Translation and Validation of the Persian Version of the Rotator Cuff Quality of Life Questionnaire (RC-QOL): A Cross-Cultural Adaptation Study.
Article in Health science reports, 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
Background and Aims: Rotator cuff injuries have a significant impact on shoulder function and life quality. The Rotator Cuff Quality of Life (RC-QOL) questionnaire is a validated tool designed to assess this impact. This study aimed to translate the RC-QOL into Persian, adapting it culturally, and evaluate its psychometric properties in Persian-speaking patients. Method: The Persian version of the RC-QOL was developed through a rigorous translation and cultural adaptation process, including forward translation, expert review, back-translation, and pilot testing. The final version underwent thorough content and face validity checks. Internal consistency was assessed using Cronbach' Results: Among the 176 Persian-speaking participants, the average age was 38.01 ± 9.36 years. The Persian RC-QOL displayed outstanding internal consistency, with Cronbach' Conclusion: The Persian version of RC-QOL proves to be a reliable and valid tool for evaluating the quality of life in Iranian patients with rotator cuff injuries. Its successful cross-cultural adaptation enhances its applicability in Iranian clinical and research domains, potentially extending to other Persian-speaking regions.
