a

Primary end point. The confidence interval was contained between the prespecified margins of equivalence (−15% to 15%). All confidence intervals were contained between the prespecified margins defining equivalence for the primary end point.

b

Adjusted for stratification factors. The effect of the stratification factors was evaluated using an adapted logistic model comprising a combination of logistic, binomial, and log-binomial regression (referred to as adapted logistic regression).
