Response to recruitment manoeuvre for LCA-derived phenotypes. Box plots present a the amount of ventilated lung, defined as the cumulative CT-graphicly inferred poorly, well- and over-inflated lung, b the respiratory system compliance, b the paO2/FiO2 ratio and d the alveolar dead space at two stages of a recruitment manoeuvre for the non-recruitable and recruitable LCA phenotypes. (a) was measured during a inspiratory hold manoeuvre at an end-inspiratory airway pressures of 5 and 45 cmH2O; (b–d) were measured under positive end-expiratory pressures of 5 and 15 cmH2O. p values *< 0.05; **< 0.01; ***< 0.001 for differences in recruitment manoeuvre between phenotypes and pressures
