“…Twelve studies were multicentric. Various PROMs were used for QOL (SF-36, original and version 2 [ 10 ], EuroQol 5 dimensions [EQ-5D] [ 58 ]], mood disorders (HADS-anxiety [HADS-A], HADS-depression [HADS-D] [ 13 ]), fatigue (Multidimensional fatigue inventory [MFI-20] [ 59 ]), disability (HAQ, International Physical Activity Questionnaire—Short Form [IPAQ-SF] [ 60 ], Walking Impairment Questionnaire (WIQ) [ 61 ], Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire (WPAI) [ 62 ]], perceptions about illness (Illness Perception Questionnaire [IPQ-R] [ 63 ], Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire [BIPQ] [ 64 ], Nottingham Health Profile [NHP] [ 65 ]) and fibromyalgia [ 66 ]. Characteristics of included studies are summarized in Table 1 .…”

Patient-Reported Outcome Measures in Takayasu Arteritis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Introduction: We conducted a systematic review of patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) regarding quality of life, disability, mood abnormalities (anxiety, depression), fatigue, illness perceptions and fibromyalgia in Takayasu arteritis (TAK). Wherever available, comparisons with healthy controls, disease controls or longitudinal changes in PROMs were noted. Methods: MEDLINE, EMBASE, Scopus, Web of Science and Pubmed Central databases, major recent international rheumatology conference abstracts, clinical trial databases and the Cochrane library were searched for relevant articles. Wherever possible, outcome measures across studies were pooled using the restricted maximum likelihood model. Inter-group differences were pooled and compared using standardized mean differences (SMD) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CI). Heterogeneity was assessed using the I 2 statistic. Quality of randomized controlled trials was assessed using the Cochrane risk of bias tool. For cross-sectional and cohort studies, the Joana Briggs Institute checklist and Newcastle-Ottawa scale were used, respectively. GRADE methodology was used to determine the certainty of evidence for outcomes. Results: Twenty-one studies (all but one observational) involving 1311 patients with TAK and 308 healthy controls were identified. Ten studies (559 TAK patients, 182 healthy controls were synthesized in a meta-analysis. Patients with TAK had worse quality of life (pooled SMD -6.66, 95% CI -10.08 to -3.23 for individual domains; -0.64, 95% CI -1.19 to -0.09 for pooled physical and mental component scores of 36-item Short Form Survey), depression (SMD 0.26, 95% 0.05-0.47) and anxiety (SMD 0.34, 95% CI -0.06 to 0.75) Durga P. Misra and Upendra Rathore are joint first authors.

“…EuroQol 5-Dimensions The EQ-5D score assesses QOL across five dimensions, rated across three or five levels, with a visual analog score estimate of overall health ranging from 0 to 100 (higher scores indicating better health) [58]. Two studies reported EQ-5D in patients with TAK.…”

“…Aerobic physical activity was divided into whether a week of moderate-intensity physical activity was performed for 2 h 30 min or more, high-intensity physical activity for 1 h 15 min or more, or a mixture of moderate-intensity and high-intensity physical activity (1 min of high intensity = 2 min of moderate intensity). The EQ-5D is a widely used survey instrument for describing health-related quality of life status [13]. To measure the subjects' health-related quality of life, EQ-5D was used for exercise ability, self-management, daily activities, pain, and depression.…”

The purpose of this cross-sectional study was to identify risk factors in the normotensive and pre-hypertensive group based on the blood pressure results of healthy young adults from the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2018. The participants were 2225 healthy young adults between the ages of 19 and under 45, excluding those with a diagnosis of hypertension or taking antihypertensive medications. Of the 2225 participants, the normotensive group was 1498 (67.3%) and the pre-hypertensive group 727 (32.7%). Determinants of pre-hypertension were analyzed using multiple logistic regression based on a complex sample design. Factors related to pre-hypertension in young adults were age, smoking, waist circumference, diabetes, anemia, cholesterol levels including HDL cholesterol, and uric acid levels. Pre-hypertension is a pre-stage that can prevent the morbidity of hypertension through lifestyle control, so its management is very important. Furthermore, a young adult is a stage in the growth and development of human beings, in which lifestyles such as healthy behaviors, eating habits, and exercise are fixed. Therefore, it is very important to improve lifestyles such as diet, exercise, and smoking cessation and to control risk factors in young adults who are at the pre-hypertension stage for health promotion. Continuous health examinations should be conducted for young adults, and education that can be practiced based on clinical data through this should be implemented for community health.

“…The EQ-5D(-3L or -5L) [ 23 ], Health Utilities Index Mark 2 or Mark 3 (HUI2 and HUI3), Short-Form-6 Dimension (SF-6D)—derived from the SF12 or 36, quality of well-being (QWB) scale, the assessment of quality of life (AQoL) suite of instruments and 15 Dimension (15D) are the most popular MAUIs [ 24 ]. They differ in their conceptualisation, content, length and methods used for converting health state descriptions into utilities.…”

The impact of loneliness and social isolation on health state utility values: a systematic literature review

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Background Loneliness and social isolation are recognised as social problems and denote a significant health burden. The aim of this study was to conduct a systematic literature review to explore the health state utility values (HSUVs) associated with loneliness and/or social isolation. Method Peer-reviewed journals published in English language that reported both HSUVs along with loneliness and/or social isolation scores were identified through five databases. No restrictions were made relating to the population, study design or utility estimation method used. Results In total, 19 papers were included; 12 included a measure of loneliness, four studies included a measure of social isolation and three studies considered both loneliness and social isolation. All studies focused on individuals with pre-existing health conditions—where the EQ-5D-3L instrument was most frequently used to assess HSUVs. HSUVs ranged from 0.5 to 0.95 in those who reported not being lonely, 0.42 to 0.97 in those who experienced some level of loneliness, 0.3 to 0.87 in those who were socially isolated and 0.63 to 0.94 in those who were not socially isolated. Conclusion There was significant variation in HSUVs complicated by the presence of co-morbidities, population heterogeneity, variations in methods used to derive utility scores and differences in the measurement of loneliness and/or social isolation. Nevertheless, the lower HSUVs observed should be considered to significantly impact quality of life, though we also note the need for further research to explore the unique impact of loneliness and social isolation on HSUVs that can be used in the future economic evaluations.
