Five-repetition sit-to-stand test validation in adolescents and adults with intellectual disabilities.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
This study aims to validate the five repetition sit to stand test (5R-STS) test as a measure of strength and functionality in adolescents and adults with intellectual disabilities (ID). The sample was made up of 159 subjects with ID (85 adolescents and 74 adults) of both sexes, with average age of 18.36 (5.26) years, belonging to four special educational centers from Santiago, Chile. Absolute (AHGS) and relative (RHGS) handgrip strength and countermovement jump (CMJ) were considered as muscle strength evaluation tests. The timed up and go (TUG) and agility test 4 × 10 m were considered as functional tests. Spearman and intraclass correlations, as well as Bland-Altman plots were used to establish the respective correlations. The average values obtained in the 5R-STS test (s) in adolescents were 6.55 and 7.24, while in adults they were 6.82 and 7.17 for men and women, respectively. Significant correlations (p = < 0.05) are established between the 5R-STS test with AHGS (r= -0.48) and RHGS (r= -0.54), CMJ (-0.53), 4 × 10 m test (-0.50) and TUG (-0.49), as well as in the analysis of agreement between 5R-STS and the TUG (ICC = 0.74) and agility 4 × 10 m (ICC = 0.61) tests, both in adolescents and adults of both sexes. The 5R-STS test is a valid, simple and safe tool to evaluate general and lower extremity muscle strength. Its use is suggested as a simple measure for monitoring functional capacity by professionals in educational and health contexts for the adolescent and adult population with ID.
