Figure 1. Proportion of Episode-free Days during the Treatment Period (indicated in gray) and the Observation Period (indicated in white).

Figure 1

While fluticasone did increase the proportion of episode-free days during the treatment period compared to placebo, this effect was lost during the observation period after treatment was discontinued. The listed p-values are for comparison between the treatment groups during the treatment and observation periods. The vertical bars represent 95% confidence intervals.
