Figure 1.
Pearson’s correlation coefficient between dynamic transpulmonary pressure (after 2 h of noninvasive ventilation) and radiographic changes on chest X-ray at 24 hours. Each panel corresponds with categories of radiographic change (from left to right: relevant worsening, worsening, mild worsening, unmodified, mild improvement, improvement, and relevant improvement). ΔPl = dynamic transpulmonary pressure; NIV = noninvasive ventilation.
