All confounders effect modifiers and exposures will be controlled for by crude and adjusted regression analyses where the primary analysis will be the adjusted one Failure to do so as a result of violating principles of a regression model will call for a subgroup analysis where a student t test will be used for the comparison between the subgroups

It is also planned to study the interactions between the variables via ANOVA test if the data show normal distribution

Participants with missing data will be excluded

Sensitivity of the results to adjusted and crude analysis will be done
