“…These validations included a heterogeneous and 73 patients with immune-mediated polyneuropathies 6 and 231 patients with diabetic DSMP. 7 Our study represents the first transcultural validation of this questionnaire. Furthermore, the main advantage of our study is a focus on a large and homogenous cohort of patients with CIDP.…”

“…The Serbian version of the CAPPRI is unidimensional and measures the same construct, which has been previously demonstrated in the original American version . The results of our study suggested that items 2 (pain), 3 (off balance), 5 (sleeping), and 14 (eating) were misfitted to some degree.…”

“…The Chronic Acquired Polyneuropathy Patient‐Reported Index (CAPPRI) is a unidimensional 15‐item patient‐reported index with three response categories, constructed and validated in a multi‐center study in the United States in patients with chronic immune‐mediated polyneuropathies including CIDP . Also, it has been recently validated in patients with diabetic distal sensori(motor) polyneuropathy (DSMP) from the United States and Canada . In these papers, the authors called for further studies, especially in other languages and cultures.…”

To date there are only two validations on the Chronic Acquired Polyneuropathy Patient‐Reported Index (CAPPRI) questionnaire, both originated from the North America. We sought to translate and validate CAPPRI for use in Serbian patients with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP). We included 109 CIDP patients. CAPPRI, short form (36) health survey (SF‐36), Medical Research Council Sum Score (MRC‐SS), Inflammatory Neuropathy Cause and Treatment (INCAT) sensory and disability scores, Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), and Krupp's Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS) were used. Serbian CAPPRI questionnaire was understandable and the language was appropriate and simple. Calculation demonstrated good person (0.9) and item (0.9) reliability with adequate item (4.1), and person (2.9) separation indices. There was a minor floor effect (13.8%), and no ceiling effect. All items had good fit, except items 2 (pain), 5 (sleeping), and 14 (eating) to some degree. Category responses were well ordered and organized, except item 14 (eating). The CAPPRI score did not vary regarding gender, age, or education. Patients with worse scores on MRC‐SS, INCAT sensory score, INCAT disability score, FSS, and BDI had worse scores on CAPPRI (P < .01). The CAPPRI score showed strong correlation with the SF‐36 score (rho = −0.76, P < .01). The Serbian version of the CAPPRI is reliable and valid patient‐reported index for patients with CIDP, able to differentiate between levels of impairment and disability in this disease.

This cross-sectional multicentre study aimed at investigating frequency and features of painful diabetic polyneuropathy. We consecutively enrolled 816 patients attending hospital diabetic outpatient clinics. We first definitely diagnosed diabetic polyneuropathy and pure small-fibre polyneuropathy using clinical examination, nerve conduction study, and skin biopsy or quantitative sensory testing. Adhering to widely agreed criteria, we then identified neuropathic pain and diagnosed painful polyneuropathy using a combined approach of clinical examination and diagnostic tests. Of the 816 patients, 36% had a diabetic polyneuropathy associated with male sex, age, and diabetes severity; 2.5% of patients had a pure small-fibre polyneuropathy, unrelated to demographic variables and diabetes severity. Of the 816 patients, 115 (13%) suffered from a painful polyneuropathy, with female sex as the only risk factor for suffering from painful polyneuropathy. In this large study, providing a definite diagnosis of diabetic polyneuropathy and pure small-fibre polyneuropathy, we show the frequency of painful polyneuropathy and demonstrate that this difficult-to-treat complication is more common in women than in men.
