Statistical Analysis:
All categorical data was expressed as N (%) and continuous data was
expressed as mean (Standard Deviation). Dependent variables were
assessed for normality, and the trust and communication scores among the
hematologists were rank transformed. Linear regression was used to find
the association between scores among PCP and hematologists. Wilcoxon
rank sum test was used to detect the difference between PCP and
hematologists’ scores. A p-value of ≤0.05 was considered to be
statistically significant. All tests were two-sided. The statistical
software STATA/IC 14 was used for data analysis.
