A pilot observational study by Weber-Carstens and colleagues contributes to a mechanistic explanation of the puzzling and complex phenomena of ICU-acquired weakness (ICU-AW). The authors suggest systemic, inflammatory-mediated pathology is the most significant risk factor for ICU-AW. While this finding is somewhat equivocal, it provides important direction for future investigations and illustrates the challenges of interpreting significance in small observational studies.
