Assessment of cfDNA release dynamics during colorectal cancer surgery (IMAGE)
Caption
Figure 5: Comparison of cfDNA concentrations with blood sampling time (n = 16), analysis of elevated (n = 4) and reduced (n = 8) cfDNA concentrations during surgery.
(A) Graphical representation of the overall release of cfDNA at each blood sampling time during surgery for each patient on the left. On the right, an expanded view showing the elevated release of cfDNA for each patient. (B) Graphical representation of cfDNA release in patients in whom a reduction in cfDNA was observed during surgery. On the left, general graphic. Friedman’s test was applied (p = 0.0469), followed by the Wilcoxon test for comparisons between PRE vs. INTRA, INTRA vs. POST and PRE vs. POST. On the right, graphical representation of cfDNA release per patient.
