3 Fig 2 Scatter plots of visual analogue scores vs bupivacaine dosage. Bubble graphs depicting resting and dynamic visual analogue scores at 8, 24, and 48 h after thoracotomy. The diameter of each bubble is proportional to the number of patients in the PVB group(s) of each trial.

4 Fig 3 Scatter plots of visual analogue scores vs ropivacaine dosage. Bubble graphs depicting resting and dynamic visual analogue scores at 24 h after thoracotomy. The diameter of each bubble is proportional to the number of patients in the PVB group(s) of each trial.
