  1. Results are expressed as mean and standard deviation (SD). Post hoc analysis for IL-1β expression: significant differences found between groups: (i) C versus HVLP-P, C versus HVLP-S, C versus LVHP-S, and C versus OA, p < 0.001; (ii) LVHP-S versus HVLP-P, p = 0.014; (iii) LVHP-S versus HVLP-S, p = 0.019; (iv) LVHP-S versus OA, p = 0.007. Post hoc analysis for PMI: significant differences found between groups: (i) NIR versus HVLP-P, NIR versus HVLP-S, NIR versus LVHP-S, and NIR versus OA, p < 0.001; (ii) LVHP-S versus HVLP-P, p < 0.001; (iii) LVHP-S versus HVLP-S, p = 0.026; (iv) LVHP-S versus OA, p = 0.024. C, control group; HVLP-P, high volume-low positive end-expiratory pressure, prone; HVLP-S, high volume-low positive end-expiratory pressure, supine; IL-1β, interleukin-1-beta; logIL1: logarithmic transformation of the expression of IL-1β mRNA normalized by GAPDH mRNA; logPMI, logarithm of the polymorphonuclear infiltratrion index; LVHP-S, low volume-high positive end-expiratory pressure, supine; NIR, no injury, recruited; OA, oleic acid injury, no ventilation; PMI, polymorphonuclear infiltrate.
