All partial aspects except abdominal symptoms like fatigue (r = −0,294; p value: 0,02), emotional function (r = − 0,27; p value: 0,03), worries (r = − 0,42; p value: < 0,001), activity (r = − 0,256; p value: 0,042) and systemic symptoms (− 0,358; p value: 0,003) showed a significant correlation with organ failure score
