*It should be noted that 72 patients have no 12- to 36-month follow-up data available. These patients also appear to differ significantly from those with follow-up data in baseline characteristics in that they had generally less severe symptoms. It is thus important to focus on the multiple imputation results that include values for all patients, particularly for this outcome.
