Numbers with percentages in parentheses. Percentages were calculated for all 106 patients receiving DD and all 62 patients receiving DVD unless otherwise stated in numbers section. Medians with ranges in brackets for all patients unless otherwise stated. P values to test for differences between DD and DVD were calculated with the Kruskal-Wallis test for continuous variables, and the Fisher exact test for categorical variables. Statistically significant results (P < .05) are bold.
