Kruskal-Wallis sum test was used for categorical tests, unless any cell less than five, then Pearson’s chi-squared test with simulated p-value based on 2000 replicates used; Fisher’s exact test used for quantitative measures; FIGO, International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics; total aneuploidy: number of chromosomal or chromosomal arm level events.
