CI, confidence interval.
a
Impossible to compute a confidence interval (n = 1).
All costs were expressed in euros (€) at 2023 price year and adjusted for inflation based on the French National Institute of Statistics and Economic Studies (INSEE) Consumer Price Indices of the healthcare products and services.
Cost differences between groups were considered statistically significant if the bootstrapped 95% CIs did not overlap.
