Advancements in methods, technology, and our understanding of the pathobiology of lung
injury have created the need to update the definition of experimental acute lung injury (ALI) …

Acute lung injury (ALI) is well defined in humans, but there is no agreement as to the main
features of acute lung injury in animal models. A Committee was organized to determine the …

Acute lung injury (ALI) is a syndrome that is characterised by acute inflammation and tissue
injury that affects normal gas exchange in the lungs. Hallmarks of ALI include dysfunction of …

Previous animal models of acute lung injury (ALI) are limited as they only reproduce part of
the complex pathobiology of clinical ALI. Here we develop a translational mouse model of …

The ability of the lung to perform gas exchange is made possible in part by the effective
relationship between the alveolar epithelium and the endothelium of the pulmonary …

In 2005, the American Thoracic Society marks its 100th year of existence. For over a third of
this span, since 1967, clinicians and investigators have struggled with a common, often …

Acute lung injury (ALI) and its more severe form, the acute respiratory distress syndrome
(ARDS), are syndromes of acute respiratory failure that result from acute pulmonary edema …

Acute lung injury in humans is characterized histopathologically by neutrophilic alveolitis,
injury of the alveolar epithelium and endothelium, hyaline membrane formation, and …

The first report of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) was published in 1967, and
even now acute lung injury (ALI) and ARDS are severe forms of diffuse lung disease that …
