The percentage decline in total number of patients seen per month, number of inclusions per month and percentage inclusions of total number of patients, during the trial period in comparison with the pre-trial screening period. To calculate this percentage decline, the total number of patients seen in the trial period was divided by the total number of patients seen in the pre-screening trial period. Similar calculations were made for the number of inclusions per month and the inclusion percentage. These rates (a) were transformed to a percentage decline (b) using the following formula: b = (1-a) * 100%. This figure therefore shows that for all variables there were fewer patients during the trial period compared with the pre-trial screening period in all countries. NL, the Netherlands; CA, Canada; US, United States.
