*2.3. Statistical Analysis*

Statistical analysis, calculation, and visualization were performed using Prism 8 (GraphPad, San Diego, CA, USA). Analysis of correlation was carried out using a two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Tukey's post hoc test. Significance was set at *p* = 0.05. The statistical tests chosen were predetermined by the size of the study group and the numerical range of values.
