Jmp 16.0 statistical software

First, we compared baseline characteristics between the appropriately triaged and undertriaged groups. Pearson’s chi-square test or Fisher’s exact test was performed to compare categorical variables (age categories [0–15, 16–64, 65–74, and > 75] years, sex, comorbidities, telephone triage categories, protocols, and doctor assessments), and Student’s t-test or the Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney test was performed to compare continuous variables (age, vital signs, and time from telephone triage to patient consultation), as appropriate. Second, we conducted a multivariable logistic regression analysis to identify factors associated with undertriage. Third, we conducted sensitivity analyses to exclude patients aged 0–15 years because the protocol used for these patients is different from that used for patients aged > 15 years. All statistical analyses were performed using JMP 16.0 statistical software (SAS Institute, Cary, NC, USA). The significance threshold was set at P of < 0.05.

Characteristics were examined for all participants, and group differences were assessed based on therapy evaluation, with participants categorized into the CR and PR groups. Differences in numerical variables (age and drug frequency) between the subgroups were determined using a Student's t-test. The difference in a nominal variable (sex) between the subgroups was determined using a Fisher's exact test. A two-tailed P-value <0.05 was considered to indicate a statistically significant difference. All statistical analyses were performed using JMP 16.0 statistical software (SAS Institute).
