1Values within a row with different superscript letters are significantly different, P < 0.05. All results are presented as geometric mean and 95% CI.
2End values are baseline- adjusted according to the method of Kenward and Roger.
3Mixed effects model, controlling for treatment and period effect, adjusted for multiple comparisons using Tukey-Kramer.
4Analysis performed after log-transformation. Results have been transformed back into original units and presented as geometric mean and 95% CI.
