TI  - Characterising the potential for recall bias in anchor-based MCID calculation of 
      patient-reported outcome measures for chronic rhinosinusitis.

AB  - OBJECTIVE: Anchor-based methods to calculate the minimal clinically important 
      difference (MCID) of a patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) may suffer from 
      recall bias. This has never been investigated for otolaryngic PROMs. We sought to 
      identify evidence of recall bias in calculation of MCIDs of PROMs for patients 
      with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). DESIGN: Retrospective analysis of data from 
      two previous studies calculating the MCID of the 22-item Sinonasal Outcome Test 
      (SNOT-22) and 5-dimensonal EuroQol questionnaire (EQ-5D) in CRS patients. 
      SETTING: Tertiary rhinology clinic. PARTICIPANTS: Adults with CRS. MAIN OUTCOME 
      MEASURES: SNOT-22 score, and EQ-5D visual analog scale scores (EQ-5D VAS) and 
      health utility values (EQ-5D HUV) before and after medical treatment for CRS. 
      After treatment, participants were asked to rate the change in sinonasal symptoms 
      and general health (the anchor question) as "Much worse," "A little worse," 
      "About the same," "A little better" or "Much better." Participants' responses to 
      the anchor question were checked for association with post-treatment and 
      pre-treatment scores using ordinal regression. RESULTS: On univariate 
      association, post-treatment SNOT-22 and EQ-5D scores were associated with 
      respective participants' anchor question responses (P < .001 in all cases). Only 
      pre-treatment SNOT-22 score was associated with anchor question responses 
      (P = .017) on univariate association, in contrast to pre-treatment EQ-5D scores. 
      Pre-treatment EQ-5D scores only associated with anchor question responses when 
      controlling for post-treatment scores. CONCLUSION: The anchor-based MCIDs of the 
      SNOT-22, which reflects disease-specific QOL, and the EQ-5D, which reflects 
      general health-related QOL, appear to be largely free of recall bias.
