Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs in almost 50% of patients treated in intensive care units. AKI mainly occurs after sepsis, acute ischemia, nephrotoxicity or hypoxia and leads to severe damage of the kidney and to an increased risk of mortality. The diagnosis of AKI is currently based on creatinine,

OSA is a common sleep disorder characterized by repeated collapse of the upper airway during sleep causing bouts of hypercapnia and hypoxia, typically followed by arousal, hyperventilation and a subsequent apnea. The resultant swings in blood gases and fragmented sleep have been associated with

This study would consist of 170 burn patients with documented smoke inhalation injury who will be randomized to receive either standard care alone (control group) or standard care plus heparin nebulization in combination with intravenously administrated fresh frozen plasma (study group). Standard

This study will determine if modulating reduction/oxidation (redox) status through a temporary increase in the blood ratio of reduced-to-oxidized glutathione (i.e., GSH/GSSG) will increase carotid body chemosensitivity and thus increase ventilation and arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2) during 32

With the wide use of contrast agents in clinical diagnosis and treatment, contrast induced nephropathy(CIN) accounts for 1/3 of hospital acquired acute renal failure,leading to prolonged hospital stay and increased medical costs.The mortality rate of patients with CIN is up to 35%,and about 30%
