PTT endpoints were analysed on the log scale, so results are presented as geometric means with %CVs for individual treatment results, and back‐transformed LS mean ratios and 95% CIs for treatment comparisons. CI, confidence interval; CV, coefficient of variation; GM, geometric mean; LS mean, least squares mean; PDT, pain detection threshold; PTT, pain tolerance threshold; SD, standard deviation; UVB, ultraviolet B

Bold text indicates that the effect over placebo met the predefined decision criterion
