Impact of SCI and O2 therapy on diaphragm cross-sectional area and contractile function. A Representative photomicrographs of tissue sections from the mid-costal diaphragm in each experimental group. Tissues were stained to recognize myosin heavy chain I (MHC I, blue), myosin heavy chain IIa (MHC IIa, green), and laminin (red). Unstained fibers are type IIb/x. B Summary data of the cross sectional area. C Ex-vivo assessment of diaphragm specific force. A one-way ANOVA was used to determine group differences. The omnibus effect of group p-value is noted; *indicates p < 0.05 Dunnet’s post-hoc compared to Intact
