(A) Average registered with the number of treatments. The shaded area represents the number of patients at the given number of treatment. (B) UAS7 score registered with the number of treatments. The shaded area again illustrates the number of patients. DQLI: dermatological quality of life index, UAS7: urticaria activity score of 7. *p<0.001 as calculated by one-way ANOVA for values at treatment number 1, 2 and 3.
