Day 10 in situ efficacy results

In situ efficacy results—treatment comparison of profilometry levels (μm) general linear mixed model evaluable participants (N = 34)
Visit/treatment Original scale in μm estimated median (SE)a 95 % Confidence interval of the estimated mean Natural log scale mean (SE) % Reduction vs. SMFP/arginine (p value)b
10 days post baseline (participant variance = 0.0264, residual variance = 0.7869)
 Stabilized SnF2 0.0747 (0.008) (0.060, 0.093) −2.5946 (0.1116) 93.9 % (p < 0.0001)
 SMFP/1.5 % arginine 1.2255 (0.138) (0.980, 1.532) 0.2033 (0.1125)

aEstimated medians in micrometer were obtained by using the exponential function on the means from the natural logarithm scale (e mean)

bPercent reduction was calculated using back-transformed means as 100 % (SMFP/1.5 % arginine − Stabilized SnF2) / SMFP/1.5 % arginine. Two-sided p values for testing the mean difference between treatments were provided
