Figure 3
Boxplots showing the tumor size between two groups. The tumor size in CS group (3.63 ± 0.89 cm) was larger than that of S group (2.44 ± 1.89 cm) (P < 0.05), which was measured by counting the greatest dimension of the tumors. The number 18 and 19 in the figure indicate the outlier value of tumor size in the S group, referred to size 7.3 and 6.3 cm, respectively.
