Abbreviations: AL=appetite loss; ALI=Allostatic Load Index; AN=anxiety; CF=cognitive function; DE=depression; EF=emotional function; ES=effect size; FA=fatigue; IN=insomnia; NV=nausea and vomit; PA=pain; PF=physical function; QOL=quality of life; RE=resilience; RF=role function; SF=social function.

Notes: a positive (negative) sign for the ES implies that the T2, T3, or T4 adjusted mean for Major Variables was lower (higher) for IG than CG.
