  1. Data are presented as mean (95% CI) at baseline, and least-squares mean (95% CI) at 15 min, 30 min, 45 min, 60 min, 75 min, 90 min, 105 min, and 120 min, respectively
  2. Analysis was conducted using a mixed model for repeated measures, adjusting for baseline values
  3. *p Value for time effect—trend over time in all arms
  4. p Value for treatment × time interaction—evaluates if changes in one arm are different from the changes in the other arms
  5. p Value for comparison between arms at each moment
