Validation of the hip disability osteoarthritis outcome Score-12 shortform in a German cohort.
Article in Archives of orthopaedic and trauma surgery, 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.

Abstract
introductionTo consider the inherent respondent burden of PROMs, the HOOS-12 as a shortform of the well-established HOOS questionnaire has been published. While the HOOS-12 has been validated in an initial study, further evaluation in other, non-English speaking cohorts is necessary. We therefore aimed to evaluate responsiveness, convergent construct validity, internal consistency, and floor and ceiling effects of the HOOS-12 in a cross-sectoral german cohort. MATERIALS AND
methodsEuropean Quality of Life 5 Dimensions scores and HOOS data of patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) were used for the analyses. HOOS-12 scores were calculated from the full length HOOS. Statistical analysis was conducted, investigating internal consistency, floor and ceiling effects, convergent and discriminant validity, responsiveness, and known-group comparisons.
resultsA ceiling effect was present for postoperative HOOS-12 score and its pain, function and QoL subscales. Internal consistency was high between baseline and all follow ups, inter-item correlation was high (Cronbach's alpha > 0.30) for HOOS-12 score and all subscales. Correlation of HOOS-12 pain with HOOS pain was high (r = 0.9). Correlation of HOOS-12 function with HOOS ADL and HOOS S/R was high (r = 0.89, r = 0.74). Correlation was moderate between HOOS-12 pain and HOOS-12 function with its respective EQ-5D score (r=-0.58, r=-0.59).
conclusionThe HOOS-12 showed good convergent construct validity and is responsive to changes in pain, function, QoL and hip impact between preoperatively and 1 year postoperatively. A substantial ceiling effect for all subscales at 1 year postoperatively limits the ability to capture variance across particularly well performing patients.
