Validation of the Arabic eHealth literacy questionnaire: a factor and Rasch analysis study.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Introduction: Amidst the rapid digitalization of healthcare, there is a need for tools that accurately assess eHealth literacy across cultural contexts. This study focused on the validation of an Arabic version of the eHealth Literacy Questionnaire (eHLQ), a tool to facilitate patient engagement and health outcomes in digital healthcare. Method: Using a convenience sampling method, the study recruited a diverse sample of 657 participants from Jordan (58.9% females and 41.1% males). Results: Confirmatory Factor Analysis and Rasch analysis supported a six-factor model and demonstrated satisfactory item performance within established thresholds. The findings revealed good internal consistency with Cronbach's α ranging between ranging between 0.71 to 0.84. Differential Item Functioning analysis indicated no gender-specific variations. Discussion: The validated Arabic eHLQ is a reliable tool that can help in supporting the development of tailored interventions to improve healthcare delivery in Arabic-speaking regions.
