HDL dysfunction may worsen septic ALI; leaves open whether restoring HDL composition improves clinical outcomes.
Does HDL from septic ARDS patients aggravate acute lung injury compared to normal HDL?
Sepsis induces adverse remodeling of HDL quality, which exacerbates acute lung injury by promoting pulmonary endothelial dysfunction.
