  1. Data are means (SD). Score scale range (0-5). A lower score indicate an improvement. Difference in the change (from baseline to 6 months) of each variable between the two groups, when adjusted for baseline values. §Significance of the difference between groups. Significant (P < 0.05) difference from baseline to 6 months within the group.
