These are raw p-values based on two-sided two-sample t-test for QOL and NIHSS outcomes and chi-square test for postoperative delirium. The minimum FDR adjusted p-value for QQL was 0.675 for DP vs. HM and 0.638 for LM vs. DP.

**

Mean diff = mean (DP) – mean (HM) or mean (LM) – mean (DP) for each variable.
