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

backgroundThis study aimed to assess the psychometric properties of the Turkish version of the Partners in Health Scale (PIH-TR), which was developed to assess the perceptions of patients with chronic conditions in primary care. Accurate assessment of facilitators and barriers to self-management of chronic conditions, from the patients' perspective, is important for working effectively with them to promote better health outcomes.

methodsA cross-sectional validation study was conducted and designed according to the STROBE guidelines. One hundred thirty-six patients, aged 30-90 years (86.7% aged > 60), were recruited from family care centres. Data were collected using the revised PIH, an adapted version of Model-2 (PIH-TR), which is a 12-item self-rated measure of self-management of chronic conditions. The PIH was translated into Turkish using Beaton et al.'s method. Content, construct validity and internal consistency analyses were undertaken to evaluate the data.

resultsThe PIH-TR had satisfactory reliability and validity and revealed a four-factor structure appropriate to the original scale: knowledge, partnership in treatment, recognition and management of symptoms and coping. Omega coefficient (0.860), test-retest reliability (0.841) and comparative fit indices (CFI) (0.99) were high.

conclusionThe PIH-TR has good specifics and is reliable and valid as an objective self-rated tool to assess self-management of Turkish patients' chronic conditions.
