Population Description
Explanation of how the number of participants for analysis was determined. Includes whether analysis was per protocol, intention to treat, or another method. Also provides relevant details such as imputation technique, as appropriate.
Patients in the Per Protocol Set whose baseline HbA1c was > 7.0%; Last Observation Carried Forward.Per Protocol Set: the set of data generated by the subset of patients who sufficiently complied with the protocol to ensure that these data would be likely to exhibit the effects of treatment, according to the underlying scientific model.
