  1. aSince the univariate analysis of “comorbidities, treated with pituitary hormone, angiographic dilation & thickening, and materials” indicated significant difference, multivariate logistic analysis was performed, and independent variable was screened by stepwise regression
  2. bThis variable was excluded from multifactor correction. Comorbidities, treated with pituitary hormone, and angiographic dilation & thickening were adjusted
