Het voorkomen van niet-overdraagbare ziekten veroorzaakt door de postacute fase van covid-19-infectie KU Leuven

Survival of the Fittest: over hoe het herstel van een kritieke ziekte kan worden verbeterd door te leren van evolutionair geconserveerde katabole pathways. KU Leuven
Since a few decades, human patients who suffer from severe illnesses or multiple trauma, conditions that were previously lethal, are being treated in intensive care units (ICUs). Modern intensive care medicine bridges patients from life-threatening conditions to recovery with use of mechanical devices, vasoactive drugs and powerful anti-microbial agents. By postponing death, a new unnatural condition, intensive-care-dependent prolonged (>1 ...
