ECW/TBW extracellular to total body water ratio.

Mean (SD) of the continuous variables were presented. The mean difference (Δ¯) (and 95% confidence intervals) between groups were analyzed using estimated marginal means comparison from Generalized Linear Model upon controlling for age, sex, and GDS score. P values were adjusted using multiplicity adjustment Tukey test and denoted by * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001. Effect sizes (Γ) were calculated as suggested by Lakens (2013)41. Bold text indicates a significant mean difference with p < 0.05.
