  1. IQR, interquartile range. Data in parentheses are percentages, unless otherwise noted. Age distribution: χ2 test for all groups, all groups (except for mixed vascular): Pearson Chi-square = 30.416, P = 0.000; Pearson Chi-square = 19.24, P = 0.001 (adjusted α = 0.017), respectively. Age: Kruskal-Wallis H test for all groups: P = 0.003. Wilcoxon rank sum test for arteriogenic versus venogenic: P = 0.04 (adjusted α = 0.017).
