Figure 9From: Effects of hypercapnia and NO synthase inhibition in sustained hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstrictionEffect of hypercapnia with and without acidosis on exhaled NO. Data are means ± SEM. n = 5-7 each. §, significant difference (P < 0.05) between hypoxic hypercapnic acidosis and hypoxic hypercapnia without acidosis. ‡, significant difference (P < 0.05) between hypoxic groups and normoxic normocapnia. †, significant difference (P < 0.05) between normoxic hypercapnia with or without acidosis compared to normoxic normocapnia. % = percentage of NO referenced to the baseline value at time set at zero.Back to article page
