Abstract

Patients with polycythemia vera (PV) often experience symptoms that adversely affect their quality of life (QoL). The ongoing, prospective, observational REVEAL (Prospective Observational Study of Patients With Polycythemia Vera in US Clinical Practices) study was designed to collect contemporary data regarding burden of disease, clinical management, patient-reported outcomes (PROs), and health care resource utilization from adult patients with PV in the United States. Data on PROs were collected at enrollment using the Myeloproliferative Neoplasm Symptom Assessment Form Total Symptom Score (MPN-SAF TSS; range, 0-100); the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer-Core Quality of Life Questionnaire, version 3.0 (EORTC QLQ-C30; range, 0-100); and the Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire-Specific Health Problem (WPAI-SHP; range, 0%-100%). Among 2309 patients, mean (SD) disease duration was 5.8 (6.1) years and Charlson Comorbidity Index was 3.4 (0.8); 54.0% (1247/2309) were male. Mean (SD) MPN-SAF TSS was 18.8 (15.5). The most common symptoms were fatigue (80.1% [1844/2302]), early satiety (60.9% [1402/2302]), and inactivity (57.6% [1324/2302]). The most common severe symptoms were fatigue (16.8% [387/2302]), itching (13.4% [308/2302]), and inactivity (11.8% [271/2302]). The mean (SD) EORTC QLQ-C30 global health status/QoL score was 73.1 (23.2): mean functional subscale scores ranged from 80.5 (23.9) for cognitive functioning to 85.7 (24.6) for social functioning. The mean WPAI-SHP activity impairment score was 19.7% (n = 2300). Employed patients had mean WPAI-SHP scores for absenteeism, presenteeism, and overall work impairment of 3.2% (n = 810), 12.1% (n = 807), and 13.4% (n = 802), respectively. These data confirm that many patients with PV experience symptoms, QoL impairments, and work productivity impairments that negatively affect their lives. Longitudinal data from REVEAL will be important for evaluating how PROs change over time in these patients.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 190. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 03 May 2023.
All research outputs
#212,912
of 25,655,374 outputs
Outputs from Clinical Lymphoma, Myeloma & Leukemia
#6
of 2,071 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#4,626
of 345,258 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Clinical Lymphoma, Myeloma & Leukemia
#1
of 34 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,655,374 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 99th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,071 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.8. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 99% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 345,258 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 98% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 34 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 97% of its contemporaries.
