  1. Correlation between changes in Crs and changes in spirometric data (VC, ERV, IRV, and Vt) induced by head-out-of-water immersion. Individual subject values are available in Additional file 1. Statistical significance was determined using Spearman’s test
  2. Compliance of the overall respiratory system (combined lung and chest wall) (Crs); vital capacity (VC); expiratory reserve volume (ERV); inspiratory reserve volume (IRV); tidal volume (Vt); ultrasound lung comets (ULC)
