Continuous data obeying normal or similar normal distribution were described as mean ± standard deviation (SD) and variance analysis of randomized block design or the paired t-test was applied to compare the differences between the three/two groups. Otherwise, median (1st quartile, 3rd quartile) and Friedman M or Wilcoxon signed-rank tests were used. Categorical data were presented as a number of cases (%) and the McNemar-Bowker test was utilized to compare the differences between the groups.
