We evaluated associations of elevated symptoms of anxiety (HADS-A) and depression (HADS-D), fatigue, physical function (timed-walk and nine-hole peg test), cognitive function and comorbidity count with physical (PCS-36) and mental (MCS-36) HRQoL using multivariable linear models—estimating between-person and within-person effects. …”
