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

objectiveThis study reports on the adaptation and pilot study of the La Trobe Communication Questionnaire (LCQ) for people with traumatic brain injury (PwTBI) into the Greek language.

methodTen PwTBI, 20 healthy controls (HCs), and 10 family members participated in the study. The LCQ was translated into Greek, and subsequently, a pilot study was conducted. Both PwTBI and HCs completed the LCQ, Montreal Cognitive Assessment, REY Auditory Verbal Learning Test, and Boston Diagnostic Aphasia Examination. The family members completed only the LCQ.

resultsThe results showed that the perceptions of PwTBI regarding their communication deficits and the perceptions of their relatives were not significantly different. Additionally, the perceptions of PwTBI and their relatives, compared to those of the HCs, showed no significant difference, except in the scale of communication efficiency. Regarding cognitive functions, PwTBI had more difficulties than the HCs, particularly in language abilities, including reading, comprehension, and writing.

conclusionThe Greek version of the LCQ is a promising evaluation tool with clinical and research utility.
