Continuous variables were tested for normality using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test; data are expressed as means ± SD if normally distributed or as median (range) if not. When normally distributed, variables were analyzed using one-way ANOVA and when not using the Kruskal-Wallis test. Categorical variables are expressed as raw number (%). Comparisons of categorical variables were done using the χ2 test. Differences were considered significant at P < .05.
