Jmp pro software 2019 ver 15

Statistical analysis was performed using the JMP^® Pro software 2019 ver 15.0 (SAS Institute Inc., Cary, NC, USA). The Wilcoxon test was used for group comparison. Spearman’s test adjusted for age, sex, disease duration, and the age of onset was used to examine the correlation between variables. Fisher’s exact test was used to compare the differences in frequency distribution based on sex, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease, current smoking, thyroid disease, and ischemic heart disease. A p-value less than 0.05 (p < 0.05) was considered statistically significant.
