Experimental Models of Acute Lung Injury to Study Inflammation and Pathophysiology: A Narrative Review [PDF]
Acute lung injury (ALI) is characterized by acute respiratory insufficiency, including tachypnea, cyanosis refractory to oxygen, decreased lung compliance, and diffuse alveolar infiltrates, which is a condition associated with high morbidity and ...

#### Key points Acute lung injury (ALI) and the more severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) are the pulmonary manifestations of an acute systemic inflammatory process characterised clinically by pulmonary infiltrates, hypoxaemia and oedema.

Acute lung injury causes three major pathologic patterns of injury to the lung. These include acute and organizing diffuse alveolar damage, organizing pneumonia, and acute fibrinous organizing pneumonia. This pathology is characteristically temporally uniform, i.e., occurs at a single point in time, and is found in the setting of overlapping clinical ...

Research Progress of Ferroptosis in Acute Lung Injury [PDF]
Ferroptosis, a novel programmed cell death characterized by intracellular accumulation of lipid peroxides, has played an important role in a wide range of diseases. Acute lung injury is a critical illness caused by several reasons, and the mortality rate

Factor H preserves alternative complement function during ARDS, linked to improved survival
Background Effective regulation of complement activation may be crucial to preserving complement function during acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Factor H is the primary negative regulator of the alternative pathway of complement.

Pediatric acute lung injury [PDF]
Among ventilated children, the incidence of acute lung injury (ALI) was 9%; of that latter group 80% developed the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The population-based prevalence of pediatric ARDS was 5.5 cases/100.000 inhabitants.

Hyperoxic Acute Lung Injury [PDF]
Prolonged breathing of very high F(IO(2)) (F(IO(2)) ≥ 0.9) uniformly causes severe hyperoxic acute lung injury (HALI) and, without a reduction of F(IO(2)), is usually fatal. The severity of HALI is directly proportional to P(O(2)) (particularly above 450 mm Hg, or an F(IO(2)) of 0.6) and exposure duration.

Interleukin-36 Cytokines in Infectious and Non-Infectious Lung Diseases
The IL-36 family of cytokines were identified in the early 2000’s as a new subfamily of the IL-1 cytokine family, and since then, the role of IL-36 cytokines during various inflammatory processes has been characterized.
