Data are presented as mean ± standard deviation for continuous parametric variables and median (minimum–maximum) for continuous nonparametric variables. Comparisons of parameters were performed using one-way ANOVA for parametric variables and Kruskal–Wallis test for nonparametric variables. A was considered statistically significant for all analyses.
