Suppressing NF-κB and NKRF Pathways by Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell Therapy in Mice with Ventilator-Induced Lung Injury. [PDF]
BACKGROUNDHigh-tidal-volume mechanical ventilation used in patients with acute lung injury (ALI) can induce the release of inflammatory cytokines, as macrophage inflammatory protein-2 (MIP-2), recruitment of neutrophils, and disruption of alveolar ...

Monitoring of lung edema by microwave reflectometry during lung ischemia-reperfusion injury in vivo [PDF]
It is still unclear whether lung edema can be monitored by microwave reflectometry and whether the measured changes in lung dry matter content (DMC) are accompanied by changes in PaO(2) and in pro-to anti-inflammatory cytokine expression (IFN-gamma and ...

Mechanisms of Lung Injury in a Mouse Model of Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia [PDF]
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a chronic lung disease that affects preterm infants. Increased levels of inflammatory mediators in the amniotic fluid and in the lungs of preterm infants are associated with the development of BPD.

Favorable outcome with early initiation of VV-ECMO for unilateral lung disease in children
Unilateral lung diseases such as unilateral pneumonia, trauma or pulmonary hemorrhage can cause profound hypoxemic respiratory failure necessitating mechanical ventilation. These disorders are characterized by marked asymmetry in lung mechanics, with the

Understanding the mechanisms of ventilator-induced lung injury using animal models
Mechanical ventilation is a life-saving therapy in several clinical situations, promoting gas exchange and providing rest to the respiratory muscles. However, mechanical ventilation may cause hemodynamic instability and pulmonary structural damage, which

The Beta Agonist Lung Injury TrIal (BALTI) : prevention trial protocol [PDF]
Background: Acute lung injury complicates approximately 25-30% of subjects undergoing oesophagectomy. Experimental studies suggest that treatment with beta agonists may prevent the development of acute lung injury by decreasing inflammatory cell ...

Lung-Cardiovascular Interactions and Derangements in ARDS. [PDF]
This review proposes an anatomical near‐ and far‐field framework for lung‐cardiovascular interactions in ARDS. Grounded in pathological and biological studies, the evidence spans pulmonary vascular, right ventricular, and systemic endothelial derangements and reviews available evidence for targeted therapies.

Bixin protects mice against ventilation-induced lung injury in an NRF2-dependent manner
Mechanical ventilation (MV) is a therapeutic intervention widely used in the clinic to assist patients that have difficulty breathing due to lung edema, trauma, or general anesthesia.

Superimposed high-frequency jet ventilation combined with continuous positive airway pressure/assisted spontaneous breathing improves oxygenation in patients with H1N1-associated ARDS [PDF]
Background: Numerous cases of swine-origin 2009 H1N1 influenza A virus (H1N1)-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) bridged by extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) therapy have been reported; however, complication rates are high. We
