Figure 1 End-of-treatment (S week) and 6-month abstinence rates (point prevalence) and time to relapse (survival functions) for study 1. Statistical results. Efficacy (point prevalence): end of treatment χ2(1) = 3.33, p < 0.05; 6-month χ2(1) = 1.89, p = 0.08. Survival analysis: Wilcoxon χ2(1) = 5.59. p < 0.02; log-rank χ2(1) = 4.33, p < 0.05. Note that percentages are not directly comparable between the two graphs due to slightly different definitions of abstinence.

Efficacy (point prevalence): end of treatment χ2(1) = 3.89, p < 0.05; 6-month χ2(1) = 2.70, p = 0.05. Survival analysis: Wilcoxon χ2(1) = 5.76, p < 0.02, log-rank χ2(1) = 4.51, p0.05. Note that percentages are not directly comparable between the two graphs due to slightly different definitions of abstinence.
