The possible existence of intermediate-range forces (such as the ``fifth force'') in astrophysical systems introduces a seeming ambiguity since those forces may be treated by their field properties as long-range forces, or thermodynamically as short-range forces. Assuming that the intermediate force can be treated as a perturbation to a bound system, it is shown by order-of-magnitude analysis and by solutions of a modified Lane-Emden equation, that both methods yield identical results. This conclusion is of some interest since the thermodynamically modified Lane-Emden equation here and its field modified counterpart in a previous paper are quite different.
