Translation and Psychometric Evaluation of the Profile of Fatigue and Discomfort-Sicca Symptoms Inventory (Short Form) for Patients with Primary Sjögren's Syndrome: Validity and Reliability Analysis of the Turkish Version.
Article in European journal of rheumatology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 study aimed to translate the Profile of Fatigue and Discomfort-Sicca Symptoms Inventory Short Form questionnaire into the Turkish language (PROFAD-SSI-SF-T) and to investigate its psychometric properties. Methods: The study was completed by 104 patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS), and 83 patients filled out the scale a second time after 7 days for the retest measurement. The PROFAD-SSISF-T, Functional Assessment Chronic Illness Therapy (Fatigue) (FACIT-F), EULAR Sjögren's Syndrome Patient Reported Index (ESSPRI), European Quality of Life 5 Dimensions (EQ-5D), and Patient Global Assessment (PaGA) were applied to 104 patients with pSS for convergent validity. Results: PROFAD-SSI-SF-T found excellent internal consistency (Cronbach's α=0.935) and high test- retest reliability (ICC: 0.83; 95% CI: 0.75-0.88). The standard error of measurement ranged from 1.01 to 3.52, and the minimum detectable difference ranged from 0.92 to 1.17. There was a range from low to high correlation between the PROFAD-SSI-SF-T with ESSPRI, FACIT-F, and EQ-5D. There were no floor and ceiling effects in the PROFAD-SSI-SF-T scale. Conclusion: The PROFAD-SSI-SF-T is a valid and reliable scale to evaluate fatigue, discomfort, and sicca symptoms in Turkish patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome.
