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

backgroundThe ICHOM Adult Oral Health Standard Set (AOHSS) is a recently created standard set of outcomes intended for application in dental clinical practice. The purpose of this study is to describe the cross-cultural adaptation and validation of the AOHSS into Chinese.

methodsAccording to standard cross-cultural procedures, the Chinese version of the AHOSS (AOHSS/C) was developed. Next, a total of 224 patients were enrolled to complete the AOHSS/C to examine its reliability and validity. The reliability of the AOHSS/C was assessed through the utilization of internal consistency and split-half reliability. Additionally, exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and convergent validity were conducted to assess the validity of the AOHSS/C.

resultsFollowing the findings of the corrected item-total correlation and exploratory factor analysis, one item ('aesthetic satisfaction') was deleted. The 11 items of the AOHSS/C exhibited satisfactory reliability, as evidenced by Cronbach's α value of 0.879 and split-half reliability of 0.769. The EFA revealed a two-factor model for the measure, explaining 58.9% of the total variance. Furthermore, the present study demonstrated convergent validity by showing a good correlation (r

conclusionsThe AOHSS/C was shown to be a valid and reliable measure to assess oral health in a Chinese population.
