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
Objective: To provide evidence for test-retest reliability, interrater reliability, and convergent validity of the targeted Box and Block Test (tBBT) in the upper limb prosthesis user population. Design: An observational study was designed to assess various psychometric properties of the novel outcome measure. Participants completed the tBBT across 2 distinct testing sessions to assess test-retest reliability, which was quantified using the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) (3,k) and Pearson's correlation coefficient. Multiple raters scored the tBBT to assess interrater reliability, which was quantified using the ICC(2,k) and Pearson's correlation coefficient. Convergent validity was assessed by computing the Pearson's correlation coefficient between specific subtasks of the Capacity Assessment of Prosthesis Performance for the Upper Limb (CAPPFUL) and the tBBT. Setting: Clinic. Participants: A convenience sample of 20 transradial, unilateral upper limb prosthesis users. Interventions: Not applicable. Main Outcome Measures: tBBT, Box and Block Test (BBT), and CAPPFUL. Results: Interrater reliability for completion time and identification of unsuccessful transports were found to be excellent for the tBBT with ICC values of 0.97-0.99. Similarly, test-retest reliability was found to be good to excellent with ICC values >0.84. There were strong correlations between the scores obtained by different sessions and the scores given by different raters, with correlation coefficients exceeding 0.75. Moderate to strong correlations were found between the tBBT and BBT and subtasks of the CAPPFUL. Conclusions: The tBBT is a valid and reliable measure to assess the functional performance of individuals using an upper limb prosthetic device. This novel measure offers benefits of ease and speed of implementation; assessment of repetitive, ecologically representative movements; and quantification of performance using both speed and accuracy.
