Altered muscle transcriptome as molecular basis of long-term muscle weakness in survivors from critical illness
1 Jun 2025
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Critically ill patients requiring intensive care unit (ICU) admission suffer from muscle weakness that persists for years, compromising quality-of-life. The pathophysiology of this long-term weakness remains unclear. We hypothesized that former ICU-patients show a long-term abnormal RNA-expression profile, which may contribute to lower long-term strength and for which modifiable risk factors can be...
