The hypothesis for evaluating convergent validity was if a correlation between the PROM under study and the comparator instrument measuring the similar construct was ≥ 0.50, it was considered as sufficient [60]. The hypothesis testing for evaluating discriminant validity and responsiveness were in accordance with that in individual studies
+ = sufficient; –= insufficient; ? = indeterminate; 0 = no data available
