Mutations conferring new patterns of sensitivity to volatile anesthetics in Caenorhabditis elegans.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a devastating condition with an estimated mortality exceeding 30%. There are data suggesting risk factors for ARDS development in high-risk populations, but few data are available in lower incidence populations. Using risk-matched analysis and a combination of cl...
