Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) is a ubiquitous iatrogenic clinical problem in critical care. Aside from avoiding large tidal volumes, little progress has been made in identifying effective clinical strategies to minimize this injury. With recent rapid development in bioinformatics and high-throughput molecular technology, the genetic basis of lung injury has been intensively...
