Korean version of the convalescence and recovery evaluation: translation and linguistic validation.
Article in Prostate international, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundTo develop a Korean version of the original English version of the convalescence and recovery evaluation (CARE) questionnaire. The linguistic validation of the CARE questionnaire was tested on Korean patients who underwent abdominal and pelvic surgery.
methodsThe CARE questionnaire was translated and validated linguistically in the following steps. Permission to translate the Korean version of the original version, forward translation into the Korean, reconciliation, backward translation into English, cognitive debriefing through patient interviews, and finally proofreading.
resultsThe forward translation was carried out by two independent bilingual translators with non-medical backgrounds. In the translation step to Korean, the terms "bloated and gassy" and "trouble concentrating" were adjusted to make them easier to understand. Backward translation was performed by another translator who was not included in the forward translation. At the backward-translation stage, the Korean version was accepted without any objection, almost matching the original version except for a few words. Cognitive debriefing by means of patient interviews was performed with 10 patients admitted to the department of urology for renal, bladder, and prostate cancer for cancer treatment. There was no difficulty in understanding the content of the questionnaire. Because most of the terms were clear and understandable, no further changes were made in the panel discussion.
conclusionsThe Korean version of the CARE questionnaire has been verified and is ready for use. Additional testing steps are required for the psychometric performance of the Korean version of CARE.
