  1. Values expressed as median [interquartile range = upper quartile (Q3) - lower quartile (Q1)] and adjusted arithmetic mean ratio (aAMR) [95% of confidence interval (95% CI)]. Statistically significant differences are shown in bold. (a)P-values were calculated by generalized linear models (GLM) with gamma distribution (log-link). (b)P-values were calculated by GLM with log-link adjusted by the most important clinical and epidemiological characteristics (see Statistical analysis section).
