The development and use of quality-of-life measures to evaluate health outcomes in Japan.
Review in PharmacoEconomics, 2002. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Health outcomes measurement forms a key aspect of data collection for economic evaluations. Quality-of-life instruments provide a measure of patient-focused health outcomes. Such instruments, including the EuroQoL questionnaire (EQ-5D) and the Short-form 36 (SF-36) are already being used in Japan. Utility instruments provide an alternative way of measuring quality of life for use in economic analyses. At present, utility measurement in Japan is limited to scores derived from the EQ-5D. Although the SF-36 was designed as a health profile measure, it has since been tested for use as a utility measure, with valuation of items now being undertaken in Japan. Utility measurement in Japan is likely to be advanced further by the validation and introduction of the Health Utilities Index. The experiences of other countries provide the opportunity for Japan to learn how utility scores may be used in cost-utility analyses of healthcare technologies.
