acute lung injury model in respiratory medicine.

Hence, the blood bank has circulated instructions to all wards and operation theaters with "dos and don'ts." The western literature shows 0.014-0.08% risk of transfusion-related
acute lung injury (TRALI) [9] and the low incidence may be because of failure of recognition of the condition.

Here, our in vivo study also provided evidence that the blockage of this ligand-receptor axis by CCR antagonists not only effectively reduces the levels of inflammatory cytokines but also reduces chemokines, which, overall, attenuates
acute lung injury symptoms in LPS-induced ALI rat model.

Previous studies by others [25-27] and ourselves [28-30] have shown that mitochondrial transfusion effectively protects against acute organ damage, including sepsis-induced
acute lung injury [13, 25], acute ischemia-reperfusion injury of the heart [27], liver [26, 28], and lung [30], and monocrotaline-induced pulmonary arterial hypertension [29].
ARDS (with mild ARDS being a term for
acute lung injury (ALI)) is defined as an "acute diffuse, inflammatory lung injury" caused by primary pulmonary factors (e.g., pneumonia and pulmonary contusion) or secondary harmful events (e.g., polytrauma, shock, burns, and aspiration) [105, 106].
(3) Because of overlapping criteria applied to the definition of
acute lung injury (ALI) and ARDS, the Berlin definition of ARDS emphasizes 3 ARDS categories--mild, moderate, and severe--based on the degree of hypoxemia.
Each arrived at the emergency department of Andree Rosemon General Hospital in Cayenne with a rapid onset of
acute lung injury requiring admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) for intubation and mechanical ventilation.
In writing this article, we specifically hoped to raise awareness about the pulmonary manifestations and treatment of
acute lung injury after paraquat ingestion.

acute lung injury. Am J Respir Crit Care Med2015;152:1818-1824.
ARDS is a severe form of
acute lung injury that occurs as a complication of diverse insults, including sepsis, massive aspiration, and trauma; it has a mortality rate of 30 percent to 50 percent, even with state-of-the-art modern medical care in an intensive care unit (Villar et al.
