Serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin (IL)-6 in non-ventilated and mechanically ventilated septic animals. C: healthy, anesthetized, non-ventilated, spontaneous breathing; S: septic, anesthetized, non-ventilated, spontaneous breathing; SLVT + PEEP: septic, ventilated with low tidal volume plus positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) of 10 cmH2O; SHVT: septic, ventilated with high tidal volume. Eight animals were quantified in each group. *** P <0.0001 vs. S and SLVT + PEEP.
