a

The YQOL-R raw score is transformed to a 0–100 point scale to assist in result interpretation; higher scores indicate improvement in QOL.

b

Baseline is based on the baseline of the antecedent 4 week study.

c

Poor=participants with YQOL-R scores ≤(mean−1 SD).

d

Others=participants with YQOL-R scores >(mean−1 SD).

e

Study completers=participants who completed the current study.

f

Study noncompleters=participants who did not complete the current study.

g

p≤0.001 based on a two sided one sample t test.
