Management of primary blast lung injury: a comparison of airway pressure release versus low tidal volume ventilation

open access: yesIntensive Care Medicine Experimental, 2020
Background Primary blast lung injury (PBLI) presents as a syndrome of respiratory distress and haemoptysis resulting from explosive shock wave exposure and is a frequent cause of mortality and morbidity in both military conflicts and terrorist attacks ...

Extravascular lung water correlates multiorgan dysfunction syndrome and mortality in sepsis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
BACKGROUND: This study was designated to investigate whether increased extravascular lung water index (EVLWI) may correlate multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) and mortality in sepsis.

In vitro and in vivo effects of salbutamol on neutrophil function in acute lung injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Background: Intravenous salbutamol (albuterol) reduces lung water in patients with the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Experimental data show that it also reduces pulmonary neutrophil accumulation or activation and inflammation in ARDS ...

A Pilot Study of Wet Lung Using Lung Ultrasound Surface Wave Elastography in an Ex Vivo Swine Lung Model

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
Extravascular lung water (EVLW) is a basic symptom of congestive heart failure and other conditions. Computed tomography (CT) is standard method used to assess EVLW, but it requires ionizing radiation and radiology facilities.

Targeting Itga8 Mitigates Neurogenic Bladder Fibrosis Driven by Trem2⁺ Macrophage‐Derived Fn1 via FAK/RhoA/ROCK Signaling

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Normal bladders exhibit quiescent fibroblasts/macrophages, whereas neurogenic bladders show acute‐phase Itga8⁺ fibroblast expansion driven by Trem2⁺ macrophage‐secreted Fn1, which activates FAK/RhoA/ROCK signaling, promotes cytoskeletal remodeling, and upregulates pro‐fibrotic genes.

EVLW by Lung Ultrasound to Predict Short-Term Post Operative Outcomes in Pediatric Cardiac Surgery - A Prospective Observational Study

open access: yesAnnals of Cardiac Anaesthesia
Background: Extravascular lung water (EVLW) in children undergoing cardiac surgery may affect the outcomes after surgery. The study aimed to evaluate if extravascular lung water assessed by ultrasound could serve as a predictor of short-term ...

Neutrophil swarms require LTB4 and integrins at sites of cell death in vivo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Neutrophil recruitment from blood to extravascular sites of sterile or infectious tissue damage is a hallmark of early innate immune responses, and the molecular events leading to cell exit from the bloodstream have been well defined1,2. Once outside the

The potential of the ultrasound method in diagnosing pulmonary edema in critically ill patients with liver failure

open access: yesТрансплантология (Москва)
Background. Pulmonary edema is a common complication in critically ill patients. The liberal tactics of fluid therapy and pathological accumulation of extravascular lung water increase the risks of mortality in Intensive Care Unit patients.
