| For the HRQL subscales (concern, activities, energy/mood, control, self-conscious, and sexual function), create summed scores of the items listed below for each individual subscale. To calculate the HRQL total score, sum the value of each individual subscale (do not sum individual items). Use the formula below the table to transform all values. Higher scores will be indicative of better HRQL (high = good). | |||

| Missing Items | |||
| For the subscale analyses, if < 50% of the scale items are missing, the scale should be retained with the mean scale score of the items present used to impute a score for the missing items. If ≥ 50% of the items are missing, no scale score should be calculated, the subscale score should be considered missing. If a subscale score is missing, the HRQL total cannot be calculated. | |||
