Table 7.
Comparison of curative effect in the three groups after normal treatment (Kruskal–Wallis H test and Nemenyi test).
| Complete recovery (n, %) | Improvement (n, %) | Nonhealing and sequelae (n, %) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| MP group | 10/18, 55.6% | 5/18, 27.8% | 3/18, 16.7% |
| SP group | 3/17, 17.6% | 4/17, 23.5% | 10/17, 58.9% |
| DE group | 1/5, 20.0% | 0/5, 0.0% | 4/5, 80.0% |
| H c value | 9.218 | ||
| P value | 0.006 | ||
Note: Nemenyi test: MP group vs. SP group: χ2 = 7.10, P=0.03; MP group vs. DE group: χ2 = 4.98, P=0.08; for SP group vs. DE group: χ2 = 0.20, P=0.91.
