Comparative quality of life study between endoscopic sphincterotomy and surgical choledochotomy

Figure 1 Total and subscale gastrointestinal quality of life index scores for choledocholithiasis patients. A: The total gastrointestinal quality of life index (GIQLI) score at baseline, and two weeks and six weeks post-treatment; B: Subscale scores for Self-reported symptom domain; C: Physical function domain; D: Mental/emotional domain; E: Social function domain; F: Special disease/condition domain in choledocholithiasis patients scheduled for domain scores at baseline (EST) or open choledochotomy (OCT) at baseline, and at two weeks and six weeks following treatment.

Figure 2 Total and subscale gastrointestinal quality of life index score improvements. A: Improvements from the baseline in the total gastrointestinal quality of life index (GIQLI) score; B: Improvements from the baseline in the subscale scores for Self-reported symptom domain; C: Physical function domain; D: Mental/emotional domain; E: Social function domain; F: Special disease/condition domain in choledocholithiasis patients scheduled for EST or OCT at two and six weeks post-treatment.
