For the bivariable analysis, only significant results are shown. The level of significance was set at p≤0.05.
The multivariable analyses adjusted for demographic variables that were significant in bivariable analyses.
*
Fisher’s exact test was used for these calculations due to small expected values.
#
Multivariable analysis results of this categorical variable were not shown due to small value.
