1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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, culturally adapt and validate the Cuestionário de Expectativas (CEA) for the Brazilian context, with focus on assessing the expectations of patients during pre-surgical stage.

methodsAn analytical and descriptive study was carried out, including translation, back-translation, adaptation and validation of the CEA. The process involved 119 participants who answered the questionnaire, allowing the analysis of understanding of the items using the Content Validity Index (CVI) and Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA). Reliability was assessed with Cronbach's Alpha, McDonald's Omega and Composite Reliability coefficients, using Item Response Theory (IRT).

resultsThe questionnaire had a total CVI of 0.974, indicating good comprehension by the participants, as well as high values for three internal consistency coefficients (⍺ = 0.828; ω = 0.854; CC = 0.900). The instrument showed great consistency indices and validity measures to be applied on a large scale.

conclusionThe validity and reliability of the instrument were confirmed. Therefore, the instrument was translated, adapted and validated for Brazilian Portuguese. LEVELS OF EVIDENCE: Step 2.
