Abstract
Sepsis is a potentially life-threatening condition recognized as a global health priority by the World Health Organization. Survivors who develop intensive care unit-acquired weakness (ICUAW) often face long-term motor and functional deficits that significantly impact their quality of life. Although some studies have investigated the mechanisms underlying ICUAW and its long-term effects, much remains unknown. Further research into ICUAW is therefore essential to gain a comprehensive understanding of this phenomenon, which may guide the development of effective treatments to restore patients' quality of life.
期刊介绍:
m/s offers high-quality review articles in French, covering all areas of biomedical and health research, in a monthly magazine format (10 issues / year). m/s is read by the whole French-speaking community, in France but also in Belgium, Switzerland, Canada, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia etc. m/s is not a primary publication, and thus will not consider unpublished data. Most articles are invited by the Editors, but spontaneous proposals are welcomed. Each issue combines news and views on the most recent scientific publications, as well as broadly accessible and updated review articles on a specific topic, and essays on science and society, history of science, public health, or reactions to published articles. Each year, m/s also publishes one or two thematic issues focused on a research topic of high interest. All review articles and essays are peer-reviewed.
