Mean score° (SD) by time (minutes) after anesthesia administration and on average.

°Akinesia of rectus muscles was coded as follows: 0 = no movement, 1 = reduced movement, and 2 = normal movement.

Mixed-effect linear models' P-values: aP = 0.0069, bP = 0.0182, cP = 0.0002, dP = 0.0004, eP < 0.0001, and fP = 0.0002.

Mixed-effect ordinal logit models' P-values: gP = 0.0001, hP = 0.0007, and iP = 0.0302.
