Translation and validation of the Chinese version of the post-intensive care syndrome questionnaire.
Article in BMC nursing, 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
objectiveTo translate and validate the Post-Intensive Care Syndrome (PICS) Questionnaire for use in Chinese ICU patient populations.
methodsAuthorization was secured via email from the original author of the questionnaire. Utilizing the Brislin translation model, the questionnaire underwent Sinicization and cultural adaptation to develop the initial Chinese version. A survey was carried out among 278 patients who were discharged from ICU in a tertiary hospital in China. The reliability and validity of the Chinese PICS questionnaire was then assessed.
resultsThe Item Content Validity Index (I-CVI) ranging from 0.84 to 1.0, the Scale Content Validity Index (S-CVI) of 0.92, the Cronbach's α coefficient of 0.903, and the split-half reliability greater than 0.8. The exploratory factor analysis indicated three dimensions with 18 items. The cumulative variance contribution rate was 68.445%. The confirmatory factor analysis results indicated good model fit.
conclusionThe Chinese version of the PICS questionnaire exhibits robust reliability and validity, confirming its suitability for assessing Post-Intensive Care Syndrome in Chinese ICU patients.
