The cost of the healthcare delivery HR was 0.65 USD per visit for children treated by nurses at HCs and only 0.18 USD for children treated by CHWs at HPs. To obtain these values, we have taken into account that visits lasted on average 20 min and that the monthly salaries of nurses ...
The FINE-CKD model validated to estimate the cost-effectiveness of finerenone uses the Markov model to simulate the disease pathway of patients over a lifetime horizon. The model was adapted to reflect the Japanese payer perspective and estimated incremental costs, utilities, and incremental cost-...
Prehabilitation is still a relatively new care concept. It aims at enhancing patients’ functional capacity and overall health status through behaviour change [1] to enable them to withstand a forthcoming stressor [2]. In the surgical context, prehabilitation complements the concept of ‘enhanced reco...
Hazard ratios (HR) of mortality rates in SVR vs. no SVR were applied to determine the SVR state mortality rates [21]. For patients with F0-F1 (no fibrosis and mild fibrosis) and patients without HCV infection, we assumed the same utility. Liver-related healthcare costs were derived from ...
To assess the cost-effectiveness of using cheaper-but-noisier outcome measures, such as a short questionnaire, for large simple clinical trials. To detect associations reliably, trials must avoid bias and random error. To reduce random error, we can incr
Additionally, we used the HR for the sustained eGFR decrease < 15 mL/min/1.73 m2 to adjust for the effect of finerenone on progression to CKD 5. As the median follow-up duration in the FIDELIO-DKD trial was 2.6 years, HRs to account for the longer-term risk of a CV event (...

relative to the chemotherapy group did not meet the PH assumption, the HR values of both relative to the chemotherapy group were not used for the calculation of this study, but were extrapolated by fitting the parameters to their respective IPDs, which may have biased the results to some ...
Nucleic acid test (NAT) could effectively control the spread of COVID-19 caused by large-scale sports competitions. However, quantitative analysis on the appropriate frequency of NAT is scarce, and the cost-effectiveness and necessity of high-frequency N
