PO2 cycling reduces diaphragm fatigue by attenuating ROS formation.

PO2 cycling reduces diaphragm fatigue by attenuating ROS formation.

Prolonged muscle exposure to low PO2 conditions may cause oxidative stress resulting in severe muscular injuries. We hypothesize that PO2 cycling preconditioning, which involves brief cycles of diaphragmatic muscle exposure to a low oxygen level (40 Torr) followed by a high oxygen level (550 Torr),...
