Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Patients were randomized into intervention and control group. Participants in intervention group received three-sessions of ESWT and single one session of ESWT was given in control group. The evaluation was performed pretreatment as well as on the 4th, 8th, 12th, 16th and 24 week after the treatment.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Three-sessions of ESWT
ESWT was given once a week for 3 weeks.
extracorporeal shock wave therapy
Shock waves are defined a sequence of acoustic pulse characterized by a high peak pressure (100 MPa), fast pressure rise (\< 10 ns) and short duration (10 μs).
One-session of ESWT
Single ESWT was given.
extracorporeal shock wave therapy
Shock waves are defined a sequence of acoustic pulse characterized by a high peak pressure (100 MPa), fast pressure rise (\< 10 ns) and short duration (10 μs).
