Nuclear factor-kappaB activation in peripheral blood mononuclear cells in children with sepsis.

abstract：:Capnography is a valuable tool in the management of cardiac arrest, since end-tidal CO2 (PetCO2) correlates well with cardiac output and there are no other suitable noninvasive ways to measure this important variable during resuscitation. Animal studies also suggest that PetCO2 correlates well with the likelihood of r...
