Purpose Critical illness survivors commonly have impaired physical functioning. Physical
therapy interventions delivered in the intensive care unit can reduce these impairments, but the …

The remodeling of the larval fat body is observed in many insects during metamorphosis,
but little is known about the physiological importance or the regulation of this process. In …

Objectives: With decreasing mortality in PICUs, a growing number of survivors experience
long-lasting physical impairments. Early physical rehabilitation and mobilization during critical …

Purpose The purpose was to evaluate the feasibility and safety of in-bed cycle ergometry as
part of routine intensive care unit (ICU) physical therapist (PT) practice. Materials and …

During metamorphosis, holometabolous insects eliminate obsolete larval tissues via programmed
cell death. In contrast, tissues required for further development are retained and often …
