Evaluating the psychometric properties of the Persian version of the Healthy Lifestyle Instrument for Breast Cancer Survivors (HLI-BCS).

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
backgroundPrecise examination of breast cancer survivors' lifestyles can lead to improved planning and implementation of care and counseling interventions to increase their survival rate and improve their quality of life. Therefore, a valid and reliable instrument needs to be developed. Therefore, the present study aimed to determine the psychometric properties of the Persian version of the Healthy Lifestyle Instrument for Breast Cancer Survivors (HLI-BCS).
methodsThis methodological study was conducted on 420 Iranian breast cancer survivors between May and November 2022. Participants were selected using convenience sampling. The face, content, construct validity, convergent, and reliability of the Persian version of the HLI-BCS were assessed.
resultsAfter assessing face, content, and construct validity, the Persian version of the HLI-BCS with five factors and 20 items was provided. The total Cronbach's alpha and intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC) were calculated as 0.86 and 0.79, respectively, which were at acceptable levels. A healthy lifestyle in breast cancer survivors was observed to have strong and significant relationships with quality of life in general (p < 0.001, r = 0.832), physical health (r = 0.786), and mental health (r = 0.809).
conclusionThe Persian version of the HLI-BCS has favorable properties, is consistent with the conditions of breast cancer survivors, and is valid and reliable. This version of the scale can provide adequate and precise information on the lifestyles of these patients.
