  1. a Subtracted the follow-up data from baseline data and sharing with each n. Negative values represented a worsened effect, whereas positive values represented an improved effect
  2. b Mean ± SD, statistically significant as compared with baseline at P < 0.01 (paired t-test)
  3. c Median ± IQR, statistically significant as compared with baseline at P < 0.01 (Wilcoxon signed-rank test)
