+ = seropositive, − =seronegative, P = P-value for difference between seropositive and seronegative.

Chi-square tests were used by default to test categorical variables. Age differences were assessed using a Wilcoxon rank sum test. Univariate analysis of survival differences was assessed using a log-rank test.
