Fig. 6.
Static end-inspiratory transpulmonary pressure (Pl,esEIO = Pl,esEEO + El × Vt, where El is lung elastance and Vt is tidal volume), which is the parenchymal stress after inflation, plotted against the 3 parameters that together determine its value. Pl,esEIO is moderately correlated with Pl,esEEO (A), correlated with El (b), and not correlated with Vt (C).
