SRs for each response group, as categorized by the indicated Miller-Payne criteria, were analyzed for statistical differences over time using a repeated-measures ANOVA. Responders and nonresponders were compared to each other at each time interval to test for statistically significant differences following a test for normality (Shapiro-Wilk Test). Statistically significant, *P < .05; very statistically significant, **P < .001.
