Translation and psychometric evaluation of Self-Care of Hypertension Inventory Version 3.0 (SC-HI v3.0) in Iranian population.

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: Self-care is a key element of hypertension control. This study was carried out with the purpose of translating and investigating the psychometric features of the Persian version of Self-care of Hypertension Inventory Version 3.0 (SC-HI v3.0) in Iranian hypertensive population. Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out in 593 people with hypertension in 2023 in Gonabad city (Iran). The participants were included by stratified random sampling from the community health centers of Gonabad city. The translation of the scale was done according to the multi-stage guideline of the instrument developers. The validity of the SC-HI v3.0 was examined by qualitative face validity, qualitative and quantitative content validity and construct validity assessed by confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). The reliability of the SC-HI v3.0 was also evaluated by calculating intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and Cronbach's alpha coefficient. Data analysis was done using Amos software version 24 and SPSS software version 25. Results: In the translation process, face validity, and content validity evaluation, almost all the items of SC-HI v3.0 were partially revised without changing the main concept. In the construct validity evaluation, the results of CFA confirmed the Persian version of SC-HI v3.0 with 21 items and including three scales of maintenance with two factors (7 items), monitoring with one factor (7 items), and management with one factor (7 items). Finally, in reliability evaluation, Cronbach's alpha coefficient and ICC were 0.879 and 0.842, respectively. Conclusion: Considering the lack of a comprehensive and brief tool for measuring hypertension self-care in Iran, the Persian version of the SC-HI v3.0 with 21 items and 3 scales, can be a valid and reliable inventory for self-care evaluation in Iranian hypertensive patients.
