Mechanical ventilation of isolated septic rat lungs: effects on surfactant and inflammatory cytokines
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The effects of mechanical ventilation (MV) on the surfactant system and cytokine secretion were studied in isolated septic rat lungs. At 23 h after sham surgery or induction of sepsis by cecal ligation and perforation (CLP), lungs were excised and randomized to one of three groups: 1) a nonventilated group, 2) a group subjected to 1 h of noninjurious MV (tidal volume = 10 ml/kg, positive end-expiratory pressure = 3 cmH(2)O), or 3) a group subjected to 1 h of injurious MV (tidal volume = 20 ml/kg, positive end-expiratory pressure = 0 cmH(2)O). Nonventilated sham and CLP lungs had similar compliance, normal lung morphology, surfactant, and cytokine concentrations. Injurious ventilation decreased compliance, altered surfactant, increased cytokines, and induced morphological changes compared with nonventilation in sham and CLP lungs. In these lungs, the surfactant system was similar in sham and CLP lungs; however, tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-6 levels were significantly higher in CLP lungs. We conclude that injurious ventilation altered surfactant independent of sepsis and that the CLP lungs were predisposed to the secretion of larger amounts of cytokines because of ventilation.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
