2019-11-25
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background: Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase (NOX) enzymes play important roles in generating reactive oxygen species; in particular, NOX4 plays a distinct role in regulating lung inflammation and apoptosis. <h4>Methods:</h4> We determined whether plasma NOX4 level can be used as a prognostic biomarker to guide weaning from mechanical ventilation. Plasma level...
