aIndividuals who developed grade 2 alopecia; bindividuals who developed grade 1 alopecia; cindividuals who did not developed any ADRs after chemotherapy; dORs and CIs are calculated using category (group) 1 as reference. *OR calculated after Haldane’s correction: adding 0.5 to all the cells of a contingency table if any of the cell expectations would cause a division by zero error. Cat, category; OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval; Ref, reference.
