From: An appraisal of respiratory system compliance in mechanically ventilated covid-19 patients
Linear regression analysis of static respiratory system compliance, based on the first measurement obtained within 48 h from commencement of mechanical ventilation, and body mass index with an interaction for sex. Per each graph, fitted line of the model is depicted and the upper and lower lines display the 95% predictive interval. Dark grey dots depict female patients, while light grey dots males. Static respiratory system compliance did not vary according to the body mass index (estimate − 0.12 cmH2O/mL, 95%CI − 0.29 to − 0.04, p = 0.139), but was associated with female sex (estimate − 10.73 cmH2O/mL, 95%CI − 18.54 to − 2.92, p = 0.007)
