High Doses of Inhaled Nitric Oxide as an Innovative Antimicrobial Strategy for Lung Infections
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Since the designation of nitric oxide as "Molecule of the Year" in 1992, the scientific and clinical discoveries concerning this biomolecule have been greatly expanding. Currently, therapies enhancing the release of endogenous nitric oxide or the direct delivery of the exogenous compound are recognized as valuable pharmacological treatments in several disorders. In particular, the administration of inhaled nitric oxide is routinely used to treat patients with pulmonary hypertension or refractory hypoxemia. More recently, inhaled nitric oxide has been studied as a promising antimicrobial treatment strategy against a range of pathogens, including resistant bacterial and fungal infections of the respiratory system. Pre-clinical and clinical findings have demonstrated that, at doses greater than 160 ppm, nitric oxide has antimicrobial properties and can be used to kill a broad range of infectious microorganisms. This review focused on the mechanism of action and current evidence from in vitro studies, animal models and human clinical trials of inhaled high-dose nitric oxide as an innovative antimicrobial therapy for lung infections.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
