Table 3

Comparison of alveolar airspace volume and density of alveolar septa of groups.

	CG	HG	RCDG	RCDHG
(%)	37.5 (18.7/43.7)	39.1 (25.0/46.8)	39.1 (31.2/46.8)	34.4 (25.0/37.5)	>0.05
(%)	53.1 (43.7/56.2)	45.3 (43.7/62.5)	43.7 (40.6/50.0)	50.0 (43.7/50.0)	>0.05

: alveolar airspace volume; : density of alveolar septa. CG: control group; HG: hyperoxia group; RCDG: refined carbohydrate diet group; RCDHG: refined carbohydrate diet + hyperoxia group. Data were expressed as median, minimum, and maximum () and were analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis test followed by Dunn’s post hoc test ().
