Description:
Progressing from general scientific principles and concepts to in-depth topical discussions of current research and treatment methods, this comprehensive reference defines the cellular and molecular mechanisms contributing to inflammatory lung injury and repair. Basic science perspectives are closely integrated with state of the art coverage of current and evolving clinical therapies for lung injury, including specific chapters on ventilation, anti-inflammatory, surfactant, antioxidant, vascular, gene, and combined-modality therapies.
