1. From: Negative Pressure Ventilation and Positive Pressure Ventilation Promote Comparable Levels of Ventilator-induced Diaphragmatic Dysfunction in Rats
Anesthes. 2013;119(3): doi: /ALN.0b013e31829b3692
Figure Legend:
Representative photographs of alveolar lung tissue from: (A) nonventilated (CON) animals, (B) positive pressure ventilation animals, (C) negative pressure ventilation animals. Note that both positive pressure ventilation (B) and negative pressure ventilation (C) resulted in increased infiltration of neutrophils (blue arrows) and alveolar macrophages (black arrows). In contrast, the infiltration of neutrophils was absent in the nonventilated (control) animals (A). Scale bars are 50 µm at ×400 magnification.
