AB  - PURPOSE: The evidence on the responsiveness of the Short Form-12 Health Survey 
      version 2 (SF-12v2) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is limited. 
      The aim of this study was to examine both the internal and external 
      responsiveness of the SF-12 measures in Chinese patients with T2DM. METHODS: A 
      prospective longitudinal observational study was conducted on 1443 T2DM patients 
      managed in public primary care clinics between 2012 and 2013. These patients were 
      surveyed at baseline and at 12 months using SF-12v2. The internal responsiveness 
      was evaluated by linear mixed effect models. Meanwhile, the external 
      responsiveness was tested by multiple linear regression models and receiver 
      operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. RESULTS: The internal 
      responsiveness of the SF-12v2 to detect negative change was satisfactory among 
      T2DM patients in worsened group, but only the general health domain of SF-12v2 
      could detect positive change among T2DM patients with improved group. For 
      external responsiveness, the SF-12v2 detected a significant 
      difference-in-difference between patients with worsened and stable/improved 
      group, but not between patients with stable and improved group. The areas under 
      the ROC curve for all domains and summary scales of the SF-12v2 were not 
      statistically different from 0.7. CONCLUSION: This study showed that the 
      responsiveness of SF-12v2 might not achieve the standard. Despite the wide use of 
      the SF-12v2, we would like to urge that both clinicians and researchers should 
      use it with caution in longitudinal study.
