Range of QUALITY OF LIFE scores for diabetic patients varied from 46.20 (±12.94) for general health perceptions to 64.13 (±26.61) for physical function. Range of QUALITY OF LIFE scores for TB patients varied from 16.85 (±32.58) for role limitations due to physical problems to 59.18 (±22.55) for social function.
