Abbreviation: IOC, Impact of Cancer.
Demographic variables are from the 2005 survey.
Clinical variables are from the 2005 survey (years since diagnosis, comorbidity, lymphoma symptom score, and systemic treatment status) and the follow-up 2010 survey (systemic treatment status and recurrence in last 5 years).
Participants who reported having a recurrence of their lymphoma within the last 5 years or who have never been in remission.
Mutually exclusive categories; participants reported receiving systemic treatment (ie, chemotherapy, biologic therapy such as rituximab, transplantation) at initial and/or follow-up survey.
Self-Administered Comorbidity Questionnaire; possible score range, 0 to 42.
Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy–Lymphoma module; 15 items, possible score range, 0 to 60. Lower scores indicate greater symptoms.
Psychosocial variables are from the 2005 survey except for change variables.
Medical Outcomes Study Social Support total score; possible score range, 0 to 100; higher scores indicate higher support.
