  1. Effect size conveys the estimated magnitude in differences in two measures of scores. An effect size ≥0.50 indicates a statistically meaningful change in mean scores and is indicated in bold font in the table15.
  2. aEffect Size1 is the effect size of the change in mean mental component summary scores from the baseline visit to the given visit.
  3. bEffect size2 is the effect size of the change in mean mental component summary scores from the previous visit to the given visit, e.g. effect size2 for the 4-month visit is the effect size of the changes in mean mental component summary scores from the 2-month visit to the 4-month visit.
