^† r = 0: no correlation, r = + 1/(−1): perfect positive/negative correlation.

*Significant correlation, P < 0.001.

PCS: physical component summary score, PF: physical function, RP: role-physical, BP: bodily pain, GH: general health, MCS: mental component summary score, VT: vitality, SF: social function, RE: role-emotional, and MH: mental health.
