Bench-to-bedside review: High-mobility group box 1 and critical illness.

abstract：BACKGROUND:In patients intubated for mechanical ventilation, prolonged diaphragm inactivity could lead to weakness and poor outcome. Time to resume a minimal diaphragm activity may be related to sedation practice and patient severity. METHODS:Prospective observational study in critically ill patients. Diaphragm electr...
