Figure 3From: Pressure support ventilation attenuates ventilator-induced protein modifications in the diaphragmIn vitro protein synthesis after 6 and 18 hours of controlled mechanical ventilation (CMV) and pressure support ventilation (PSV). Units are nanomoles of phenylalanine (Phe) per milligram of protein per hour. Values are mean ± standard error. *P < 0.05 compared with control (CON) group. †P < 0.05 compared with PSV group at 6 and 18 hours.Back to article page
