ΔMean Mean change between baseline and follow-up; SD standard deviation; SE bootstrapped standard error (with 1000 iterations); ES effect size; SRM standardized response mean; RE relative efficiency; EQ-5D-5L EuroQol 5-dimensional 5-level questionnaire; EQ-5D-CW EQ-5D cross-walk; SF-6D Short-form 6-dimension; GHCr (reversed) general health complaints; EQ-VAS (EuroQol) visual analogue scale
