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

backgroundThe Foot Health Status Questionnaire (FHSQ) is a foot health psychometric tool for measuring foot health status that consists of eight dimensions. Currently, the FHSQ has been adapted to several languages. It was considered necessary to translate and adapt the FHSQ to the Persian language. Thus, the aim of this study was to assess the repeatability and reliability of the Foot Health Status Questionnaire (FHSQ) translated into Persian.

methodThe translation into Persian and test-retest reliability methods came from the English version of the questionnaire. The questionnaire was distributed to 88 individuals diagnosed with plantar heel pain, who were recruited from a podiatry clinic in Iran. To assess test-retest reliability, the instrument was administered on two separate occasions, with a five-day interval between the initial and follow-up assessments.

resultsAs regards the total mark for each dimension, internal consistency and reliability were determined with the Cronbach

conclusionsThe Persian version of the FHSQ was shown to be a valid and reliable tool for acceptable use in the Iran population.
