Translation, revision, and validation of the Chinese version of the Satisfaction with Oral Anti-Diabetic Agent Scale (C-SOADAS) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

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
objectiveThe aim of this study was to translate, adapt, and validate the Satisfaction with Oral Anti-Diabetic Agent Scale (SOADAS) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) patients taking oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs) in Taiwan. PATIENTS AND
methodsThe SOADAS was translated to Chinese and was modified based on reviews of two physicians, five diabetes educators, and two patient focus groups. A cross-sectional interviewer-administered survey was conducted in adult patients with type 2 DM who were taking OADs. The Chinese version of the SOADAS (C-SOADAS), the EuroQol 5 dimensions 3-level (EQ-5D-3L) questionnaire, and a demographic questionnaire were administered to participants. Instrument structure, internal consistency, convergent validity, and known-group validity were assessed.
resultsA total of 260 DM patients were recruited. The mean score of an individual item ranged from 3.6 to 3.9, while the mean total score (out of 25 possible points) was 18.7 points. Overall, floor and ceiling effects were negligible. The Cronbach's α value was 0.81. All the four predetermined hypotheses for known-group validity assessment were fulfilled. In convergent validity testing, the C-SOADAS total scores were found to be correlated with EuroQol-Visual Analog Scale (EQ-VAS) scores (
conclusionThe 5-item C-SOADAS appears to be a psychometrically acceptable measure of OAD treatment satisfaction among type 2 DM patients in Taiwan. The tool may be incorporated into clinical practice to quickly assess treatment outcomes from patients' perspectives.
