Table I. Socio-demographic and clinical characteristics of questionnaire respondents and normative population.
Figure 2. HRQoL of thyroid cancer survivors compared to normative population. (a) Mean EORTC-QLQ-C30 functioning subscale scores (0–100) of survivors in comparison with a Dutch normative population. A higher score means better functioning. An asterisk above the bar indicates a group difference (ANCOVA, p < 0.05, adjusted for comorbidity). (b) Mean EORTC-QLQ-C30 symptom subscale scores (0–100) of survivors in comparison with a Dutch normative population. A higher score indicates more symptoms. An asterisk above the bars indicates a group difference (ANCOVA, p < 0.05, adjusted for comorbidity).
