Evaluation of the Psychometric and Structural Properties of the Spanish Version of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale in Latina Cancer Patients.

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
contextThe Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) is a brief self-report measure commonly used to screen for symptoms of anxiety and depression in cancer patients. The HADS has demonstrated validity in over 100 languages, including Spanish. However, validation studies have largely used European Spanish-speaking samples with a variety of medical diagnoses.
objectivesThe aim of this study was to examine the psychometric properties of the Spanish version of the HADS in a sample of Spanish-speaking Latina women with cancer in the U.S.
methodsParticipants (N = 242) completed self-report measures of anxiety and depression (HADS), quality of life (Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-General Version), cancer-related distress (Impact of Events Scale-Revised Version Intrusion Subscale), and cancer symptomatology (Memorial Symptom Assessment Scale-Short Form) before initiating chemotherapy and five to seven weeks later. Analyses evaluated internal consistency and test-retest reliability, construct validity, and convergent validity.
resultsFactor analysis supported a two-factor structure as proposed by the original HADS developers (X
conclusionThe Spanish version of the HADS evidenced sound psychometric properties in Latinas with cancer in the U.S., supporting its use in clinical oncology research and practice.
