Chronic stable angina is associated with lower health-related quality of life: evidence from Chinese patients.

<h4>Objectives</h4>To compare health-related quality of life (HRQoL) between patients with stable angina and the general population in China and to examine factors associated with HRQoL among patients with stable angina.<h4>Methods</h4>A cross-sectional HRQoL survey of stable...

The differences remained (-0.05 for EQ-5D, -9.27 for EQ-VAS and -0.13 for SF-6D) after controlling for socio-economic characteristics.
