ORIGINAL ARTICLES Minimal important change (MIC) based on a predictive modeling approach was more precise than MIC based on ROC analysis

TL;DR: A new method to estimate a "minimal important change" of health-related quality of life (HRQOL) scales, based on predictive modeling, yields the same value as the ROC-based MIC but with significantly greater precision.
