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 Role Checklist is broadly used to assess perceived role participation. Although stroke survivors often experience decreased participation, its reliability has not been evaluated for Spanish-speaking individuals with stroke.

objectiveTo evaluate the psychometric properties of the Role Checklist in Spanish-speaking individuals with stroke.

designValidation study.

settingRandomly selected public primary care centres.

participants179 participants with stroke. OUTCOME MEASURES: Internal consistency was analysed using Cronbach's alpha and item-total correlations. Test-retest and inter-rater reliability were evaluated with the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). Measurement precision was examined by calculating the SE of measurement (SEM) and the minimum detectable change (MDC) 95% CI. Floor and ceiling effects were assessed by calculating the proportion of participants who achieved the minimum and maximum possible scores.

resultsThe 'role participation' subscale showed a Cronbach's alpha of 0.73 (95% CI 0.57 to 0.74) and the 'assigned value' subscale of 0.45 (95% CI 0.33 to 0.57). All item-total correlations for the items within the 'assigned value' subscale were significant. Test-retest analysis showed ICC values >0.84, and inter-rater reliability showed ICC values >0.99 for role participation and assigned value. The SEM estimates were 1.43 for the role participation subscale and 0.88 for the value attributed to the total number of roles subscale. MDC

conclusionThe Role Checklist exhibited acceptable internal consistency, temporal stability and interobserver reliability.
