Adjusted ORs and 95% CIs for LOC in predicting compliance with symptom treatment and QOL

Predictor: LOC
(LOC=1, concordance=0)		 Outcome Variable: Compliance
(acceptable/need improvement=1, perfect=0)		 Outcome Variable: QOL
(poor=1, good=0)
LOC – bother due to cancer 1.13 (0.93, 1.38) 1.23 (0.98, 1.55)
LOC – bother due to cancer treatment 1.12 (0.91, 1.38) 1.54 (1.34, 1.78)*
LOC – bother due to side effects 1.17 (0.97, 1.41) 1.80 (1.47, 2.22)*
LOC – bother due to comorbidities 1.25 (0.98, 1.60) 1.50 (1.20, 1.90)*

Adjusting variables included in the multivariable logistic models for treatment compliance and QOL: age, race/ethnicity, gender; disease site, disease status, disease stage, ECOG Performance Status, current therapy.

OR: odds ratio; CI – Confidence interval; QOL – Quality of Life; LOC – Lack of Concordance
