Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), a type of inflammatory respiratory failure seen in about 10% of patients admitted to the intensive care unit, is characterized by pulmonary edema and hypoxemia. Incompetence of the vascular barrier in lung injury leads to increased permeability of the vascular endothelial monolayer, fluid leakage, and alveolar flooding. Even with the best supportive care – the only treatment option available – the mortality rate for ARDS remains a staggering 40%. Our lab has previously demonstrated the feasibility of ultrasound and microbubbles (USMB) to deliver therapeutic cargo to murine lungs in an ARDS model. Here we demonstrated that delivery of claudin-5 and 70kDa dextran could be optimized by modulating ultrasound parameters, microbubble composition and concentration, and determined that USMB may be most effective in delivering small soluble cargo. In conclusion, USMB-mediated delivery to the injured lung can be fine-tuned and may provide a novel treatment approach for ARDS.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not 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.
