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

Objectives: To describe psychometric properties of the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function-Preschool (BRIEF-P) and its discriminatory ability for risk groups for executive dysfunction (low birth weight (LBW), stunting and low maternal education) among children with poor growth in infancy. Introduction: BRIEF-P is widely used to measure executive functions, but knowledge on its psychometric properties in low-and-middle-income countries is limited. Method: The sample consisted of 529 parents of children (30-35 months). BRIEF-P was subject to confirmatory factor analysis, and internal consistency by alpha calculations and inter-correlations. Results: A good fit for a bifactor-model with 5 subscales and a general factor. BRIEF-P subscales were higher when mothers had low versus high education. Children born with LBW compared to normal birth weight had poorer Shift and Flexibility scores. Conclusion: BRIEF-P is feasible and reliable tool to measure executive functions in Nepali children and is associated with key risk factors for executive dysfunction.
