Note: CHIP-AE = Child Health and Illness Profile-Adolescent Edition

The standard reference population mean on the CHIP-AE is 20, with a standard deviation of 5. Higher score indicates better health

T test was used to compare siblings and diagnosis groups and calculate the p-values:

*

=p-value < 0.05;

**

=p-value < 0.01

Cohen's d effect size was calculated comparing survivors to siblings and each diagnostic group with siblings, adjusting for sex and diagnostic group
