For continuous variables mean (SD)/median (Min; Max)/(Bootstrapped (10,000 replicates) 95% CI for mean)/P is presented.

For comparison within groups the Wilcoxon signed rank test was used.

Patients 01–018, 01–031, 01–032, 01–037, and 02–005 are deleted from the MARD and the MAD week analyses because of change of censor during the study.

MAD, mean absolute difference; MARD, mean absolute relative difference.
