Notes.
*
Normal distribution date are represented by mean ± SD and analyzed using Student’s t-test, Non-normally distributed measures are expressed as M (P25, P75) and the Mann–Whitney U-test was used for comparison between two groups. The Chi- square test was used for analyzing categorical variables, which were presented as percentages.
