This is in response to the Letter to the Editor
Dear editor
We thank Dr. Pan for his interest in our article1 and we thank him for his advice and constructive feedback.
We appreciate that Dr. Pan remarked our misprints and we will consider them according to the journal policy. We would like to note that, for sample size calculation, we did use the sample size formula stated by him and yielded the same sample size of 334 participants before the addition of 10% which we added for any incomplete data.1
Dr. Pan also provided a number of respectable suggestions that we will consider in our future research.
Disclosure
The authors report no conflicts of interest in this communication.
