EQ-5D-5L-based quality of life normative data for patients with self-reported diabetes in Poland.
<h4>Introduction</h4>The new, five-level EQ-5D generic questionnaire (EQ-5D-5L) has never been used among diabetes patients in Poland.<h4>Objectives</h4>To develop health-related quality of life (HRQoL) norms for patients with self-reported diabetes, based on a large represen...

The multivariate analysis showed that the factors independently improving the HRQoL in the general population were secondary or higher education, and factors reducing HRQoL were female sex, belonging to an older age group, being treated because of diabetes with insulin, other drugs or combination treatment.
