Table accounting for missing data throughout the study period. Three months of baseline data (month 0, 1, 2) is followed by nine months of post-treatment data (month 3–11), when patients received monthly erenumab injections. The total number of patients included in the dataset for each month is shown at the top. This is broken down into the number of patients who failed to submit a questionnaire for each given month but remained in the analysis (‘data not submitted’), and cumulative discontinuation rates throughout the study period for various reasons (ineffectiveness, side effects, other (specifically, pregnancy). The final column shows the cumulative number of patients that were continuing to receive erenumab but had not completed sufficient months of treatment to provide data beyond a certain timepoint
