Empirical distribution functions of the short-axis lymph node diameter. Empirical distribution functions of the short-axis lymph node diameter [cm] from the computed tomograms of lymph nodes at the different echelons of the mediastinum, plotted separately for EBUS-positive and negative echelons. Group (1.0): echelon-1, EBUS-negative; Group (1.1): echelon-1, EBUS-positive; Group (2.0): echelon-2, EBUS-negative; Group (2.1): echelon-2, EBUS-positive; Group (3.0): echelon-3, EBUS-negative; Group (3.1): echelon-3, EBUS-positive. There were significant differences in the distributions of EBUS-positive and negative nodes (P < 0.0001, Kruskal–Wallis test).
