Welcome to the 550th Critical Care Reviews Newsletter, bringing you the best critical care research and open access articles from across the medical literature for the week of June 20th to 26th. I'm traveling this week, so will skip the introduction. We're still two newslatters behind. Hopefully, we'll catch up next week.
