Statistical calculations were done among those who were exposed to modulatory factors. The rates show provocation rates unless otherwise stated. The bold and underlined ones are statistically significant rates according to adjusted residual (≥2) values and p-value (<0.05) in Pearson chi-square. The italic and underlined ones are meaningful according to adjusted residuals and p-values (<0.05) in chi-square, but not the rates in which the number of individuals are <15.
