Cellular oxygen consumption. We found a significant difference in post-surgery relative basal oxygen consumption between groups (99 % [89, 126] vs. 85 % [66, 136], p = 0.04) and a significant difference in cellular maximal oxygen consumption between groups (107 % [86, 155] vs. 90 % [54, 125], p = 0.02). The boxplots represent the 1^st quartiles, median, and 3^rd quartile. The whiskers represent the 10^th and 90^th percentile and outliers are marked with dots. The y-axis is logarithmic to better illustrate the findings
