Comparison of pulmonary function indexes between the two groups (, L).
Groups | Number of cases | FEV1 | FVC | MVV | |||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Presurgery | 3 months after surgery | Presurgery | 3 months after surgery | Presurgery | 3 months after surgery | ||
Observation group | 47 | 2.48 ± 0.50 | 2.04 ± 0.49a | 2.86 ± 0.57 | 2.39 ± 0.47a | 78.65 ± 9.94 | 69.35 ± 7.26a |
Control group | 47 | 2.53 ± 0.54 | 1.65 ± 0.43a | 2.92 ± 0.54 | 1.98 ± 0.45a | 80.02 ± 10.26 | 58.47 ± 6.84a |
t | 0.466 | 4.101 | 0.524 | 4.320 | 0.657 | 7.478 | |
P | 0.643 | 0.001 | 0.602 | 0.001 | 0.513 | 0.001 |
Note: aP < 0.05, compared with the group before surgery. FEV1: forced vital capacity in 1 second; FVC: forced vital capacity; MVV: maximal voluntary ventilation.
