Journal ArticleDOI
The use of surrogate outcomes in model-based cost-effectiveness analyses: a survey of UK Health Technology Assessment reports.
Rod S Taylor,Julian Elston +1 more
TL;DR: In this survey of UK HTA reports about 10% of the CEMs therein were explicitly based on surrogate outcomes, and the strength of evidence for the surrogate-final outcome relationship, transparency of quantification and exploration of uncertainty of this relationship were found to vary considerably.
Journal ArticleDOI
Meta-analyses of randomized controlled trials show suboptimal validity of surrogate outcomes for overall survival in advanced colorectal cancer
Oriana Ciani,Oriana Ciani,Marc Buyse,Ruth Garside,Jaime Peters,Everardo D. Saad,Ken Stein,Rod S Taylor +7 more
TL;DR: None of the end points in this study were found to achieve the level of evidence that has been set to select high or excellent correlation levels by common surrogate evaluation tools, and larger treatment effects for the surrogates than for OS are found.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reduced dietary salt for the prevention of cardiovascular disease
TL;DR: In this article, the authors assess the long term effects of interventions aimed at reducing dietary salt on mortality and cardiovascular morbidity and investigate whether blood pressure reduction is an explanatory factor in any effect of such dietary interventions on mortality or cardiovascular outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maternal ante‐natal parameters as predictors of persistent postnatal glucose intolerance: a comparative study between Afro‐Caribbeans, Asians and Caucasians
TL;DR: This study aims to measure the prevalence of persistent glucose intolerance at 6–12 weeks postpartum in various ethnic groups to assess the value of targeted post partum screening.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence of systolic inter-arm differences in blood pressure for different primary care populations: systematic review and meta-analysis
TL;DR: Prevalences of IADs rise in relation to underlying cardiovascular comorbidities of the population studied, and are overestimated threefold when sequential measurement is used.
