Mapping IWQOL-Lite onto EQ-5D-5L and SF-6Dv2 among overweight and obese population in China.
Article in Quality of life research : an international journal of quality of life aspects of treatment, care and rehabilitation, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
purposeTo develop the mapping functions from the Impact of Weight on Quality of Life-Lite (IWQOL-Lite) scores onto the EQ-5D-5L and SF-6Dv2 utility values among the overweight and obese population in China.
methodsA representative sample of the overweight and obese population in China stratified by age, sex, body mass index (BMI), and area of residence was collected by online survey and the sample was randomly divided into development (80%) and validation (20%) datasets. The conceptual overlap between the IWQOL-Lite and the EQ-5D-5L or SF-6Dv2 was evaluated by Spearman's correlation coefficients. Five models, including OLS, Tobit, CLAD, GLM, and PTM were explored to derive mapping functions using the development dataset. The model performance was assessed using MAE, RMSE, and the percentage of AE > 0.05 and AE > 0.1 in the validation dataset.
resultsA total of 1000 respondents (48% female; mean [SD] age: 51.7 [15.3]; mean [SD] BMI: 27.4 [2.8]) were included in this study. The mean IWQOL-Lite scores and the utility values of EQ-5D-5L and SF-6Dv2 were 78.5, 0.851, and 0.734, respectively. The best-performing models predicting EQ-5D-5L and SF-6Dv2 utilities both used IWQOL-Lite total score as a predictor in the CLAD model (MAE: 0.083 and 0.076 for the EQ-5D-5L and SF-6Dv2; RMSE: 0.125 and 0.103 for the EQ-5D-5L and SF-6Dv2; AE > 0.05: 20.5% and 27.5% for the EQ-5D-5L and SF-6Dv2; AE > 0.10: 9.5% and 15.0% for the EQ-5D-5L and SF-6Dv2).
conclusionCLAD models with the IWQOL-Lite total score can be used to predict both the EQ-5D-5L and SF-6Dv2 utility values among overweight and obese population in China.
