Fig 2 Intraoperative time course of CO (a), left ventricular stroke work index (LVSWI) (b), SV (c), and PCWP (d). Open circles indicate the xenon group; closed circles indicate the sevoflurane group. *P<0.05 vs baseline, tested by unpaired t-test. anova testing for all time points did not reveal a significant change.
