Figure 1. Representative recordings of oxygen levels for rats exposed to chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) or ambient oxygen.

Figure 1

This 30 min period depicts 3 complete cycles of CIH in a chamber containing experimental rats, and a constant level of 21% oxygen in a chamber containing control rats. Boxes represent the periods of infusion of 100% nitrogen or oxygen in the CIH chamber, corresponding to 1 cycle.
