Figure 3. Duration from surgery to highest postoperative BAO.
Each symbol represents duration for a single patient. Each of the patients postoperatively was stratified into one of three acid secretory categories as defined in Figure 1 legend. Duration is the time in years to the highest postoperative BAO. The mean ± SEM of the time from surgery to highest postoperative BAO was 5 ± 1, 4 ± 1, and 4 ± 1 years in the normosecretors, moderate hypersecretors, and severe hypersecretors, respectively.
