Article Synopsis
- The Manchester Respiratory Activities of Daily Living Questionnaire (MRADLQ) is a reliable tool for assessing functional level in COPD patients, but it hadn't been validated in Hong Kong prior to this study.
- A Chinese version with pictorial enhancements (C-MRADLQ) was developed and tested for reliability and validity among 238 COPD patients and 64 controls.
- Results show that C-MRADLQ has excellent reliability and strong correlations with various COPD assessment metrics, indicating it can effectively predict overall patient condition in a clinical setting.

Specifically, it is generally assumed that the multiple-choice format bypasses the need to retrieve information.
