOMs for comparative analysis. The diagnostic accuracy of each PBOM cluster was analyzed retrospectively (previous 1 year fall history) and prospectively (6 month follow up). Retrospective analysis revealed the APTA-SR3 had the highest clinical utility and diagnostic accuracy: Sp 88.24% (63.56-98.54), Sn 62.5% (35.43-84.8), LR+ 2.35 (1.22-4.53), LR- 0.19 (0.05-0.73), accuracy 70.22% (51.83-84.81). Prospective analysis revealed the cluster of the APTA-SR and APTA-SR3 had identical diagnostic accuracy: Sn 100% (39.76-100), Sp 43.75% (19.75-70.12), LR+ 1.78 (1.15-2.74), LR- 0 (0), accuracy 60.62% (36.63-81.36). The APTA-SR 3 cluster demonstrated the highest diagnostic accuracy and in this study was the most effective and efficient group of PBOMs to identify fall risk in community dwelling older adults.
