Validation to Brazilian Portuguese of the coma recovery scale-revised.
Article in Arquivos de neuro-psiquiatria, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundTo improve the diagnostic accuracy of the state of consciousness of patients with severe brain injury, Giacino et al. introduced the Coma Recovery Scale (CRS) in 1991, which underwent revision in 2004, resulting in the revised CRS scale (CRS-R).
objectiveTo determine the concurrent validity, as well as inter- and intrarater agreement of the CRS-R's adaptation to Brazilian Portuguese.
methodsThis study involved a sample of 30 patients with severe brain injury. Concurrent evaluations were also performed with the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) and the Full Outline of UnResponsiveness (FOUR) scale. A total of seven rehabilitation experts were recruited to assess the inter- and intrarater reliability agreement.
resultsInterrater reliability was moderate to high for auditory, visual, motor, verbal, communication, and arousal subscales (Cohen weighted kappa = 0.765 to 0.892;
conclusionThe Brazilian Portuguese version of CRS-R can be reliably administered by trained examiners. This study demonstrated substantial to almost perfect interrater agreement for the total score and subscales, as well as high concurrent validity between the Brazilian Portuguese version of CRS-R and the other two standardized behavioral scales.
