Haemodialysis distress thermometer scale: Turkish validity and reliability study.
Article in International urology and nephrology, 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
purposeThis study aimed to translate and adapt the "Haemodialysis Distress Thermometer Scale" (HDDT) into Turkish and assess its validity and reliability.
methodsThis study collected data from 223 haemodialysis patients across three public hospitals in Kütahya province, Türkiye, over a seven-week period.
resultsIn this study, the content validity index of the scale was determined to be 0.96. Validity analysis results indicated that factor loadings ranged between 0.45 and 0.82, the total variance explained was 59.25%, and the fit indices were X
conclusionThe Turkish version of the HDDT is a valid and reliable instrument for assessing distress in patients undergoing haemodialysis treatment. It may serve as a valuable tool for nurses in identifying and addressing patient distress during haemodialysis care.
