Diaphragm Po | p-Akt/total Akt | p-4E-BP1/total 4E-BP1 | CSA of Diaphragm Type IIx/b Fibers | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Duration of spontaneous breathing, h | r = 0.65*, P < 0.0001 | r = 0.81, P < 0.0001 | r = 0.68, P < 0.001 | |
Diaphragm Po | r = 0.45, P < 0.05 | r = 0.54, P < 0.05 | r = 0.45*, P < 0.01 |
Correlations between duration of spontaneous breathing or diaphragm tetanic force (Po) and diaphragm Po, the ratio of phosphorylated Akt (p-Akt) to total Akt, the ratio of phosphorylated eukaryotic initiation factor 4E binding protein (p-4E-BP1) to total 4E-BP1, and the cross-sectional area (CSA) of the diaphragm type IIx/b fibers
Correlations are made with all groups considered in the analysis.
