A maximum time interval of 28 days between both visits was used for inclusion in this study. Test\u2013retest reliability was assessed by intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). Bland and Altman plots provided mean difference and 95% limits of agreement, which were used to calculate the smallest detectable change (SDC).
