The cause of admission in ICU has been trauma (26%), surgical reasons (18%) and pathological reasons (57%) and it has not been related to the length of mechanical ventilation.
The underlying pathological reasons for this shortcoming as well as promising innovative approaches including gene therapy and local drug delivery of vasoactive substances will be discussed in this review.
Spontaneous, voluntary and reflectory eyeblinks differ in their neural sources and the factors inducing them [27], for example activation, cognitive load, intention, physical irritation or pathological reasons (e.g. blepharospasm).
Even though different mouse strains might die due to different pathological reasons, we mapped survival to a new locus on chromosome 6, (berr6) between Ppar-γ and Tsen2 using genome wide analysis such as HAM and EMMA.
The pathological reasons behind the increased incidence of stillbirth are unknown.
It seems that when H3K9me3 activity is impaired (for physiological or pathological reasons), the Polycomb system is recruited to compensate and maintain a heterochromatic environment.
Other than pathological reasons, HNE was chosen as a triggering molecule due its relative small size (∼29.5 kDa) and ability to penetrate the hydrogel.
Virulence shifts might also play a role in the increased mortality observed after the loss of a lifelong partner, which occurs sometimes without specific pathological reasons [ 43].
Italian jurisprudence dealt with the problem of the relevance and validity of will previously expressed by a patient who, for pathological reasons, is no longer able to express such a will.
However, using a −1 SD cutoff may be overly inclusive, as cognitive performance in healthy older adults often falls below this limit [ 5] for a variety of non-pathological reasons (e.g., fatigue, anxiety).
