PV curves at d30: (A1-4.) Best-fit inflation and deflation curves for each treatment group: A significantly increased hysteresis was noted in the Dex group versus all other groups (p < 0.05). Data points represent individual measurements for each animal. (B.) Deflation curves for each treatment group generated from an exponential rise model. (C.) A significant increase in maximum volume (Vmax) existed between Dex vs. Control/Saline curves (*z = 2.05) as well as Dex + RA vs. Control/Saline (*z = 2.05). No difference was found between RA vs. Control/Saline (z = 0.6).
