“…We conducted model selection in two steps using the Bayesian information criteria. 31 First, we tested the optimal number of trajectory groups by using a quadratic form for all trajectory groups and the recommended 5% minimum group size requirement. 32 Then, we identified the appropriate order of the polynomial function used to model each group’s trajectory by specifying the shape of each group up to a cubic function.…”

BackgroundWe analysed the COMparison Between All immunoTherapies for Multiple Sclerosis (NCT03193866), a Swedish nationwide observational study in relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS), to identify trajectories of processing speed and physical disability after disease-modulating therapy (DMT) start.MethodsUsing a group-modelling approach, we assessed trajectories of processing speed with oral Symbol Digit Modalities Test (SDMT) and physical disability with Expanded Disability Status Scale, from first DMT start among 1645 patients with RRMS followed during 2011–2022. We investigated predictors of trajectories using group membership as a multinomial outcome and calculated conditional probabilities linking membership across the trajectories.ResultsWe identified 5 stable trajectories of processing speed: low SDMT scores (mean starting values=29.9; 5.4% of population), low/medium (44.3; 25.3%), medium (52.6; 37.9%), medium/high (63.1; 25.8%) and high (72.4; 5.6%). We identified 3 physical disability trajectories: no disability/stable (0.8; 26.8%), minimal disability/stable (1.6; 58.1%) and moderate disability (3.2; 15.1%), which increased to severe disability. Older patients starting interferons were more likely than younger patients starting rituximab to be on low processing speed trajectories. Older patients starting teriflunomide, with more than one comorbidity, and a history of pain treatment were more likely to belong to the moderate/severe physical disability trajectory, relative to the no disability one. There was a strong association between processing speed and physical disability trajectories.ConclusionsIn this cohort of actively treated RRMS, patients’ processing speed remained stable over the years following DMT start, whereas patients with moderate physical disability deteriorated in physical function. Nevertheless, there was a strong link between processing speed and disability after DMT start.

“…A sample of 835 participants with 7247 HbA1c observations were analyzed using GBTM, which, based on longitudinal data, identifies a finite number of distinct trajectory clusters and assigns likely membership of individuals into these clusters. 18 19 The GBTM procedures were similar to models previously used 20–22 with no new adaptations. Participants 4–17 years old at baseline were included, but their HbA1c observations were dropped from further analyses when under age 8 or over 27 years when building the trajectories as the number of measurements outside this age range was deemed too small.…”

“…Having >5% group membership ensures: (1) statistical stability and robustness of the estimated trajectories, (2) meaningful interpretation of distinct subpopulations with more adequate group representation, (3) generalizability because the identified trajectories are more representative of the larger population, and (4) precision of the parameter estimates with narrower CIs. 18 19 23 A larger percent decrease in BIC signifies an improvement in model fit. 18 19 23 The improvement/decrease in the BIC values was large (10.9%) going from a one-trajectory solution to a two-trajectory solution.…”

However, the decrease going from a four-trajectory solution to a five-trajectory solution was less than 1% and there was an even smaller decrease for more elaborate models.…”

IntroductionWe aimed to determine whether caregiver responses to the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) are predictive of HbA1c trajectory membership in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes, when adjusting for covariates.Research design and methodsFor a Danish 2009 national cohort of children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes, we analyzed yearly HbA1c follow-up data during 2010–2020 including sociodemographic data from Danish national registries. Using group-based trajectory modeling and multinomial logistic regression, we tested whether caregiver SDQ scores predicted HbA1c trajectory membership when adjusting for sex, age at diabetes diagnosis, diabetes duration, family structure, and caregiver education.ResultsIn total, 835 children and adolescents (52% females) with a mean (SD) age of 12.5 (3.3) years, and a mean diabetes duration of 5.2 (3.1) years, were included. Based on 7247 HbA1c observations, four HbA1c trajectories were identified: (1) ‘on target, gradual decrease’ (26%), (2) ‘above target, mild increase then decrease’ (41%), (3) ‘above target, moderate increase then decrease’ (24%), and (4) ‘well above target, large increase then decrease’ (9%). Higher SDQ total difficulties scores predicted trajectories 3 and 4 (p=0.0002 and p<0.0001, respectively). Regarding the SDQ subscale scores, emotional symptoms predicted trajectories 3 and 4, and conduct problems and hyperactivity/inattention predicted trajectories 2, 3, and 4. Single-parent family and low caregiver education level both predicted trajectories 3 and 4.ConclusionsCaregiver SDQ responses and sociodemographic information may help detect children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes, who need intensive multidisciplinary medical and psychological interventions.
