Instead, an opt-out approach was implemented, with study details and the option to decline participation disclosed on the hospital’s website. This ensured patient autonomy and compliance with ethical guidelines for retrospective studies. The study was conducted in accordance with the Clinical Trials Act of Japan and the Declaration of Helsinki.
