For assessing change over time, nutritional status GEE models (WtZ, HtZ and BMIZ) controlled for age, sex and mode of diagnosis; for CFQ dimensions, GEE models controlled for age, sex, mode of diagnosis and CFQ version

**

Overall mean values represent the average of means from each subject

Nutritional status indicators are defined as follows: short stature is height <5th percentile; underweight is BMI <10th percentile; below BMI goal is BMI <50th percentile.
