Fig. 2From: Surgical stress and postoperative complications related to regional and radical mastectomy in dogsGraphic representation with mean values and standard deviation for serum cortisol (a), serum glucose (b), systolic arterial pressure (c), and diastolic arterial pressure (d) at T2 (immediately before premedication), T4 (5 min after general anesthesia and orotracheal intubation), T5 (immediately after orotracheal intubation), T6 (2 h after surgery), and T8 (24 h after surgery) in dogs undergoing regional (n = 18) and radical (n = 18) mastectomy. Significant differences for serum cortisol (Mann–Whitney, P < 0.004), on T6; serum glucose, on T6 (Fisher, P < 0.01) and T8 (Fisher, P < 0.04); and systolic arterial pressure, on T6 (Fisher, P < 0.03), are marked with starsBack to article page
