Table 3.
Changes in tumor volume before and after treatment ( ± s).
Group | Tumor volume (V1) on the 7th pre-operative day (cm3) | Tumor volume (V1) on the 14th post-operative day (cm3) | Increase in tumor volume (cm3) |
---|---|---|---|
Group A | 0.65 ± 0.09 | 3.43 ± 0.22 | 2.78 ± 0.27 |
Group B | 0.63 ± 0.10 | 2.51 ± 0.21 | 1.80 ± 0.11 |
Group C | 0.70 ± 0.12 | 2.78 ± 0.09 | 2.08 ± 0.08 |
Group D | 0.63 ± 0.11 | 1.23 ± 0.15 | 0.59 ± 0.12 |
Group E | 0.70 ± 0.09 | 1.80 ± 0.16 | 1.11 ± 0.21 |
F value | 0.561 | 149.334 | 147.923 |
P value | 0.693 | 0.000 | 0.000 |
Note: As shown by LSD paired comparisons, the P value was greater than 0.05 between group B and C (P = 0.10) and was less than 0.05 among the other groups, with significant differences.
