Translation and Validation of the Richards-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire for Intensive Care Unit Patients in Morocco: Reliability and Validity Assessment.
Article in Clocks & sleep, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
introductionFor patients in intensive care units, the Richards-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire (RCSQ) seems to be a useful tool for assessing sleep quality. However, its application in the Moroccan medical context could be limited due to the lack of a dialectal Arabic version for Morocco. This study's objective was to translate and validate the RCSQ into Arabic for Moroccan speakers. PATIENTS AND
methodsFor this investigation, a cross-sectional design was adopted. The RCSQ was translated and validated into Arabic for Morocco in accordance with the recommendations. For every scale, psychometric properties were computed. The Cronbach's α coefficient was utilized to evaluate the internal consistency of multi-item measures.
resultsThe study involved 224 patients, whose mean age was 47 ± 18.3 years. The RCSQ's internal consistency, or Cronbach's alpha, was computed, and all dimensions showed good reliability over the 0.92 (0.894-0.983) level. The items demonstrated good reliability and validity, with correlation values larger than 0.4, according to the data.
conclusionThe RCSQ translated into Arabic for Morocco appears to have good psychometric qualities, making it useful for assessing the quality of sleep of patients in intensive care units within Moroccan healthcare settings.
