Figure 2

Boxplots display donor scores for all the scales in the SF-36 profile. Higher scores indicate better health states. All SF-36 scales are standardized to have a mean of 50 and standard deviation of 10 in the US general population. A dotted line indicates the population mean on the y-axis. Boxes extend from the 25th to 75th percentiles, whiskers (vertical lines) extend from the 1st to the 99th percentiles. Abbreviations: physical component summary score (PCS), mental component summary score (MCS), physical health (PH), impact of physical health on role functioning at home and at work (RP), bodily pain (BP), vitality (VT), general health perceptions (GH), social functioning (SF), impact of mental health on role functioning (RE), and mental health (MH).
