Criteria for performance in the questionnaires: 0–49% (poor), 50–64% (average), 65–74% (good), ≥75% (excellent). NSKQ scores are presented as mean ± SD. HAQ scores are presented as median (IQR) * p-values were determined using a one-sample t-test for NSKQ results and one-sample Wilcoxon signed-rank tests for HAQ results. ^a Score compared to an “average” threshold of 50% ^b Score compared to an “excellent” threshold of 75%.
