The data demonstrated that intermittent spontaneous breathing during the course of mechanical ventilation may minimize the deleterious effect of controlled mechanical ventilation on diaphragm force, fiber dimensions, and expression of transcription factors.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
