Continuous variables are presented as mean ± standard deviation (SD), while the categorical data are presented as numbers and percentages. We used the χ2 and fisher’s exact tests for comparison between categorical variables in each group. A Cox regression analysis was utilized to determine the independent impact of each of the variables for predicting primary outcome of interest. Survival curves were analyzed through the Kaplan-Meier method. A two-sided P-value of less than 0.05 was considered to be statistically significant. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS version 22.0 software (SPSS, Inc., Chicago, IL, USA).
