Fig 1 Duration of air leak in hours was compared in patients who underwent treatment with fibrin sealant (FS) and those with standard treatment (ST). The error bars show the standard deviation (SD). FS group: mean, 43.1 (SD, 73.9); ST group: mean, 66.6 (SD, 95.6). *p < 0.005 (Mann-Whitney U test).

Fig 2 Drainage duration in hours was compared in patients who underwent treatment with fibrin sealant (FS) and those with standard treatment (ST). The error bars show the standard deviation (SD). FS group: mean, 143.0 (SD, 74.8). ST group: mean, 157.1 (SD, 129.0). p = 0.992 by Mann-Whitney U test.
