Fig. 1From: Clinical relevance of transcranial Doppler in a cardiac surgery setting: embolic load predicts difficult separation from cardiopulmonary bypassHITS distribution. A Left side HITS distribution. B Right side HITS distribution. C HITS distribution according to CPB separation classification, after log transforming the number of HITS. The log transformation allowed a better visual comparison. The horizontal line is the median value, the box represents the inter-quartile range, and the bars represent the upper and lower 25th percentiles, excluding outliers. Significant differences to control is indicated by an asterisk (P < 0.001). CPB cardiopulmonary bypass, HITS high-intensity transient signal, IQR interquartile rangeBack to article page
