Note: Dutch GI Symptom tracker, gastrointestinal symptom tracker. Scores are standardized on a 0-to-100 scale; higher scores indicate more symptoms/problems over the past week.
CFQ-R, Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire, revised. Scores are standardized on a 0-to-100 scale; higher scores indicate less symptoms/problems over the past week.
As hypothesized, GI symptoms were significantly, positively associated with elevated symptoms of anxiety, depression and worse HRQoL, see Table 4. More GI ‘Eating Challenges’ were significantly associated (p <0.001) with elevated symptoms of anxiety and worse ‘Role Functioning’ and ‘Digestive Symptoms’. More GI ‘Stools’ were significantly associated with elevated symptoms of anxiety and depression and worse ’Physical Functioning’, ‘Social Functioning’, ‘Role Functioning’ and ‘Digestive Symptoms’. More GI ‘Adherence Challenges’ were significantly associated with worse ‘Role Functioning’ and ‘Vitality’. GI ‘Abdominal Symptoms’ were not significantly associated.
