Table 5. Comparison of pulmonary function between SS ≤5 vs. SS ≥6 groups.

Pulmonary function SS ≤5 (n=32) SS ≥6 (n=24) P value
FVC (%)
   Baseline 101 (65.0, 136) 99.2 (70.7, 115) 0.46
   Postoperatively 93.4 (44.5, 127) 84.8 (56.4, 112) 0.23
   Change from baseline −11.0 (−50.8, 15.3) −9.50 (−36.5, 6.30) 0.60
FEV1 (%)
   Baseline 95.2 (51.4, 127) 89.2 (67.2, 119) 0.47
   After surgery 87.3 (41.5, 122) 73.1 (45.5, 105) 0.29
   Change from baseline −7.95 (−26.0, 11.3) −9.75 (−29.3, 11.8) 0.28

Data are expressed as median (range). FEV1, forced expiratory volume in 1 second; FVC, forced vital capacity; SS, subsegments.
