  1. Note: MID-1 corresponds to the score for the PASI 25–49 group; MID-2 corresponds to the score for the PASI50-74; for MID-3 and MID-4, reliability estimates for computing SEM were obtained from the data in this study for the DLQI and from estimates found in the literature for the SF-36 and EQ-5D.
  2. 1MID estimates are not provided for the SF-36 Physical Function domain since there were not significant differences among responder groups.
