    Summary
    At 36 months, less deterioration in EQ-5D utility index score was seen in the liraglutide group (-0.058) than in the placebo group (-0.082; estimated treatment difference [ETD] 0.023, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.004;0.043; P = 0.020).

    The EQ-5D was administered every 12 months in a subset of patients from Canada, Denmark, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, the United Kingdom and the United States.
    Summary · context
    We compared changes in utility index scores and visual analogue scale (VAS) scores from baseline to 36 months in participants treated with liraglutide and placebo.

    Summary
    A smaller decrease in EQ-5D VAS score was also demonstrated in the liraglutide group (-3.51) vs. the placebo group (-5.45; ETD 1.94, 95% CI 0.32;3.57; P = 0.019).

  3. 03HumanRandomized controlled trialEfficacy outcome

    In people with type 2 diabetes in the LEADER trial, the benefit of liraglutide over placebo was driven primarily by shifts in the mobility and self-care domains.

    In plain wordsIn people with type 2 diabetes, liraglutide's benefit over placebo in self-rated health came mainly from better mobility.
