a
Exact p-value for the test of the null hypothesis of no difference in the distributions of the variable of interest in completers and noncompleters in the Miami cohort using Fisher's exact test for categorical variables and the Wilcoxon rank-sum test for continuous variables.
b
N = 15 for all completers, N = 12 for completers in Miami, and N = 12 for noncompleters in Miami.
c
N = 12 for noncompleters in Miami.
