Figure 1. Prednisolone treatment significantly increases short-term survival following orthotopic lung transplantation (LTX).

Figure 1

Mean short-term survival in hours following LTX. Survival within the observation period of 48h following LTX was tracked. Values are expressed as means ± standard error of the mean (SEM); significance level was set to P<0.05,:*, significantly different from Perfadex-group. Transplantation procedure was repeated until n=6 survivors per group were obtained to ensure homogenic comparison between the groups. ANOVA followed by Bonferroni’s post-hoc multiple comparisons test.
