HIF1A reduces acute lung injury by optimizing carbohydrate metabolism in the alveolar epithelium.

<h4>Background</h4>While acute lung injury (ALI) contributes significantly to critical illness, it resolves spontaneously in many instances. The majority of patients experiencing ALI require mechanical ventilation. Therefore, we hypothesized that mechanical ventilation and concomitant st...
