Protection of lung oxidative injury by remote ischemic preconditioning: a study of exhaled water during pulmonary lobectomy

We thank the editor for inviting editorial on our recent publication. We have read with great interest the editorial of Prunier and Mirebeau-Prunier about our recently published study on remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) in patients undergoing pulmonary lobectomy for lung cancer (1). We agree with all the aspects treated, but I would like to add some comments that can provide some information on this matter.
