Bridging the gap: translating and simplifying CFIR 2.0 for French practitioners in implementation science.
Article in Implementation science communications, 2025. 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
backgroundThe Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) 2.0 is widely used in implementation projects but can be difficult for non-researchers to apply due to its complexity. While a French version of the original CFIR exists, CFIR 2.0 had not yet been translated. This study aimed to translate and simplify CFIR 2.0 for healthcare practitioners in French-speaking Switzerland to improve its accessibility and utility.
methodUsing the Principles of Good Practice for Translation and Cultural Adaptation, the process included: (1) four independent forward translations, (2) reconciliation of simplified definitions, (3) online survey with 16 clinical nurse specialists to assess the content validity of the simplified definitions, (4) back translation, and (5) harmonization to finalize the French version. The content validity of each construct was assessed using the Content Validity Index (CVI), with further revisions based on feedback.
resultsMost participants found the simplified definitions understandable, with an average score of 1.46 (where 1 is "very easy to understand" and 2 is "easy to understand"). Thirteen items with lower I-CVI scores (≤ 0.78) were revised. The overall S-CVI was 0.87, indicating high content validity. Minor discrepancies in the back translation were resolved.
conclusionsThis study produced a French translation of CFIR 2.0 with simplified definitions tailored for healthcare practitioners. The high content validity and feedback underscore the need for contextually relevant adaptations to enhance the practical use of the CFIR framework. Further testing in diverse French-speaking contexts is necessary to refine the tool and broaden its applicability in real-world settings.
