Figure 2. Number of infections and CVID QoL, EF, RF, GSS scores.
Patients were divided according to the number of infections within 3
months (A ) and within 12 months (B ). P values of CVID
QoL global, EF, RF scores within 3 months between 0-1 infection and
>1 infection were 0.038, 0.045, 0.028 respectively. P
values of CVID QoL global, EF, RF scores within 12 months between 0-2
infections, 3-6 infections and >6 infections were
p>0.05.
Abbreviations: CVID, common variable immune deficiency; EF, emotional
functioning; RF, relational functioning; GSS, gastrointestinal and skin
