Neuregulin-1 as a potentially novel biomarker in acute respiratory distress syndrome.
T he investigation of biomarkers in clinical studies can provide insights into mechanistic pathways about a disease or condition, and may help identify potentially novel therapeutic strategies or inform about prognosis or disease progression. In this issue of the European Respiratory Journal, FINIGAN et al. [1] show that high levels of neuregulin-1, a potentially novel biomarker for lung injury...

BACKGROUND Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a disease associated with a high mortality rate. The initial phase is characterized by induction of inflammatory cytokines and chemokines and influx of circulating inflammatory cells, including macrophages which play a pivotal role in the innate and adaptive immune responses to injury. Growing evidence points to phenotypic heterogeneity a...

Lung protection strategy as an effective treatment in acute respiratory distress syndrome
متن کاملAcute respiratory distress syndrome.
The acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a serious and complex clinical problem that often threatens the lives of patients. Emerging clinical data suggest that the survival of patients with this disorder may have improved during the last two decades, presumably because of advances in supportive medical care. Among the supportive therapies used to treat patients with ARDS, none is more ...
متن کاملAcute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
ACUTE RESPIRATORY DISTRESS SYNDROME (ARDS) is a clinical condition characterized by impaired gas exchange as a result of the accumulation of edema in the alveolar space. The clinical management of ARDS patients includes mechanical ventilation with high oxygen concentrations. Mechanical ventilation alleviates the work of breathing and hypoxemia while allowing time for the lungs to recover from t...
