Note. Quasistatic pressure-volume curves were performed and volumes (mL) were measured at −10, 0, 5, 10, 20, and 35 cm H2O (± SEM). n = 5–8 per group.

*

Ctr had significantly lower volumes at 5, 10, 20, and 35 cm H2O compared to Neo CS (P < .04).

**

Neo CS had significantly lower volumes at 20 and 35 cm H2O compared to Adult CS (P < .03).

Adult CS had significantly higher volumes at 0–35 cm H2O compared to Ctr (P < .04).

Neo CS + Adult CS had significantly higher volumes at 0 to 35 cm H2O compared to both Ctr and Neo CS (P < .01).
