Cross-cultural adaptation and psychometric properties of the Arabic version of the Telerehabilitation Usability Questionnaire.
Article in Annals of medicine, 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 objective of this study was to translate and cross‑culturally adapt the Telerehabilitation Usability Questionnaire (TUQ) into Arabic (TUQ-Arabic) and analyse the psychometric properties of the questionnaire. PATIENTS AND
methodsTranslation and cross-cultural adaptation have been conducted following international guidelines. A cohort of 270 Arabic-speaking participants completed the TUQ-Arabic. This study included participants who had utilised telerehabilitation services. Internal consistency was assessed with Cronbach's alpha coefficient. The test-re-test reliability was performed on 69 participants using the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC).
resultsThe cohort of the study comprised of 118 female (43.7%) and 152 male (56.3%) participants. Our findings indicate robust internal consistency in TUQ-Arabic subscales, exhibiting excellent Cronbach's alpha values (>0.90, ranging from 0.902 to 0.940). The overall TUQ-Arabic score displayed excellent internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha = 0.98). The test-re-test reliability of the total TUQ-Arabic score was excellent, with an ICC of 0.975 (95% CI 0.960-0.984,
conclusionThe TUQ-Arabic is internally consistent and reliable, paralleling the original TUQ. Participants displayed favourable views on the telerehabilitation services, resulting in high satisfaction. The TUQ-Arabic is suitable for assessing the usability of remote telerehabilitation services in Saudi Arabia and populations globally.
