Figure 1

Predicted health-related quality of life of the functional scales of breast cancer survivors, compared with outcomes of a young Dutch reference population, stratified for age. Higher scores indicate better health-related quality of life. The lines represent outcomes in women treated without axillary clearance, without adjuvant systemic therapy, without regional radiotherapy, and with few co-morbidities present: (A) global health status, (B) role functioning, (C) emotional functioning, (D) cognitive functioning, and (E) sexual functioning. The outcomes of the young survivors are compared with the reference population at 3 years after completion of radiotherapy (P-value).
