a

Differences for categorical variables are tested with a 2-sided Pearson χ2 test; difference in mean age is tested using a 2-sided t test.

b

Means for FACT-O-TOI and subdomains are adjusted for age, stage, grade, performance status, residual disease, and treatment. Higher scores reflect better quality of life. Differences are tested with a 2-sided F test.

c

Mean scores are adjusted for age, stage, grade, performance status, residual disease, and treatment. Higher scores reflect less abdominal discomfort. Differences are tested with a 2-sided F test.
