Objective: Volutrauma and atelectrauma promote ventilator-induced lung injury, but their
relative contribution to inflammation in ventilator-induced lung injury is not well established …

Objectives: Regional tidal lung strain may trigger local inflammation during mechanical
ventilation, particularly when additional inflammatory stimuli are present. However, it is …

We thought that the rate of postoperative pulmonary complications might be higher after
pressure‐controlled ventilation than after volume‐controlled ventilation. We analysed peri …

Parenchymal strain is a key determinant of lung injury produced by mechanical ventilation.
However, imaging estimates of volumetric tidal strain (ε= regional tidal volume/reference …

Objectives: To determine the impact of positive end-expiratory pressure during mechanical
ventilation with and without spontaneous breathing activity on regional lung inflammation in …

Background Lung protective ventilation strategies utilizing lower tidal volumes per predicted
body weight (PBW) and positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) have been suggested to be …

Non-uniform distribution of inspired gas within the lung, termed ventilation heterogeneity, is
present in patients with even mild asthma. Current evidence strongly supports ventilation …

Atelectasis is a frequent clinical condition, yet knowledge is limited and controversial on its
biological contribution towards lung injury. We assessed the regional proteomics of …
