چکیده
Erratum Following publication of the original version of our article [1] in Critical Care, it was brought to our attention that there was an error in Table 3. Some of the values are incorrect, including arterial oxygen saturation variables and a standard deviation in arterial carbon dioxide tension (mmHg) control group (24 h after N-acetyl-L-cysteine infusion). The corrected table is presented in this erratum (Table 3). This error does not affect the results or conclusions of the study.

The influence of N-acetyl-L-cystein infusion on cytokine levels and gastric intramucosal pH during severe sepsis
INTRODUCTION The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effects of continuously infused N-acetyl-L-cystein (NAC) on serum cytokine levels and gastric intramucosal pH in humans suffering from severe sepsis. METHODS Fifty-three patients were included in the study. In the NAC group (n = 27), after an initial intravenous bolus of NAC (150 mg/kg over 5 min), a continuous intravenous infu...

Objective- Mechanisms that decrease oxidative stress and enhance peritoneal fibrinolysis reduce adhesions. N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) is an antioxidant whose effect on peritoneal fibrinolysis in large animal model has not been established. The aims of this study were to investigate the ability of NAC to decreased adhesion in stablished model of serosal trauma in sheep. Design- Expe...

The present study determines the efficacy of N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) on marker enzymes, lipid peroxidation and antioxidants in carbon tetrachloride induced hepatotoxicity in rats. Carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) (3 mL/kg/week) administered subcutaneously to albino Wistar rats for a period of three months significantly increased the activities of marker enzymes in plasma such as aspartate transamina...
