STUDY OBJECTIVE: To compare recovery times and respiratory complications during emergence after deep extubation using either desflurane alone or a lower concentration of desflurane with remifentanil.
BACKGROUND: Despite a robust physiological rationale, recruitment manoeuvres with PEEP titration were associated with harm in the Alveolar Recruitment for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome Trial (ART). We sought to investigate the potential heterog...
BACKGROUND: Although the mouse is widely used to model human lung development, function, and disease, our understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in alveolarization of the peripheral lung is incomplete. Recently, the Molecular Atlas of Lun...
Diseases like bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) affect the development of the pulmonary vasculature, including the alveolar capillary network (ACN). Since pulmonary development is highly dependent on angiogenesis and microvascular maturation, ACN inve...
