Declarations
:
: This retrospective single-center study was approved by the institutional review board of the Dokkyo Medical University Saitama Medical Center (Approval Number: 2062). All procedures performed in studies followed the 1964 Helsinki Declaration and its later amendments or comparable ethical standards.
: The need to obtain written patient consent was waived because of the retrospective nature of this study. However, we obtained consent using the opt-out method (by placing a poster on our institution’s website in which we described the study protocol and offering patients who were eligible for inclusion in the study the opportunity not to be enrolled).
: The authors declare that they have no conflict of interest.
