Reliability and validity of the PORTRAIT-10 tool for assessing complex health care needs in French-speaking people living with chronic pain.
Article in PloS one, 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
Chronic pain (CP) presents multidimensional components, leading individuals to experience complex biopsychosocial needs. However, efficient tools to assess these needs remain scarce. PORTRAIT-10 is a tool designed to measure the complexity of patients' needs. The present study was aimed at documenting the psychometric properties of this tool in a sample of individuals with CP who completed the INTERMED-Self Assessment (IMSA), PORTRAIT-10, Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS), and Pain Self-Efficacy Questionnaire (PSEQ). PORTRAIT-10 was re-administered 3 weeks later. The sample comprised 295 participants. Mean age of the respondents was 53.3 ± 9.3 years; 88.3% were females. The median pain duration was 15 years. Results of an exploratory factor analysis showed that a 4-factor solution best fit the PORTRAIT-10 data, with at least 2 of these factors (psychological and social) being consistent with the conceptual framework of the tool. PORTRAIT-10 also showed acceptable internal consistency (Cronbach α = 0.67, 0.73) and very good reliability over time (ρ = 0.85). Correlation with IMSA was high (ρ = 0.74) and as expected, was low with PCS (ρ = 0.34) suggesting a very good construct validity. A ROC analysis demonstrated that a PORTRAIT-10 cut-off score of 10 displayed good sensitivity (0.86) and specificity (0.71) in detecting complex care needs in this population. This study provides initial validity and reliability of PORTRAIT-10 and suggests that this tool may be helpful in identifying individuals with CP who have complex needs. Further research is needed to explore the psychometric properties of PORTRAIT-10 in large and more diverse chronic pain populations and to evaluate its impact on clinical outcomes.
