Effectiveness assessment of a home-based exercise intervention in mitigating HTLV-1 associated disabilities: A validation study.
Article in PloS one, 2024. 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
To evaluate the effectiveness of a home exercise program called Home Exercise Booklet for People Living with Human T Lymphotropic Virus 1 (HTLV-1). This is a methodological study of content validation with expert judges. A questionnaire with a Likert scale was applied, containing 16 items referring to the content domain. Descriptive statistics were used to obtain the content validity index. In total, 46 judges participated, 24 physiotherapists (PG) and 22 professionals from other health areas specializing in methodological studies and HTLV-1 (EG). In the validation process, each evaluator judged the technology and scored their considerations. In the end, we obtained the following results for the Content Validity Index (CVI): PG CVI: 94.3%, GE CVI: 93.4%. Although the index was sufficient to consider the technology validated, modifications were made to the second and final version of the booklet, considering the judges' observations and suggestions, which we consider relevant. The technology proved to be valid for use with the target audience. The development and validation of this product provides support to help prevent functional decline in people living with HTLV-1; standardize guidelines for physiotherapy professionals who monitor these issues; start a home exercise program aimed at other comorbidities; open the possibility of creating and validating home exercise programs with other comorbidities.
