n = preparations included in the study
- HPC: high-pressure control (normocapnic); HPRA: high-pressure respiratory acidosis (hypercapnic); HPMA: high-pressure metabolic acidosis; LPC: low-pressure control (normocapnic); LPRA: low-pressure respiratory acidosis (hypercapnic); LPMA: low-pressure metabolic acidosis; dKf: difference in ultrafiltration coefficient before and after the 1-hr ventilation-perfusion protocol; dPAP20: difference in mean pulmonary artery pressure after 20 min of ventilation; dPAP40: difference in mean pulmonary artery pressure after 40 min of ventilation-perfusion
