The duration of complaints was divided into two groups to the extent this was possible:

  • Acute disease (duration of symptoms ≤2 months)
  • Subchronic and/or chronic disease (duration of symptoms >2 months)
[2] Within the range of the observational study, it was ascertained whether the inclusion diagnosis had been treated previously.
