Treatment | Baseline | After 10 Treatments vs. Baseline | p | After 6 Months vs. Baseline | p |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
U | 63.3 (60–70) | 62.9 (58.8–68.7) | 0.01 | 62.5 (58–72.6) | 0.1 |
RF | 69.75 (64–79.2) | 67.6 (63.5–78) | 0.0035 | 67.75 (63.8–77) | 0.04 |
RF/U | 68 (64.5–82.8) | 67.75 (64.3–81.5) | 0.009 | 68.1 (62.5–80) | 0.3 |
Abbreviations: Destination U, group treated with ultrasound; RF, group treated using radiofrequency device. All continuous variables are expressed as a median and interquartile range [Q1–Q3] as not normally distributed. The Shapiro–Wilk test was used to check if a continuous variable follows a normal distribution. Differences were statistically significant at p < 0.05.
