Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to predict exhaled air patterns in patients on mechanical ventilation to help diagnose ventilator-associated pneumonia.
- Conducted with 83 ICU patients, researchers collected air samples and categorized them into two groups: those with and without ventilator-associated pneumonia.
- Results showed that specific air patterns from the first 12 hours of ventilation could predict pneumonia, but later samples were not effective in assessing severity or timing of the condition.
The present study aimed to evaluate the potential and specificity of the inflammatory and antioxidant response of Microbe-Associated Molecular Patterns (MAMPs) in NIH-3T3 fibroblast cells, as well as in the healing process of skin wounds. Cells (NIH-3T3) were cultivated in supplemented specific medium. NIH-3T3 cells were treated with MAMPs (Bifidobacterium lactis or Lactobacillus casei or Lactobacillus gasseri or Lactobacillus paracasei or Streptococcus thermophilus), at two concentrations and insulted with LPS or HO.
