Statistical analysis title |
Main variable for efficacy (VAS for pain at 12m) | ||||||||||||
Statistical analysis description |
Efficacy analysis was performed by intention to treat, using the FAS analysis set. In case of missing values (missings), these were replaced by the last available value (Last Observation Carried Forward or LOCF), even if this was the baseline. In this case, as well as in the case of important protocol violations, the convenience of conducting sensitivity analysis without imputation of missing data, or excluding said violations, was assessed.

Notes [1] - Greater percentage changes were observed in the BM-MSC group than in the group of rhb, but were not statistically significant, which could be attributed to the low sample size, to the dispersion of results obtained or to the high number of missing data. For changes in the VAS for pain at 12 m, the adjusted mean estimates (least-squares) showed a slightly greater percentage reduction in the BM-MSC group (-67.46) than in the rhb group (-44.33) (not statistically significant) |

Limitations and caveats |
|||
Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data. | |||
Limited sample size. Premature study discontinuations were significantly more frequent in the rehabilitation group than in the experimental group (7/10 vs 1/10 patients respectively, p = 0.022), most of them due to therapeutic ineffectiveness. |
