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.

Quantification of lung glucose metabolism with positron emission tomography in patients with Acute Lung Injury [PDF]
Acute lung injury is lung pathologies that confer considerable morbidity and high mortality and has no specific treatment. One cause of ALI exacerbation can be the mechanical ventilation provided in the intensive care unit ICU probably because of ...

Circulating leukotriene b4 identifies respiratory complications after trauma [PDF]
Background. Leukotriene B4 (LTB4), a proinflammatory lipid mediator correlates well with the acute phase of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). Therefore, LTB4-levels were investigated to determine whether they might be a useful clinical marker ...

Obesity and Acute Lung Injury [PDF]
Acute lung injury (ALI) and the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) are common indications for ICU admission and mechanical ventilation. ALI/ARDS also consumes significant health care resources and is a common cause of death in ICU patients.

High tidal volume ventilation is not deleterious in infant rats exposed to severe hemorrhage [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Both high tidal volume (VT) ventilation and hemorrhage induce acute lung injury in adult rodents. It is not known whether injurious ventilation augments lung injury in infant rats exposed to severe hemorrhage.

Stereological analysis of acute lung injury
Acute lung injury is associated with a variety of histopathological alterations, such as oedema formation, damage to the components of the blood–air barrier and impairment of the surfactant system. Stereological methods are indispensable tools with which

Neutrophils in acute lung injury
Acute lung injury (ALI)/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is characterised by lung oedema due to increased permeability of the alveolar-capillary barrier and subsequent impairment of arterial oxygenation. Lung oedema and endothelial and epithelial injury are accompanied by an influx of neutrophils into the interstitium and alveolar space ...
