Probabilities of less than 0.10 in the linear univariate regression model were added to the backward linear multivariate regression model. Results are reported as unstandardised coefficient (USC) and standardised coefficient (SC) with the corresponding P value and the R‑square value in the linear univariate regression model. The R square of the backward linear multivariate regression model was 0.100
