Mechanical ventilation in fiberoptic-bronchoscopy: comparison between high frequency positive pressure ventilation and normal frequency positive pressure ventilation.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:To investigate whether inhibition of cyclooxygenase-2, a critical component of the inflammatory pathway, is neuroprotective in a neonatal rat model of cerebral hypoxia-ischemia. The development of brain inflammation largely contributes to neonatal brain injury that may lead to a lifetime of neurologic deficit...
