Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) is the most common health-related quality of life measure in dermatology that widely used treatment guidelines for psoriasis. Eight 10 questions DLQI offer a 'not relevant' response (NRR) option scored as item had no impact on patients' at all.To explore occurrence NRRs psoriasis patients and to examine effect several socio-demographic clinical factors giving NRRs.Data were obtained from two cross-sectional surveys among academic clinics Hungary....
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common chronic inflammatory skin disorder affecting up to 10% of adults. The EQ-5D the most commonly used generic preference-accompanied measure generate quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) for economic evaluations.
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a, chronic skin disease affecting up to 1% of the population in Europe. This study aims assess cost-of-illness HS from a societal perspective Hungary and analyze predictors costs.A multicentre, cross-sectional was performed among 200 adult patients. We evaluated direct medical (physician consultations, inpatient admissions, medical, surgeries), non-medical (transportation caregiving), indirect costs (productivity loss).The mean annual €6,791 per patient. The...
Abstract Purpose Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease that affects up to 1% of the population in Europe. The EQ-5D most commonly used generic instrument for measuring health-related quality life among HS patients. This study aims compare measurement properties two adult versions (EQ-5D-3L and EQ-5D-5L) patients with HS. Methods We recruited 200 consecutive (mean age 37 years, 38% severe or very HS) participate multicentre cross-sectional survey. Patients...
In the Central and Eastern European region, British EQ-5D-3L value set is used commonly in quality of life (QoL) studies. Only Poland Slovenia have country-specific weights. Our study aimed to investigate impact choice on evaluation 18 chronic conditions Hungary.Patients' index scores were calculated using VAS-based Slovenian time-trade-off-based Polish sets. We performed pairwise comparisons mean values by dimensions, diagnoses age groups. evaluated disease burden comparing matched gender...
Abstract Background Several different coronavirus disease (COVID-19) vaccines were authorized and distributed all over the world, including Hungary, but vaccination rates acceptance of varied through 2021 subsequent years. In Hungary Western Chinese Russian available in early 2021. Understanding preference willingness to pay (WTP) for COVID-19 vaccine could provide information policy decision making control pandemic. We aimed assess socio-demographic factors influencing analyse individual...
Abstract Purpose Eight of the ten items Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) have a ‘not relevant’ response (NRR) option. There are two possible ways to interpret NRRs: they may be considered at all’ or missing responses. We aim compare measurement performance DLQI in psoriasis patients when NRRs scored as ‘0’ (hereafter zero-scoring) and ‘missing’ missing-scoring) using Rasch model analysis. Methods Data 425 with from earlier cross-sectional surveys were re-analysed. All completed...
Cost-of-illness studies are widely used for healthcare decision-making in chronic conditions. Our aim was to assess the cost-of-illness of adult atopic dermatitis (AD) from societal perspective Hungary.We conducted a multicentre, cross-sectional questionnaire survey between February 2018 and January 2021. Data collected consecutive AD patients aged ≥ 18 years their physicians at dermatology departments Hungary. We calculated direct indirect costs, including costs treatments, outpatient...
We aimed to investigate individuals' subjective expectations regarding health and happiness alongside their provisions on life circumstances for older ages. A cross-sectional online survey was performed involving a representative sample (N = 1000; mean age 50.9, SD 15.4; female 54.5%) in Hungary. Subjective status (EQ-5D-3L/-5L, GALI, WHO-5), (0–10 VAS), employment status, care time, forms of ages 60, 70, 80, 90 were surveyed. Current EQ-5D-5L 0.869 (SD 0.164) 6.7 2.4). expectancy 80.9...
To compare the measurement properties of EQ-5D-3L and EQ-5D-5L in psoriasis patients Hungary. Outpatient hospitalised with a single clinic completed both versions EQ-5D including EQ VAS Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI). The severity was assessed by Psoriasis Area Severity (PASI). Both for 3L 5L, UK tariffs were applied to derive index scores. 5L compared terms missing values, redistribution properties, ceiling effects, informativity, convergent validity known-groups validity. A total...
Abstract: Introduction: Informal care plays an important role in ageing societies. Aim: To analyse informal use and its determinants among patients with chronic diseases Hungary. Method: Patient level data from previous studies 14 diagnoses were analysed including patients’ EQ-5D-3L health status. Descriptive statistics performed a linear regression model was built to of time. Results: 2047 (female: 58%) mean age 58.9 (SD = 16.3) years index score 0.64 0.33) involved. 27% received care, the...
Background Budget constraints in health care systems have led to the popularity of Cost Effectiveness Thresholds (CET) achieve efficient allocation resources. The capability approach has been hailed for its potentially richer evaluative capabilities compared QALY terms thresholds. Extensive research, however, is still limited.

Population norms are available for several generic health-related quality of life questionnaires, but rarely disease- or specialty-specific questionnaires. The aim our study was to calculate population the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) score..We conducted an online self-completed questionnaire survey on a large sample general Hungarian adult population. Respondents' socio-demographic characteristics and dermatology-related aspects were recorded. A total 2,001 participants completed...
