Increased circulating microRNA-122 is associated with mortality and acute liver injury in the acute respiratory distress syndrome

Abstract Background Acute liver injury in patients with ARDS decreases survival but early stages may be easily missed due to the lack of sufficient biomarkers signalling its onset. Accordingly, we tested in ARDS patients the hypotheses that microRNA-122, the foremost liver-related microRNA (miR), 1)...
