Skeletal muscle dysfunction is associated with derangements in mitochondrial bioenergetics (but not UCP3) in a rodent model of sepsis [PDF]

, 2015
Muscle dysfunction is a common feature of severe sepsis and multi-organ failure. Recent evidence implicates bioenergetic dysfunction and oxidative damage as important underlying pathophysiological mechanisms.

Diaphragm dysfunction with congenital cytomegalovirus infection [PDF]

Journal of Perinatology, 2010
Congenital cytomegalovirus infection can cause a wide variety of symptoms. We report three infants with congenital cytomegalovirus infection presenting with respiratory insufficiency associated with persistent diaphragmatic dysfunction. Congenital cytomegalovirus infection should be considered in the differential diagnosis of neonatal diaphragmatic ...
