Patient f	3.94	5.6	6.96	7.52	7.14
Patient g	3.24	4.94	5.86	7.06	6.52
Patient h	4.24	6.46	6.94	7.7	7.54
Patient i	3.68	5.96	7.02	8.02	7.42
Patient j	3.9	5.84	7.46	8.08	7.64
Patient k	5.06	6.3	7.48	8.46	7.9
Patient l	3.38	5.54	6.86	7.64	7.24
Patient m	3.58	5.56	6.76	7.3	6.98
Patient n	4.12	5.9	6.28	7.48	7.06
Patient o	4.18	5.56	6.56	7.74	7.3

The efficacy scores of patients a–o at each time point were calculated by using equation (5) in the study.
