Data are presented as frequency (percentage) or mean and standard deviation, as appropriate. Full study cohort comparisons were calculated using t-tests or Mann-Whitney U tests for continuous variables and Chi-Square or Fisher’s Exact tests for categorical variables, as appropriate. Matched population comparisons were calculated using paired t-tests or Wilcoxon signed-rank tests for continuous variables and McNemar tests for categorical variables, as appropriate. There were no standardized differences > 10% for matched factors.
Data are presented as percentage of non-missing data
