  1. ∆Denominator of the percentage is the total number of patients
  2. ∞Denominator is patients who survived
  3. *T -Test / ^Wilcoxon rank sum test is used to calculate the p-value
  4. ^^Chi-square test is used to calculate the p-value
  5. $Cox proportional hazards regression analysis used to calculate HR and p-value
  6. $*Generalized linear model is used to calculate estimates and p-value
