“…However, reliability is lower than that of the original version, as is the case of SPADI [ 65 , 67 , 68 ]. Except for specific exceptions, all these questionnaires are also in line with other versions published in other languages, with population groups as diverse as Chinese [ 64 ], Turkish [ 57 , 63 ], Korean [ 56 , 59 ], Polish [ 60 ], Hebrew [ 77 ], French [ 61 ], Persian [ 24 , 62 ], German [ 54 , 58 ], Finnish [ 55 ] and Spanish [ 28 , 53 ], among others. The fact that there are multiple versions of the same questionnaire and that, in addition, they have similar psychometric characteristics, makes it possible to compare the results of different studies, thus expanding the possibility of understanding the eventual compared results.…”

Introduction There is no systematic review that analyzes the psychometric properties of questionnaires in Italian. Previous studies have analyzed the psychometric characteristics of instruments for the measurement of pathologies of upper limbs and their joints in different languages. The aim of the present study was to analyze the psychometric properties of the questionnaires published in Italian for the evaluation of the entire upper limb or some of its specific regions and related dysfunctions. Evidence acquisition For the development of this systematic review, the following databases were used: PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane, Dialnet, Cinahl, Embase and PEDro. The selection criteria used in this study were: studies of transcultural adaptation to Italian of questionnaires oriented to the evaluation of upper limbs or any of their structures (specifically shoulder, elbow and wrist/hand), and contribution of psychometric variables of the questionnaire in its Italian version. Evidence synthesis After reading the titles and applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria to the complete documents, 16 documents were selected: 3 for the upper limb, 8 for the shoulder, 1 for the elbow and 4 for the wrist and hand. The cross-sectional psychometric variables show levels between good and excellent in all the questionnaires. Longitudinal psychometric variables had not been calculated in the vast majority of the analyzed questionnaires. Conclusions Italian versions of the questionnaires show good basic structural and psychometric characteristics for the evaluation of patients with musculoskeletal disorders of the upper limb and its joints (shoulder, elbow and wrist/hand).

“…Azevedo et al also found that mHAMIS and HAMIS were correlated. The same study emphasized that the test had a high Cronbach's alpha value, with good intra‐ and inter‐observer reliability 14 . The high Cronbach's alpha coefficient and high intra‐ and inter‐observer agreements found in our study also showed that this test was valid for Turkish patients.…”

“…Azevedo et al divided SSc patients into 2 groups based on the presence of digital ulcer, arthritis, pitting scar on the hand, and SSc type. However, they found no difference between the mHAMIS scores of the groups 14 . In our study, patients with digital ulcers, deformity, and diffuse form of SSc had significantly higher mHAMIS scores.…”

Objective Hand Mobility in Scleroderma (HAMIS) is a hand function test used to determine the degree of dysfunction of hand movements. The Modified Hand Mobility in Scleroderma (mHAMIS), on the other hand, was developed later and consists of 4 items. The aim of this study was to determine the reliability and validity of mHAMIS. Methods This study included a total of 39 patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) who were assessed with mHAMIS. The Cronbach's α coefficient, Kappa concordance, and intraclass correlation were respectively used to assess the internal consistency, intra‐ and inter‐observer agreement, and inter‐observer reliability of the test. The correlation between the Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ), the Duruoz Hand Index (DHI), and the Turkish version of mHAMIS were evaluated. Results The internal consistency of the test items was between .912 and .939. The total internal consistency of the test was excellent, with a Cronbach's alpha value of .954. The intra‐ and inter‐observer agreement were good, with Kappa values of 0.954 (95% CI 0.89‐1.6) and 0.965 (95% CI 0.82‐1.4), respectively. The inter‐observer reliability was 0.966 (95% CI 0.936‐0.982; P<.0001). There was a strong correlation between DHI, HAQ, and mHAMIS (r: .7‐.8). Conclusion The Turkish version of the mHAMIS test showed good intra‐ and inter‐observer agreement, intra‐observer reliability, and internal consistency. This test is a reliable and valid tool to assess hand functions in Turkish SSc patients.

“…Self-assessment questionnaires have been used in the literature to evaluate treatment results for different health problems. The translation and cultural adaptation to Brazilian Portuguese makes it possible to use these instruments in Brazil [22][23][24]. In search for a more specific tool, questionnaires have been described to evaluate the pain intensity and the functional limitation caused by rhizarthrosis.…”

Background Osteoarthritis is the most common form of hand arthritis and arthritis of the carpometacarpal joint of the thumb is a potentially limiting disease. There is no homogeneity in the evaluation of outcomes for the rhizarthrosis treatment. In an attempt to standardize the evaluation of results, some subjective questionnaires, non-specific, were used to evaluate rhizarthrosis. Trapeziometacarpal Arthrosis Symptoms and Disability (TASD) was described by Becker et al.with the purpose of evaluating symptom intensity and degree of disability, as to compare results after treatment. Our objective is to translate, validate and do the cultural adaptation of the questionnaire TASD into the Brazilian Portuguese. Methods The questionnaire was translated, with reverse translation. The translations were evaluated and synthesized by a committee, arriving at TASD-BR. Thirty-one patients with a diagnosis of rhizarthrosis answered the questionnaire. We evaluated, the internal consistency, reliability, agreement and ceiling and floor effect for validation. Results The questionnaires were translated and adapted according to defined protocols. The internal consistency, through Cronbach's α coefficient for TASD-BR, was 0.927. The questionnaire's reliability, through the Intraclass Correlation Coefficient, was also shown to be quite high, with κ = 0.961 (0.954–0.967). The agreement, measured through the Standard Error Measurement, remained with standardized values below 5%. There was no ceiling and floor effect. Conclusion Through specific methodology we consider TASD-BR translated and valid for the Brazilian Portuguese.
