Exploring international classification of functioning, disability and health applicability for coding work-related disability: a study on depression and fibromyalgia in Swedish sick leave certificates.
Article in Journal of rehabilitation medicine, 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
objectiveThis study explores the effectiveness of using the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) as a coding framework to document work-related disability information in sick leave certificates, focusing on depression and fibromyalgia in Sweden.
designA qualitative ICF linking study was conducted, mapping information from 200 certificates per diagnosis to ICF.
methodsICF linking rules were followed strictly. The coverage of ICF and ICF Core Sets was evaluated, proposing additional ICF categories when relevant categories were not included. Saturation of ICF categories was considered achieved if no new categories appeared in the last 5 certificates.
resultsThe study found high ICF coverage (85% for depression, 78% for fibromyalgia) in capturing work-related disability information. However, there was limited coverage in ICF Core Sets due to an excess of ICF categories in the Core Sets. Also, 2 additional relevant ICF categories for depression and 3 for fibromyalgia were identified.
conclusionThis study confirms that the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health is suitable for coding work-related disability in sick leave certificates. However, the identified limitations in ICF Core Sets highlights the need for context-specific subsets to enhance their relevance for depression and fibromyalgia in work-related disability.
