However, this was only statistically significant in a single proxy-report measure (DEMQOL-Proxy) and approached significance ( p = 0.06) in a single self-report measure (DEMQOL).

The generic proxy measure (EQ-5D) was correlated statistically significantly univariately with all the self- and proxy-reported instruments (DEMQOL, EQ-5D (self), CASP-19 (self), DEMQOL-Proxy), but when correction for multiple comparison was applied the association with CASP-19 (self) and DEMQOL-Proxy did not reach statistical significance.
