The lung recipients reported an overall low perceived threat of the risk of graft rejection with no gender differences. Intrusive anxiety explained 24.7% of the variance in the PGWB-sum (p ≤ 0.001) and makes a statistically significant (β = -497; p ≤ 0.001) unique contribution to the overall psychological general well-being (95%CI 3.004-1.515).
