Lower scores indicate less impairment and higher scores more impairment in health-related quality of life (HRQoL) for the EQ-5D subscales of mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. For EQ-VAS, higher values indicate improved self-rated health and lower values indicate worse self-rated health.
EQ-VAS, EuroQol’s visual analogue scale; TTFields, tumor treating fields.
