Health-related quality of life in inflammatory bowel disease measured with the generic 15D instrument.
Article in Quality of life research : an international journal of quality of life aspects of treatment, care and rehabilitation, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
objectivesIn many surveys, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has been shown to have a negative impact on health-related quality of life (HRQoL), especially when the disease is active. The purpose of this study was to compare a disease-specific HRQoL tool (Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire, IBDQ) and a generic HRQoL tool (15D) in a large cohort of IBD patients, to assess the ability of the 15D to detect differences in HRQoL between disease states and to compare the HRQoL of IBD patients with that of the general population.
methodsThe study population comprised 2,931 IBD patients over 18 picked from a national Social Insurance Institute register and from a patient organization register. The 15D data for the general population came from the National Health 2000 Health Examination Survey.
resultsFor patients with IBD, the 15D tool was feasible and had good discriminatory power. The total 15D score was significantly higher among patients with less active disease estimated by frequency of IBD symptoms and was strongly correlated with total IBDQ score. The general population scored significantly higher than did the study subjects on most of the 15D dimensions.
conclusionsThe 15D was a fast and easy-to-apply method for the examination of HRQoL in IBD patients. In addition to HRQoL studies it could be used in everyday practice as well. Patients with IBD have worse HRQoL than do gender- and age-standardized controls.
