Data are represented as mean ± standard deviations or number (%). Dagger (^†) represents the chi-square value. Asterisk (*) indicates if the p-value was significant even after Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons (corrected p-value: 0.05/31 = 0.002). Kupperman index (KI): ‘no complaint’ (score 0–6), ‘mild’ (score 7–15), ‘moderate’ (score 16–30), or ‘severe’ (score > 30); Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI): score range is 0–21, and a score of ≥5 points denotes poor sleep quality.
