a

Cohen’s d calculated as mean change in use over time in the SB setting minus mean change in use over time in the CB setting divided by the change in CB standard deviation.

b

Cohen’s d calculated as mean at follow-up minus mean at baseline divided by the group standard deviation at baseline.

c

Due to weighting, the means for the baseline dependent variables differ from Table 1 for the CB group only.
