由于缺乏关于许多主题的信息,文献中发表的涉及生活质量测量的临床试验存在重要的弱点。这些工具往往缺乏心理测量特性,也缺乏关于接受治疗和分析的病人人数的数据。缺失数据的处理很少有记录。为了便于临床试验的报告和已发表结果的评价,本文提出了一套包括生活质量评估的临床试验报告的一般指南。附件中附有一份旨在帮助作者的核对表。
Clinical trials involving quality of life measurement published in the literature suffer from important weaknesses due to the lack of information on numerous topics. The psychometric properties of the instruments are often lacking as well as data on the number of patients treated and analyzed. The handling of missing data is rarely documented. In order to facilitate the reporting of trials and the evaluation of published results, this article proposes a set of general guidelines for the reporting of clinical trials which include a quality of life assessment. A checklist designed to assist authors is appended.
