Development and Validation of a Questionnaire to Assess Awareness and Knowledge of Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease, a Liver Cancer Etiological Factor, among Chinese Young Adults.
Article in Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention : APJCP, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
purposeDespite the increasing prevalence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), a liver cancer etiological factor, among Chinese young adults (CYA), there is a lack of valid, reliable, ready-to-use survey instruments for assessing awareness and knowledge of NAFLD in this population. The aims of this study were to develop, validate, and assess the reliability of a web-based, self-administered questionnaire evaluating awareness and knowledge of NAFLD among CYA.
methodsBased on review of relevant literature, a draft questionnaire was initially developed. Face and content validity of the questionnaire was evaluated by an expert panel of seven gastroenterologists. The construct validity was tested through item analysis based on item response theory. Reliability assessment included test-retest for stability and test for internal consistency. Two pilot tests were conducted among 60 randomly selected students at Lanzhou University, China, through WeChat App.
resultsThe content validity and clarity indexes were both greater than 0.85. Face validity was established by concluding that questions had no issue with feasibility, readability, clarity of wording, clarity of layout, and style. Response rates for two pilot tests were 96.7% (58 out of 60) and 98.3% (59 out of 60), respectively. Results testing the construct validity showed estimated amount of information obtained by the test between -3 and +3 range of ability was 97.57%. The test-retest reliability (Pearson's r) was 0.62. The internal consistency (KR20) was 0.92.
conclusionsThis newly developed questionnaire is a reliable and valid instrument for assessing awareness and knowledge of NAFLD among this sample from CYA.
