Quality-of-life measures and their psychometric properties used in African chronic kidney disease populations: a systematic review using COSMIN methodology.

This review highlighted that only one HRQoL questionnaire used in studies of African populations with CKD underwent a small number of cultural adaptations and psychometric validations, generally of poor methodological quality. HRQoL validation studies in African CKD populations are needed to better take advantage of the benefits in patient care, population health management, and research.
