Table 2 Correlation coefficients of outputs with respect to mortality data

The table reports the Pearson linear correlation coefficient (r) between the simulated outputs and mortality data reported in 12, with corresponding p value using the students t distribution. Shaded areas highlight parameters with strong positive and significant correlations with mortality data (r > 0.85, p < 0.05). Table ordered in descending order for average r. PF ratio is the ratio of arterial oxygen tension to fraction of O₂ in inspired air. VD/VT is the physiological deadspace fraction
