Interpersonal discrimination and health-related quality of life among black and white men and women in the United States
Race and gender associations between obesity and nine health-related quality-of-life measures
Health-related quality of life in adults reporting arthritis
Arthritis in adults is associated with poorer HRQOL. We provide age-related reference values for six generic HRQOL measures in people with arthritis
Gender Differences in Multiple Underlying Dimensions of Health-related Quality of Life Are Associated with Sociodemographic and Socioeconomic Status
PURPOSE: The purpose of the study was to examine whether gender differences in summary health-related quality of life (HRQoL) are due to differences in specific dimensions of health, and whether they are explained by sociodemographic and socioeconomic (SES) variation. METHODS: The National Health Measurement Study collected cross-sectional data on a national sample of 3648 black and white noninstitutionalized adults ages 35 to 89 years. Data incl…
Gender differences in health-related quality-of-life are partly explained by sociodemographic and socioeconomic variation between adult men and women in the US
There are clear gender differences in HRQoL in the United States. These differences are partly explained by sociodemographic and SES differentials
Race and preference-based health-related quality of life measures in the United States
Underlying Dimensions of the Five Health-Related Quality-of-Life Measures Used in Utility Assessment
BACKGROUND: Preference-weighted health-related quality-of-life (HRQoL) indexes produce a summary score from discrete health states determined by questions falling into several attributes, such as pain and mobility. Values of HRQoL are used alongside other health outcomes to monitor the health of populations. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to examine among US adults, the underlying factor structure of HRQoL attribute scores across 5 inde…
Measuring health-related quality of life in population-based studies of coronary heart disease
Generic indexes capture differences in HRQoL in population-based studies of CHD similarly to a score constructed from questions probing CVD-specific symptoms
Socioeconomic Status and Age Variations in Health-Related Quality of Life
Significant improvements in HRQoL at the population level will only be possible if we improve the HRQoL of people at the lowest end of the socioeconomic distribution
Mode of Administration Is Important in US National Estimates of Health-Related Quality of Life
BACKGROUND: It is unknown if different national surveys that vary in mode of administration yield similar national averages for health-related quality of life (HRQoL). PURPOSE: Examine HRQoL scores from 4 surveys representative of the noninstitutionalized US adult population for patterns related to age, gender, and mode of administration. METHODS: We use data from the Joint Canada/United States Survey of Health (JCUSH; telephone survey), 2002 Med…
US Norms for Six Generic Health-Related Quality-of-Life Indexes From the National Health Measurement Study
BACKGROUND: A number of indexes measuring self-reported generic health-related quality-of-life (HRQoL) using preference-weighted scoring are used widely in population surveys and clinical studies in the United States. OBJECTIVE: To obtain age-by-gender norms for older adults on 6 generic HRQoL indexes in a cross-sectional US population survey and compare age-related trends in HRQoL. METHODS: The EuroQol EQ-5D, Health Utilities Index Mark 2, Healt…
Relative Disutilities of 47 Risk Factors and Conditions Assessed with Seven Preference-Based Health Status Measures in a National U.S. Sample
BACKGROUND: Preference-based health measures yield summary scores that are compatible with cost-effectiveness analyses. There is limited comparative information, however, about how different measures weight health conditions in the U.S. population. METHODS: We examined data from 11,421 adults in the 2000 Medical Expenditure Panel Survey, a nationally representative sample of the U.S. general population, using information on sociodemographics (age…

Understanding differences between self-ratings and population ratings for health in the EuroQOL
Halys and Qalys and Dalys, Oh My
Health-adjusted life years (HALYs) are population health measures permitting morbidity and mortality to be simultaneously described within a single number. They are useful for overall estimates of burden of disease, comparisons of the relative impact of specific illnesses and conditions on communities, and in economic analyses. Quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) are types of HALYs whose original purpose…
Toward Consistency in Cost-Utility Analyses
OBJECTIVES: The authors developed an "off-the-shelf" source of health-related quality of life (HRQL) scores for cost-effectiveness analysts unable to collect primary data. METHODS: The authors derived and conducted preliminary validation on a set of health-related quality of life scores for chronic conditions using nationally representative data from the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) and the Healthy People 2000 Years of Healthy Life mea…
Cost-Effectiveness of Strategies for Detecting Diabetic Retinopathy
A computer model has been developed to determine cost-effectiveness of screening and treatment for diabetic retinopathy from a societal viewpoint. This model was used to evaluate biannual and annual screening programs using ophthalmoscopy, fundus photography with a "nonmydriatic camera," and photography with a "mydriatic camera." Computations were performed for three subpopulations formed by patients with younger onset diabetes (age at diagnosis …
An Evaluation of Multiple Trauma Severity Indices Created by Different Index Development Strategies
Evaluation of the effectiveness of emergency trauma care systems is complicated by the need to adjust for the widely variable case mix found in trauma patient populations. Several strategies have been advanced to construct the severity indices that can control for these population differences. This article describes a validity and reliability comparison of trauma severity indices developed under three different approaches: 1) use of a multi-attri…
