Fig. 1 Postoperative pulmonary function after thoracotomy with pulmonary resection. Median and 25th to 75th percentile values are shown. Open circles, Steroid group; closed circles, placebo group; d, day.

Fig. 2 Temporary postoperative reduction in pulmonary function after thoracotomy with pulmonary resection. Mean values and percentage are shown. Value after 1 month served as control value (100%). Open circles, Steroid group; closed circles, placebo group. The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery 1996 112, 142-145DOI: (10.1016/S0022-5223(96)70189-7) Copyright © 1996 Mosby, Inc.

Fig. 3 Postoperative pain score after thoracotomy with pulmonary resection. Verbal pain assessment assigned score of 0 for no pain, 1 for light pain, 2 for moderate, 3 for severe, and 4 for unbearable. Median and upper range scores during rest and cough are shown. Open circles, Steroid group; closed circles, placebo group; h, hours. Stars indicate significant difference between groups.
