Mediation models (IIQ-7). The change of mental health mediated the change of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) severity and the change of health-related quality of life (HRQOL) as measured by as measured by the condition-specific HRQOL measure (IIQ-7). The direct effects of LUTS severity on LUTS-specific HRQOL were statistically significant (through depression β = 0.189; through anxiety β = 0.198; through stress β = 0.196; P < 0.05) but less than the total effect (β = 0.238). *P < 0.05 β: the regression parameter estimate. The models were adjusted for socio-demographic factors
