The Kruskal–Wallis test for the lateral region was highly significant ( p < 0.0001).
The Kruskal–Wallis test for the lateral region was highly significant ( p < 0.0001).
Pairwise comparisons showed significant differences between CO-L and DE-L ( p < 0.0001) and between DE-L and RE-L ( p < 0.0001), whereas the comparison between CO-L and RE-L did not reach statistical significance ( p > 0.05) ( Figure 3 L).
