All values are median (minimum, maximum) unless otherwise stated; U and p-values are by Mann-Whitney U test
^¥Values are mean ± SD, t and p-values by independent t-test
*p-value is significant at the 0.05 level (2-tailed)
^¥df computed only for independent t-test
^§Effect size for Mann-Whitney U test is derived from Z/√N and is Cohen’s D value for independent t-test
