Biopsychosocial Prognosis Scale for Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting - Brazilian Version: Adaptation and Content Validity.
Article in Brazilian journal of cardiovascular surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
introductionThe Biopsychosocial Prognosis Scale for Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (BIPROSCAB) assesses biophysical symptoms and psychosocial experiences following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), thereby enabling the targeting of interventions to improve post-procedure biopsychosocial prognosis. The aim of this study was to adapt the BIPROSCAB for use in Brazil and assess the content validity of the adapted version.
methodsFor the cross-cultural adaptation, English-Portuguese translations, synthesis of translations, back-translations, assessment of back-translations for conceptual consistency by the authors of the original instrument, and evaluation of semantic, idiomatic, cultural, and conceptual equivalences by 11 expert judges were performed. Modifications were made based on suggestions until consensus > 80% was achieved. For the content validity assessment, experts assessed the clarity, theoretical relevance, and practical pertinence of the items, which were considered adequate when the content validity ratio (CVR) > 0.635. Post-CABG patients completed the questionnaire and evaluated understandability of the items.
resultsThree rounds were required to achieve the desired agreement in the cross-cultural adaptation process. In the content evaluation by experts, only one round was needed, with CVR > 0.635. Following content evaluation by patients, it was decided to reverse the order of the response scale to an ascending order.
conclusionThe Brazilian version, BIPROSCAB-Br, is equivalent to the original instrument and has satisfactory evidence of content validity. Additional psychometric assessments are needed for use in Brazil.
