Cultural Adaptation, Reliability and Validation of the Arabic Örebro Musculoskeletal Pain Questionnaire in Patients with Low Back Pain.

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 Örebro Musculoskeletal Pain Questionnaire (ÖMPQ) assesses the psychosocial factors in people with complaints of musculoskeletal disorders and predicts those likely to develop persistent symptoms. Objective: To culturally-adapt and assess the validity of the ÖMPQ in an Arabic population with low back pain (LBP). Methods: This was a prospective cohort validation study of the ÖMPQ. The Arabic-ÖMPQ was created by forward translation, translation synthesis and backward translation in an Arabic population. Participants were included if they were 18 years or older, had acute or chronic LBP and were fluent in Arabic. Eighty-four patients completed the questionnaires at baseline, 2 days later and 3 months follow-up. We assessed specific agreement and test-retest reliability using the interclass correlation coefficient (ICC). We assessed predictive validity using linear regression and relative risk. We assessed content validity by investigating the ceiling and floor effects. Results: To construct validity, the Arabic-ÖMPQ had a moderate ( Conclusion: The translation of the Arabic-ÖMPQ into Arabic was successful. The Arabic-ÖMPQ showed very good reliability and proper validity and thus can be used to predict the risk of developing persistent disability amongst patients with LBP in an Arabic population.
