Severity | UK-based preference weights (95 % CI) | Canadian-based preference weights (95 % CI) | |
---|---|---|---|
Persons with AD | Mild (n = 173) | 0.85 (0.85,0.88)a | 0.84 (0.84,0.84)a |
Moderate (n = 40) | 0.81 (0.73,0.88)b | 0.82 (0.74,0.84)b | |
Caregivers | Mild (n = 175) | 0.81 (0.80,0.85)c | 0.83 (0.83,0.83)c |
Moderate (n = 41) | 0.80 (0.80,0.80)d | 0.83 (0.80,0.84)d |
Note. AD Alzheimer’s disease, CI confidence interval, UK United Kingdom, Health utility scores were not calculated for three persons with AD who did not answer all of the EQ-5D-3L questions
a p = 0.59 for median difference in persons with AD within mild stratum
b p = 0.98 for median difference in persons with AD within moderate stratum
c p < 0.0001 for median difference in caregivers within mild stratum
d p = 0.009 for median difference in caregivers within moderate stratum
