1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundAn updated version of the Short-Form 6-Dimension (SF-6D) Classification System has been developed. This new version (SF-6Dv2) with improved consistency and dimension descriptors is now requiring the development of new utility value sets. The aim of this study was to estimate an SF-6Dv2 value set from a general population in Quebec, Canada.

methodsA discrete choice experiment with time trade-off (DCE

resultsThe survey was completed online by 1208 participants and 1153 were included for analysis. The model combining Design 1 and 2 data was considered as the best fitting model for estimating the final value set. It provided a value set with logical consistent coefficients and showed the lowest standard errors. Values ranged from -0.683 for the worst health state (555655) to 1 for full health (111111), with 13.01% of the values being negative. Preference values were the most affected by pain dimension and the least by vitality dimension. Preference heterogeneity existed for all the most severe levels of dimensions.

conclusionThis study provided the SF-6Dv2 value set for use in Quebec, Canada. The recommended value set is the anchored consistent model combining data from Design 1 and 2 using a conditional logit.
