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

Patient experience is a critical indicator of healthcare quality and therefore requires assessment using robust measurement tools. One such is the Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) survey. However, limited evidence supports its validation, underscoring the need for further psychometric evaluation across diverse healthcare contexts. A multicenter cross-sectional psychometric study was conducted across three private hospitals in Turkey. Between December 2023 and December 2024, data were collected from 478 patients following hospital discharge. Content validity was assessed using content validity indices, and construct validity was examined through confirmatory factor analysis. Reliability was assessed using Cronbach's alpha and McDonald's omega. The Turkish HCAHPS maintained its original structure with excellent content validity. Confirmatory factor analysis demonstrated a good model fit (χ
