This table shows the relevant activity outcomes, demonstrating a significant increase from time point 1 to time point 2 for the total cohort. Furthermore, this difference was analyzed in the subgroups. TP: time point. EQ5D-3L: European quality of life 5 dimension 3 levels. SD: standard deviation. ∗Indicates statistically significant difference between time point 1 and time point 2 for each group.
