2) Data are presented as the mean±SD.
3) The data were statistically evaluated using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Dunnett’s Multiple Comparison test to compare significant differences between the groups at NSp>0.05 (NS=not significant), *p<0.05, **p<0.01, and ***p<0.001.
4) Statistically significant from the uRO groups at NSp>0.05.
