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
backgroundThe Functional Assessment Scale for Acute Hamstring Injuries (FASH) which measure symptom's severity and impact on physical activity and sports ability in individuals with acute hamstring muscle injury, is not available in Persian. The aim of this study was to translate and cross-culturally adapt the FASH questionnaire to Persian and to assess the psychometric properties of the translated version.
methodsThe Persian-translation and cross-cultural adaptation processes were based on World Health Organization method. A total of 160 participants compromising of four groups: (1) acute hamstring injury (N = 40), (2) other lower extremity injury (N = 40), (3) risk of acute injury (N = 40), and (4) healthy control (N = 40) were recruited to complete the Persian version of FASH (FASH-P) questionnaire twice with an interval of 48-60 h. The Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) and Lower Extremity Functional Scale (LEFS) were used to assess the criterion validity. Test-retest reliability, internal consistency, criterion validity, Dimensionality and floor/ceiling effects were evaluated to assess the FASH-P psychometric properties.
resultsThe FASH questionnaire were translated to Persian without any major problems. The FASH-P showed excellent power of differentiation because the scores were significantly different among the four groups. Regarding psychometric performances, excellent test-retest reliability (Intraclass correlation coefficient of 0.997) and a high level of internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha of 0.966) were observed. The FASH-P total score was significantly correlated with SF-36 and LEFS questionnaires representing an excellent criterion validity. No floor or ceiling effect were found for total score in Hamstring muscle injury group.
conclusionsDue to the excellent psychometric performance, the FASH-P can be used as a reliable and valid tool for evaluating the severity of symptoms and sports ability in Persian-speaking patients with hamstring muscle injury.
