Data are mean±standard deviation, in millimetres (mm); mJSW: medial joint space width; JSN: joint space narrowing; SD: standard deviation; SRM: standardized response means (mean divided by SD); (#) multivariate (ANCOVA) analysis, adjusting for gender, age and body mass index (BMI) at baseline; (*) indicates statistical significance at p≤0.05.
