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

Introduction: Emerging risks at work may be caused by new information and communication technologies, such as computers. While they enhance productivity, computers can also cause new health issues in workers, such as Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS). Objective: To culturally adapt and evaluate the validity evidence of the Computer Vision Syndrome Questionnaire (CVS-Q©) for adult Colombian computer-using workers from the Rasch model approach. Materials and Methods: A quantitative, observational, cross-sectional, analytical study was conducted with a sample of 300 computer-using workers from a public university in Colombia in 2022. Rasch analyses were performed to fit response categories, items, and individuals; examine differential item functioning (DIF), dimensionality, and local independence of items; determine reliability; and produce the item-person map. Results: The CVS-Q (Colombia)© response format was adjusted to meet Linacre's guidelines for optimizing rating scale categories. All items showed infit and outfit mean-square values within the expected range. The scale was unidimensional, and the Rasch measurement explained 35.90% of the variance. Person reliability was 0.77, internal consistency was 0.88, and temporal stability reliability was 0.86. Discussion: The CVS-Q (Colombia)© assesses the frequency, intensity, and severity of sixteen signs and symptoms of CVS. Conclusion: The CVS-Q (Colombia)© is a valid and reliable scale for measuring the severity of CVS symptoms in Colombian workers.
