Table 2 Comparison between studied subjects with and without MGA

From: Analysis of the frequency of Martin–Gruber anastomosis in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome

Variables			Subjects				p
			With MGA		Without MGA
			Number = 22		Number = 78
Age (years)		Mean ± SD	40.0	11.0	39.8	9.2	0.945
Gender	Males	N (%)	5	22.7%	9	11.5%	0.182
Gender	Females	N (%)	17	77.3%	69	88.5%	0.182
Weight (kg)		Mean ± SD	76.6	12.1	76.4	9.0	0.939
Height (cm)		Mean ± SD	166.3	7.6	165.5	4.4	0.563
Body mass index (kg/cm²		Mean ± SD	27.7	3.9	27.9	3.1	0.810
MN forearm CV (m/s)		Mean ± SD	54.940	6.5754	56.772	8.6575	0.385

MGA Martin–Gruber anastomosis, N number, P value probability value, SD standard deviation, MN median nerve, CV conduction velocity, p > 0.05 = insignificant difference
