Adjusted estimated child Quality Of Life scores by parent and/or child report of symptom severity for weakness (panel A), waking up too early (panel B), falling asleep during the day (panel C) and decreased alertness (panel D). Values reported are mean child Quality of Life scores and 95% confidence intervals after adjusting for age, sex, mGFR stage, income, percentage of life with CKD, BMI percentile, hypertension and anemia. A report of “moderate” or “severe” weakness was associated with lower quality of life (mean of 63.0 vs. 74.8 [P<0.001] and 72.1 [P=0.01] when “no” symptoms or “mild” symptoms were reported). None of the other symptoms were associated with the childrens’ overall PedsQL scores.
