I encountered two unrelated UW questions that made me confused. I drew them- I apologize for bad drawing but this is what I can do with Paint app. The first diagram is for lung. The second one, please notice that axis are paradoxical, is for mitral regurgitation. UW states that the curve 1, in the 2nd diagram, is acute MR with normal compliance, so more prone to have acute pulmonary edema. While the curve 2 has high compliance (as stated by UW).
I don't understand the way of compliance curves in both diagrams. I hope you can help me to understand those curves and the meaning of compliance in both of them.
