Unadjusted mean differences and unadjusted odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) and p-values for cluster comparisons were derived from simple linear regression or logistic regression, respectively.

Adjusted mean differences and odds ratios with 95% CI and p-values for cluster comparisons were derived from multivariable linear regression or logistic regression, respectively, adjusting for patient demographics and clinical characteristics.

*p-Value derived from analysis of variance for bivariate comparisons of means by cluster and chi-square tests of independence for bivariate comparisons of categorical variables by cluster.
