Table 5 Comparison of quality of life, mean ± SD

Group	Stoma Quality of Life Scale score
Group	1-day intervention	3-day intervention	5-day intervention	7-day intervention
Control group (n = 50)	58.73 ± 3.66	61.29 ± 3.63	66.81 ± 3.24	70.33 ± 3.57
Observation group (n = 50)	60.25 ± 3.47^a	64.36 ± 4.06^a	67.06 ± 3.41^a	75.19 ± 3.62^a
Between groups	F = 61.027; P < 0.001
Time	F = 231.892; P < 0.001
Between groups·time¹	F = 7.474; P < 0.001

¹This table compares the continuous variable (Stoma Quality of Life Scale score) of the two groups at different intervention time points by repeated-measures ANOVA. Statistically significant differences are observed in Stoma Quality of Life Scale score between groups, across time points, and in the group-time interaction (all P < 0.001).
