BPI-SF pain metrics for (a,c,e) intraosseous and (b,d,f) extraosseous groups. Worst pain, pain severity index, and pain interference indexes were all significantly improved by day 14 after treatment for the intraosseous group but not for the extraosseous group. Horizontal lines show the mean ± SD scores, and the discrete marker shapes show individual scores for each patient. The P values have been corrected for multiple comparisons: P >1* indicates that the uncorrected P value was >0.20. BPI-SF = Brief Pain Inventory short form.
