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

objectivesto perform cross-cultural adaptation and content validity of the Mental Health Literacy questionnaire into Brazilian Portuguese.

methodsa validity study developed according to the following stages: (1) assessment of conceptual and item equivalence; (2) idiomatic and semantic equivalence (translation, back-translation, formal assessment, critical analysis by 17 experts and pre-testing with 32 young adults, using the survey technique); (3) operational equivalence.

resultsimportant changes were made to ensure instrument validity. The Content Validity Index for the Brazilian context was 97.2% (feasibility) and 98.9% (relevance). The instrument proved to be understandable and easy to apply in pre-testing. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: the Mental Health Literacy questionnaire, Brazilian version, contributes to assessing mental health literacy as well as to improving the quality of actions to promote, prevent and protect mental health in young people.
