Meta-Analysis
Is the EQ-5D-5L a valid, reliable, and responsive instrument for assessing patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus?
The EQ-5D-5L is a valid and reliable tool for assessing health-related quality of life in patients with type 2 diabetes, though ceiling effects are present.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Supports EQ-5D-5L use for HRQoL assessment in T2DM; confirms psychometric properties across studies.
OBJECTIVE: This study systematically reviews the validity, reliability, and responsiveness of the EQ-5D-5 L in studies of T2DM. METHODS: Relevant articles were retrieved by searching four databases, namely, the Web of Science, Scopus, PubMed, and Cochrane Library up to November 2020 with English language. All stages of the review conducted by two authors and disagreements were solved by consultation with a third reviewer. CONCLUSION: Findings demonstrated validity, reliability of the EQ-5D-5 L in T2DM and the existence of ceiling effects. However, the assessment of responsiveness and sensitivity needs further observations.

Afshari et al. (2022) conducted a meta-analysis in Type 2 diabetes mellitus. EQ-5D-5L was evaluated on Validity, reliability, and responsiveness of the EQ-5D-5L (p== 0.0001). The EQ-5D-5L demonstrated validity and reliability in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, alongside the existence of ceiling effects (p=0.0001).
