All models were controlled for the following covariates: age, marital status (ref :not married), education, annual household income, rurality, and time since treatment. Significant associations (p ≤0.05) are in bold. Non-significant associations (p<0.10) are italicized

Range values social well-being and functional well-being are 0–28 with higher scores indicating better quality of life. [34, 35]

The score for both mental and physical health range from 0 to 100 with a higher score also indicating better QOL. [36]
