Fig 1 Influence of systemic vascular disease (SVD) on quality of life after thoracoabdominal aneurysm repair as assessed by scores on the domains of the Medical Outcomes Study Short-Form 36-Item (SF36) Health Survey at mean 5 ± 3.2 years after operation. Data are shown with the standard error. Journal of Vascular Surgery 2008 48, 828-835.e1DOI: (10.1016/j.jvs.2008.05.018) Copyright © 2008 The Society for Vascular Surgery Terms and Conditions

Fig 4 Influence of hospital length of stay on quality of life after thoracoabdominal aneurysm repair as assessed by scores on the domains of the Medical Outcomes Study Short-Form 36-Item (SF36) Health Survey. Prolonged hospitalization may be a surrogate for poor physical functioning domains. Data are shown with the standard error.
