Declarations
:
: The authors declare no competing interests.
: The study was a retrospective study that received IRB approval. At that time, the IRB determined that not only did it meet the following two requirements, but it was also included in the exemption from consent because sensitive information was not included in the study. Requirement 1: Obtaining consent from the research subjects is practically impossible during the course of the study or it is determined that it would seriously affect the validity of the research. Requirement 2: There is no reason to presume that the research subjects would refuse consent, and the exemption from consent poses extremely low risk to the research subjects.
: Approved by the Institutional Review Board of Pusan National University Hospital Clinical Trial Center (IRB No.: H-2401–010-135).
