Background: Characteristics of Osteoarthritis

Outcomes and Applicability: Examples. Trials of biologics for rheumatoid arthritis that used radiographic progression rather than symptom evaluations as an outcome measure. Trials comparing cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors and nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs that used endoscopy-evaluated ulceration rather than symptomatic ulcers as an outcome measure.

Outcomes and Applicability: Examples

Effects of Composite End Points. Why might the use of a composite end point (e.g., death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, ventricular fibrillation, stroke, or stable anginal pain) negatively affect applicability? A. Stroke is a surrogate end point. B. It is often difficult to determine the effect of an intervention on each component of the composite end point. C. Composite end points do not affect applicability.
