Categorized variables are presented as: a number with a percentage. Abbreviations: N—valid measurements; n—number of patients with a parameter above the cut-off point; SD—standard deviation; ANOVA—analysis of variance; N/A—non-applicable; a—low- vs. medium-risk stratum; b—low- vs. high-risk stratum; c—medium- vs. high-risk stratum. Statistically significant differences are marked in red color.
