S-PAL and L-PAL represent the small and large PA lesion groups, respectively. Numbers (percentages) indicate the number of cases (percentage of the number of cases). p values were calculated by Fisher’s exact tests. Bold and italicized characters indicate data with p values < 0.05 and ≥0.05, respectively
