Statistical analysis
CMD
REGRESSION
Continuous variables were determined to be skewed and therefore were presented as median values with quartile ranges. Categorical variables were presented as frequency and percentage. Wilcoxon Rank Sum, Chi-Square, or Fisher's Exact tests were used to assess baseline differences and outcomes between the study groups, as appropriate. Stepwise selection was used to create multivariable logistic regression models to investigate procedural factors associated with CMD. Kaplan–Meier analysis was used to assess MACE-free survival rates, and differences were evaluated using the log-rank test. A probability level of p < α (where α is the significance level set at 0.05) was assumed to determine statistical significance. Data processing was performed using IBM SPSS Statistics 27.
