Development of an endometriosis self-care behaviors scale: a psychometric study.
Article in BMC women's health, 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
backgroundIn this study, it was aimed to develop the Endometriosis Self-Care Behaviors Scale and test its validity and reliability.
methodsThis methodological study was conducted with 400 women diagnosed with endometriosis. Data were collected using a “Participant Description Questionnaire” and the “Endometriosis Self-Care Behaviors Scale”. The construct validity of the scale was tested by exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis. The reliability of the scale was measured using Cronbach’s alpha internal consistency coefficient, item-total score correlations, and test–retest analysis.
resultsThe results of the exploratory factor analysis showed a construct consisting of 17 items collected under 4 factors. According to the results of the confirmatory factor analysis, the goodness-of-fit indices of the scale were adequate. The Cronbach's alpha internal consistency coefficient of the scale was 0.79, its item-total score correlation coefficients varied in the range of 0.17–0.54, and the intraclass correlation coefficient calculated between its test and retest implementations was 0.71.
conclusionEndometriosis Self-Care Behaviors Scale is a valid and reliable scale that can be used to evaluate the self-care behaviors of women with endometriosis.
