2.5 Statistics
SPSS 26.0 software was used to analyze all data. The significance of
differences between the count data groups was analyzed using χ2 test or
Fisher’s exact test. Continuous variables were tested for normal
distribution using the Shapiro-Wilk test, and the results were expressed
as mean ± SD. An independent sample T test (two-tailed) or nonparametric
Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison between the two groups, and
all results with P<0.05 were considered significant
differences. GraphPad Prism version 9.0.0 was used for drawing.
