Notes: Data are given as mean ± SD and range (min–max) or absolute number and proportion. For two-group comparisons, qualitative data were analyzed by two-factor χ2 test, ordinal measurement data by Mann–Whitney U-test, and continuous variables by Student’s t-test. P≤0.05 was considered statistically significant.
