Fig. 1. Box-and-whisker plot shows diameters of aneurysms measured before hospital discharge (0 year) and at 1-, 2-, and 3-year follow-ups. Center lines in boxes represent mean values; upper and lower ends of boxes represent 25th and 75th percentile values, respectively. Ends of error bars show extreme values.
