Design and analysis of quality of life studies in clinical trials (2nd edn)

摘要

This book discusses a variety of issues in the design and analysis of longitudinal studies of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in clinical trials. The discussion is focused on practical considerations, with six concrete examples to illustrate the issues and just enough formulas to describe the methods. There are many books on clinical trials and HRQoL studies. However, this book offers unique perspectives and insights that reflect decades of hands-on experience with HRQoL trials and that will certainly benefit researchers in this area.
