What was measured
Multidimensional Fatigue Symptom Inventory-Short Form (MFSI-SF) general subscale is a six-item subscale to measure the subjective experience of fatigue. The items include feeling "pooped, worn out, fatigued, sluggish, run down and tired". Answers are on a 5-point scale, ranging from 0 (not at all) to 4 (extremely). The subscale scores were the sum of all six items. The scores were converted to a 100-point scale, with higher numbers indicating less fatigue. Change from baseline to week 4 was calculated by subtracting the baseline scores from the scores at week 4.
Analysis population: Includes all participants who completed both baseline and week 4 assessments.
