  1. Δ: T2-T1 scores; β*: adjusted regression coefficient in the linear mixed model; positive value in the LSS of EQ-5D-Y model, indicating the comorbid status (vs no–no at T1 &T2) was associated with increased LSS (worsen health states), increased VAS of EQ-5D-Y and increased PedsQL scores indicated improved health
  2. VAS Visual Analogue Scale, LSS Level Sum Score, A higher LSS indicated a worse health state
