Figure 1A. Proportion (%) of patients in NSABP B-32 reporting symptoms (all levels of severity) in the arm and breast at 6 months after breast cancer surgery, according to 4 categories of ROM. ROM categories refer to maximal arm abduction in degrees. Symptoms were measured on a 5-point scale and dichotomized as bothered (any level) vs not bothered.

Abbreviations: ROM, range of motion; tend-a, arm tenderness; swel-a, arm swelling; pain-a, arm pain; numb-a, arm numbness; skin-a, arm skin sensitivity; tight-a, arm tightness; weak-a, arm weakness; tend-b, breast tenderness; swel-b, breast swelling; pain-b, breast pain; numb-b, breast numbness; skin-b, breast skin sensitivity; tight-b, breast tightness.

Figure 1B. Proportion (%) of patients in NSABP B-32 reporting symptoms (all levels of severity) in the arm and breast at 6 months after breast cancer surgery, according to arm edema (yes/no). Symptoms were measured on a 5-point scale and dichotomized as bothered (any level) vs not bothered.
