    Mice exposed to 75% O 2 <t>(hyperoxia)</t> or room air (normoxia) ± hydrocortisone (1mg HC, 5mg HC, or 10mg HC) or sterile water (vehicle) were euthanized and hearts were dissected (n=4–20 per group; black columns: vehicle, gray: 1mg HC, hatched: 5mg HC, dotted: 10mg HC). Fulton’s index was measured as the weight of the right ventricle (RV) divided by the weight of the left ventricle plus septum (LV+S). Data are shown as mean ± SEM, *p<0.05 vs. normoxia-vehicle, †p<0.05 vs. hyperoxia-vehicle.
