Survival analysis of 18G CASP after vagotomy and/or Surgically induced Immune Dysfunction. C57BL/6 N mice underwent subdiaphragmatic vagotomy (VGX) or laparotomy (Sham). After a recovery period of 6 days, either Surgically induced Immune Dysfunction or another laparotomy (sham) was performed. Three days later, 18G CASP was performed and mice were controlled every 6 to 8 h the first 2 days and twice per day for 30 days total. The Log-rank Test was performed to determine survival differences between all groups. ***p < 0.001; n = 7 to 15 (mice that have died before or during CASP procedure, as well as technical failures have been excluded).
