Perinatal Hyperoxia and Developmental Consequences on the Lung-Brain Axis

Figure 1

Comparison of lung and brain development in humans and rodents. The time course of lung (upper panel, blue) and brain (lower panel, green) development of humans (filled bars) and rodents (shaded overlays) is shown during gestation and the neonatal period (bars with arrowheads indicate continued development after birth). This summary was created based on previous reports for lung [27, 36] and brain [35, 184] development.
