Investigating Fatigue and Its Relationship to Quality of Life and Pruritus in Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma

Figure 1

Comparison of early stage and advanced stage CTCL. Advanced disease stage was associated with significantly more severe fatigue and a poorer quality of life (QoL). (a) Fatigue based on FACIT-Fatigue subscale (FS) value. (b) Quality of life assessed by FACT-G questionnaire. (c) Pruritus was measured by the peak pruritus numerical rating scale (NRS). Data from 38 patients were analyzed. Statistical differences between the groups were analyzed with the Mann–Whitney (U). Note that lower fatigue scores indicate more severe fatigue.  < 0.05,  < 0.001, and ns = not significant.
