Evaluation of lung function measurement assessed by single compartment model obtained in mice using orotracheal intubation and tracheostomy, both using the intubation cannula. a-b, Comparaison of the variables compliance (“Crs”, a) and resistance (“Rrs”, b) of the respiratory system in intubated (“OTI”) and tracheostomized (“TRA”) mice. n = 16 BALB/cJ mice, n = 17 C57BL/6 J mice. Data represent individual mice and are analyzed by the Wilcoxon signed-rank test or paired t tests. * P < 0.05. C, Relationships between Crs measured in intubated and tracheostomized BALB/cJ and C57BL/6 J mice. d, Bland-Altman plots to compare two measurements techniques for Crs. The upper and lower limits of agreement (95% confidence interval) are shown by a gray dotted line
