 The protocol was originally designed by the principal investigator (Dr Nurko), and later modifications occurred with input from Drs DiLorenzo, Youssef, and Sabri. After the protocol was finalized, it was submitted to the sponsor, who agreed to fund the project and participated in some later modifications of the protocol design. The collection of the data was done by the investigators. The analysis of the data was done in a joint fashion between the investigators and the sponsor. The interpretation of the data was done by the investigators. The first draft of the manuscript was written by Dr Nurko, and there was no honorarium involved in the production of the manuscript. Later drafts were modified by the other investigators. The sponsors reviewed the manuscript but did not modify its main content, message, or conclusions. The decision to submit for publication and where to submit were done by the investigators, without any input form the sponsor. The results and publication were not influenced by the sponsor in any way.
