Changes of electrical impedance tomography values in the four study arms. Box plots of changes of end-expiratory lung impedance (DEELI) and tidal impedance variation (DTIV) are depicted in the four study arms, at baseline (T0), squared at T1, triangles at T2, and rhombus at T3. The bottom and top of the box indicate the 25th and 75th percentile, the horizontal band near the middle of the box is the median, and the ends of the whiskers represent the 10th and 90th percentiles. Statistically significant p values within study arms are reported in the figures. *p < 0.05, compared to N RM− at the same time point; §p < 0.05, compared to N RM+ at the same time point
