Comparison of area fraction of sarcomere disruptions among the four groups. Z-streaming (white arrows) indicate sarcomere disruptions in the longitudinal profile of the muscle fibers a. The area fraction of sarcomere disruptions was significantly higher in the PSV group compared with the NAVA group. In the CMV group, sarcomere disruptions were lower than those seen in the NAVA and PSV groups b. *: P < 0.05, adjusted for the Bonferroni method
