“…The present study indicated that the highest and lowest percentage of celling effect was related to self-care and anxiety/depression levels in both of the 3L and 5L, respectively. Our results on celling effect are consistent with studies conducted in Poland 27 and Thailand. 22 A study in Greece 26 found that the highest and lowest proportion of 'no problems' response in both 3L and 5L systems was related to self-care and anxiety/depression which is consistence with our study findings.…”

Background: Little information exists on properties of EQ-5D-5L (the 5L hereafter) compared to the EQ-5D-3L (the 3L hereafter) measures in the context of Iran. This study aims to compare the measurement properties of the two versions of the EQ-5D (the 3L vs. the 5L) using data obtained from general population in Iran.Methods: A total of 886 adults aged 18 years and above from September to November 2020 participated in this cross-sectional analysis. The required data collected using self-administered and-standard questionnaire and multistage sampling method was used to select the samples. The 3L and 5L measures compared in terms of celling effect, distribution and redistribution pattern, feasibility, convergent validity, know-groups validity and informativity.Results: From September to November 2020, 886 adults (mean aged = 44.6 years; 55% male and 87.1% married) included in the study. The study indicated that the 5L had lower celling effects compared to the 3L (45% vs. 46%). A better convergent validity and known-groups validity was found for the 5L version compared to the 3L and significantly stronger association found between the 5L measure with both the Visual Analogue Scale and the 5-point health status scale. The 5L index score showed higher relative efficiency (RE) in 9 of 11 condition (mean RE = 1.36).Compared to the 3L, the 5L classification system had higher Shannon index (H 0 ) in all dimensions: mobility (0.52 vs.

“…Our results for the known-groups validation are consistent with findings of previous studies. [26][27][28] For example, Yfantopoulos and Chantzaras 26 showed that there was higher discriminatory performance of the 5L compared with the 3L version in groups defined by sociodemographic characteristics, except for gender and economic status.…”

“…The EQ-5D questionnaire also comprises a Visual Analog Scale (VAS), measuring respondents’ perceived health status, ranging from 0 (the worst thinkable wellbeing) to 100 (the best thinkable wellbeing) [ 29 ]. Specifically, the EQ-5D index value describes the health state, while the EQ-VAS gives information about individual health perception [ 30 , 31 ].…”

COVID-19 became a pandemic in a few months, leading to adverse health outcomes, reducing the quality of life, affecting the sleep/wake cycle, and altering coping strategies, especially among hospital personnel. Life quality, insomnia, and coping strategies were thus assessed among hospital personnel during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in Italy. This cross-sectional study was conducted from May to November 2020 through an online survey. There were 558 participants (28.5% males and 71.5% females) enrolled in two different metropolitan areas (in North and South of Italy, respectively). Three standardized questionnaires were administered: European Quality of life–5 Dimensions (EQ-5D), Athens Insomnia Scale (AIS), and Brief COPE. Differences in sociodemographic characteristics and work-related factors were also investigated in order to identify possible predictors through a generalized linear model and logistic regression analysis. Results showed good perceived life quality and high insomnia prevalence. After sample stratification, the statistical analysis highlighted that personal (gender, age, educational level) and work-related factors (employment in COVID wards, remote working) played different roles in predicting quality of life, insomnia, and coping attitude. Active, Planning, and Acceptance were the most frequently adopted coping strategies. Despite women confirming their attitude in reacting to the difficulties, adopting emotion-focused coping strategies, they showed a higher probability to develop insomnia, so a gender perspective should be considered in the health protection of this working category. An integrated approach should be implemented at individual, interpersonal and organizational levels aiming to monitor psychological distress, favor regular sharing and communication between peers, and also allow conciliation of work with family life. At the organizational level, preventive and protective measures adequate to work-related risk to COVID-19 should be adopted.

“…A recent systematic review of the literature demonstrated excellent psychometric properties of the EQ-5D across a broad range of populations and conditions [16]. The EQ-5D appears to be reliable and valid in the general population [17][18][19][20][21][22], and so does the SF-6D [23][24][25]. Thus, the reliability and validity of such instruments in the general population are useful for future population health studies.…”

Background Evidence of health utility changes in patients who suffer from longstanding health complaints attributed to dental amalgam fillings are limited. The change in health utility outcomes enables calculating quality-adjusted life-year (QALY) and facilitates the comparison with other health conditions. The purpose of this study was to estimate the validity and responsiveness of the EQ-5D-5L and SF-6D utilities following removal of dental amalgam fillings in patients with health complaints attributed to their amalgam fillings, and examine the ability of these instruments to detect minimally important changes over time. Methods Patients with medically unexplained physical symptoms, which they attributed to dental amalgam restorations, were recruited to a prospective cohort study in Norway. Two health state utility instruments, EQ-5D-5L and SF-6D, as well as self-reported general health complaints (GHC-index) and visual analogue scale (EQ-VAS) were administered to all patients (n = 32) at baseline and at follow-up. The last two were used as criteria measures. Concurrent and predictive validities were examined using correlation coefficients. Responsiveness was assessed by the effect size (ES), standardized response mean (SRM), and relative efficiency. Minimally important change (MIC) was examined by distribution and anchor-based approaches. Results Concurrent validity of the EQ-5D-5L was similar to that of SF-6D utility. EQ-5D-5L was more responsive than SF-6D: the ES were 0.73 and 0.58 for EQ-5D-5L and SF-6D, respectively; SRM were 0.76 and 0.67, respectively. EQ-5D-5L was more efficient than SF-6D in detecting changes, but both were less efficient compared to criteria-based measures. The estimated MIC of EQ-5D-5L value set was 0.108 and 0.118 based on distribution and anchor-based approaches, respectively. The corresponding values for SF-6D were 0.048 and 0.064, respectively. Conclusions In patients with health complaints attributed to dental amalgam undergoing amalgam removal, both EQ-5D-5L and SF-6D showed reasonable concurrent and predictive validity and acceptable responsiveness. The EQ-5D-5L utility appears to be more responsive compared to SF-6D. Trial registration The research was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov., NCT01682278. Registered 10 September 2012, https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01682278.
