Validation of EORTC IN-PATSAT 32 in Morocco: Methods and Processes
Article in Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention : APJCP, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Background. The EORTC IN-PATSAT32 questionnaire was developed by the EORTC Quality of Life (QL) Group to assess the satisfaction of patients affected by cancer and hospitalized in oncology centers. The aim of this study is to assess the psychometric properties of the EORTC IN-PATSAT32 administered to Moroccan patients. Methods. A total of 133 hospitalized patients affected by cancer in different sites completed the translated EORTC IN-PATSAT32 questionnaire in oncology hospitals. The internal consistence reliability, reproducibility and construct validity were assessed. Results. The homogeneity was good for all scales with Cronbach’s coefficients from 0.72 to 0.95 for all scales. Reproducibility test-retest was very satisfactory and the intra-class correlations coefficients (ICCs) for the scales were all above 0.70 except for the single general satisfaction with a ICC of 0.67. All items were highly correlated with own rather than other scales. Conclusion. The results of this study confirm that the Moroccan Arabic version of the EORTC IN-PATSAT32 has acceptable reliability and validity, comparable to those reported for other languages.
