: None to declare.
: All procedures followed were following the ethical standards of the responsible committee on human experimentation and with the Helsinki Declaration of 1964 and later versions. This study was approved as a retrospective observational study by the Research Ethics Committee of Japan Healthcare University (R04-7). As all examinations were performed within the scope of medical care, obtaining informed consent was waived. Instead of obtaining informed consent, the objectives and methods of the present study were shared with the public through a physical bulletin board; patients who did not wish to participate could request their data to be removed from the study.
