Minimally important differences were estimated for six Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System-Cancer scales in advanced-stage cancer patients

TLDR
This study is the first to address minimally important differences (MIDs) for PROMIS measures in advanced-stage cancer patients by combining anchor- and distribution-based methods and focusing on item response theory-based MIDs estimated on a T-score scale.

A systematic review of the impact of routine collection of patient reported outcome measures on patients, providers and health organisations in an oncologic setting

TL;DR: Despite the existence of significant gaps in the evidence-base, there is growing evidence in support of routine PRO collection in enabling better and patient-centred care in cancer settings.

Clinical validity of PROMIS Depression, Anxiety, and Anger across diverse clinical samples

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that the PROMIS negative affect scores are sensitive to change in intervention studies in which negative affect is expected to change and this results inform the estimation of meaningful change and enable comparative effectiveness research.

Clinical importance of changes in chronic pain intensity measured on an 11-point numerical pain rating scale

TL;DR: Using a standard outcome across chronic pain studies would greatly enhance the comparability, validity, and clinical applicability of these studies, and the application of these results to future studies may provide a standard definition of clinically important improvement in clinical trials of chronic pain therapies.

Measurement of health status: Ascertaining the minimal clinically important difference

TL;DR: An approach to elucidating the significance of changes in score in quality of life instruments by comparing them to global ratings of change is developed, and a plausible range within which the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) falls is established.
