Health-related quality of life in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus: a Spanish study based on patient reports
Introduction and objectives ::: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a disease that significantly affects the quality of life and welfare of patients. SLE patients can be classified into multimorbidity levels using Clinical Risk Groups (CRGs) to help to incorporate predictive models of health needs. The goal of this study was to correlate CRGs with health-related quality of life (HR-QoL) and costs in SLE patients.
Abstract In order to characterize the most superadditive behavior of a risk measure, the notion of extreme-aggregation risk measures was introduced in the literature. In this short note, explicit forms of the extreme-aggregation measures induced by rank-dependent expected utility (RDEU) functionals and by RDEU-based shortfall risk measures are derived. The main results generalize those known in the literature.
