Data are shown as mean ± SD of all 26 subjects included in the study. Changes in chest wall (panel A) and compartmental [pulmonary ribcage (panel B), abdominal ribcage (panel C), and abdominal (panel D)] volumes, shortening velocity index of the global inspiratory (ΔVCW/Ti– panel E), ribcage (ΔVRCp/Ti – panel F), and diaphragm (ΔVAB/Ti – panel G) muscles obtained during the SNIP maneuvers during recovery were compared with pre-fatigue values (line at zero). *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; and ***p < 0.0001.
