Introduction
Acute Lung Injury (ALI) is a clinical syndrome induced by multiple factors, characterized by severe hypoxemia, decreased lung elasticity and significant pulmonary edema. In severe cases, it can progress to Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). As a critical illness commonly seen in Intensive Care Units (ICUs), it has a mortality rate of 40% to 50%. With the growing burden of respiratory diseases and surging demand for drug research and development, the market for ALI models is expanding rapidly at an annual growth rate of 16% to 20%.
Highlights
Today, we conduct a comprehensive analysis of animal models for acute lung injury to facilitate advances in scientific research and clinical understanding.
