Figure 1

Between-group comparison of serum T-PSA and VEGF level values after treatment (mean ± SD). (a) The between-group comparison of serum T-PSA level values after treatment. The horizontal axis denoted the combined group and the reference group, and the vertical axis denoted the value (ng/mL). After treatment, the mean serum T-PSA level values of the combined group and the reference group were (3.15 ± 1.32) and (10.07 ± 3.84), respectively, and indicated that the mean serum T-PSA level values after treatment between the two groups were significantly different (t = 11.683, ). (b) The between-group comparison of serum VEGF level values after treatment. The horizontal axis denoted the combined group and the reference group, and the vertical axis denoted the value (ng/mL). After treatment, the mean serum VEGF level values of the combined group and the reference group were (113.90 ± 6.41) and (120.84 ± 7.61), respectively, and indicated that the mean serum VEGF level values after treatment between the two groups were significantly different (t = 4.782, ).
