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

Purpose: This study aimed to use three statistical methods to investigate the inter-rater and intra-rater reliability of the Chinese version of the Short Orientation-Memory-Concentration Test (C-SOMC) for people who have had a stroke. Methods: Forty-four participants (31 men and 13 women) with a mean age of 59.05 ± 10.79 years who have had experienced a single episode of stroke were enrolled in this study. To determine the inter-rater reliability of the C-SOMC, the test was administered to each participant on the same day by two raters (A and B) who each had more than 1 year of work experience. To determine intra-rater reliability, rater B re-evaluated 36 of the 44 participants with the C-SOMC on the subsequent day. Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs), paired-samples t-tests, and Bland-Altman plots were used to analyze the inter-rater and intra-rater reliability. Results: The evaluation of inter-rater reliability for the total score and item 1, 4, 5, 6, and 3/7 showed respective ICCs of 0.959, 0.918, 1.000, 0.942, 0.905 and 0.913, indicating excellent inter-rater reliability for the C-SOMC. Item 2 had an ICC of 0.796, indicating moderate to good inter-rater reliability. The evaluation of intra-rater reliability showed an ICC of 0.978 for the total score, and respective ICCs of 1.000, 1.000, 1.000, 0.968, 0.973 and 0.929 for the individual items, indicating excellent intra-rater reliability for the C-SOMC. The paired-samples Conclusions: The C-SOMC demonstrated excellent inter-rater and intra-rater reliability when administered to people who have had a stroke. The C-SOMC may be used to screen for cognitive impairment in people who have had a stroke.
