Hindi translation and validation of the English version of the gastrointestinal symptom rating scale questionnaire: An observational study.
Article in World journal of gastrointestinal pharmacology and therapeutics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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.

This validated scale has questions on around 15 items and has been validated in patients with dyspepsia and IBS.
aimTo translate and validate the English version of the GSRS questionnaire to the Hindi version.

The process involved various steps as per the World Health Organization methodology including initial forward translation, backward translation, and assessment by an expert committee. Initial pilot testing was followed by testing in healthy and diseased individuals.
resultsThe Hindi translation was pilot tested in 20 individuals and further validated in healthy controls (
conclusionThe translated Hindi GSRS can be used to evaluate gastrointestinal function in clinical trials and community surveys in Hindi speaking populations.
