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

Background: The Kerlan-Jobe Orthopaedic Clinic shoulder and elbow score (KJOC) is sensitive enough to detect subtle changes in the functional level of the shoulder or elbow in overhead athletes. However, a Japanese version of the KJOC is not yet available. Moreover, the original KJOC uses a visual analog scale (VAS) assessment format that requires a print version so that users can add a check mark along a horizontal line. The KJOC can be completed using online tools such as Google Forms if a 10-point scale format can be used with comparable results. Purposes: To (1) translate and cross-culturally adapt the KJOC into Japanese (KJOC-J) and assess its validity and (2) evaluate the correlation between a standard VAS format and a 10-point scale format (KJOC-J10). Study Design: Cohort study (Diagnosis); Level of evidence, 3. Methods: In total, 318 athletes participated in the validation study, 255 in the test-retest reliability study for the KJOC-J, and 273 in the validation study for the KJOC-J10. Internal consistency was evaluated using the Cronbach alpha. Validity was evaluated by calculating the correlation between the KJOC-J and the Disability of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH). Test-retest reliability was assessed using the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). The validity of the KJOC-J10 was evaluated by calculating the correlation between the KJOC-J10 and KJOC-J. Results: The Cronbach alpha was 0.914, indicating good internal consistency. The KJOC-J was moderately correlated with the DASH ( Conclusion: The study results demonstrated good internal consistency, validity, and reliability for the KJOC-J, indicating that it is a valid assessment tool for shoulder and elbow functions in Japanese overhead athletes. Moreover, a strong correlation was found between the VAS and 10-point formats of the KJOC-J.
