Brief Summary

During the study period, 30 patients in the LTRA group and 10 patients in the no-treatment follow-up group were enrolled. In the LTRA group, the number of ACF decreased significantly from 7.9 +/- 3.0 (pre-treatment) to 5.5 +/- 3.3 (post-treatment, after 8 weeks of LTRA treatment) (p<0.001).
