Sepsis Disrupts Mitochondrial Function and Diaphragm Morphology

BackgroundThe diaphragm is the primary muscle of inspiration, and its dysfunction is frequent during sepsis.However, the mechanisms associated with sepsis and diaphragm dysfunction are not well understood.In this study, we evaluated the morphophysiological changes of the mitochondrial diaphragm 5 days after sepsis induction.MethodsMale C57Bl/6 mice
