Statistics presented as n (%).p-value < 0.05 is considered statistically significant. bKruskal-Wallis test
1: Significantly different from CP-F; 2Significantly different from P-extruded; 3Significantly different from P-Excluded; 4Significantly different from P-Both. Post-hoc pairwise comparisons were done using Bonferroni adjustment
