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.

Abstract

King’s Health Questionnaire (KHQ) is a reliable and valid instrument which assesses the impact of urinary incontinence on quality of life. There is no validated Hungarian version of this questionnaire; therefore, the aim of this study was to develop a reliable and culturally sensitive Hungarian version of the KHQ. A validation study was conducted from May to October 2024. The KHQ was translated into Hungarian in accordance with international guidelines. Participants completed the Hungarian versions of the KHQ, International Consultation on Incontinence Modular Questionnaire-Urinary incontinence Short Form (ICIQ-UI SF) and 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey. Validity and reliability of the Hungarian KHQ was assessed using confirmatory factor analysis (structural validity), Cronbach’s alpha (internal consistency) and intraclass correlation coefficient (test–retest reliability). Convergent validity and discriminant validity were also assessed. Regarding structural validity, all fit indices were found acceptable. Cronbach’s alpha for most domains was above 0.8. Intraclass correlation coefficient values for each domain exceeded 0.817. Regarding correlation between domains of KHQ and ICIQ-SF, most domains of the KHQ were strongly correlated with the overall impact of urinary incontinence (last question of the ICIQ-SF). The Hungarian version of the KHQ is a valid and reliable instrument to evaluate the impact of urinary incontinence on quality of life among Hungarian women.
