Breath-by-breath comparison of a novel percutaneous phrenic nerve stimulation approach with mechanical ventilation in juvenile pigs: a pilot study. Sci Rep 2024; 14:10252.

Abstract
About one in three critically ill patients requires mechanical ventilation (MV). Prolonged MV, however, results in diaphragmatic weakness, which itself is associated with delayed weaning and increased mortality. Inducing active diaphragmatic contraction via electrical phrenic nerve stimulation (PNS) not only provides the potential to reduce diaphragmatic muscular atrophy but also generates physiological-like ventilation and therefore offers a promising alternative to MV. Reasons why PNS is not yet used in critical care medicine are high procedural invasiveness, insufficient evidence, and lack of side-by-side comparison to MV. This study aims to establish a minimal-invasive percutaneous, bilateral electrode placement approach for sole PNS breathing and thereby enable, for the first time, a breath-by-breath comparison to MV. Six juvenile German Landrace pigs received general anesthesia and orotracheal intubation. Following the novel ultrasound-guided, landmark-based, 4-step approach, two echogenic needles per phrenic nerve were successfully placed. Stimulation effectiveness was evaluated measuring tidal volume, diaphragmatic thickening and tomographic electrical impedance in a breath-by-breath comparison to MV. Following sufficient bilateral phrenic nerve stimulation in all pigs, PNS breaths showed a 2.2-fold increase in diaphragmatic thickening. It induced tidal volumes in the lung-protective range by negative pressure inspiration and improved dorso-caudal regional ventilation in contrast to MV. Our study demonstrated the feasibility of a novel ultrasound-guided, percutaneous phrenic nerve stimulation approach, which generated sufficient tidal volumes and showed more resemblance to physiological breathing than MV in a breath-by-breath comparison.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation (MV) is an essential life-saving technique, but prolonged MV can cause significant diaphragmatic dysfunction due to atrophy and decreased contractility of the diaphragm fibres, called ventilator-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction (VIDD). It is not clear about the mechanism of occurrence and prevention measures of VIDD. Irisin is a newly discovered muscle factor that regulates energy metabolism. Studies have shown that irisin can exhibit protective effects by downregulating endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in a variety of diseases; whether irisin plays a protective role in VIDD has not been reported. Sprague-Dawley rats were mechanically ventilated to construct a VIDD model, and intervention was performed by intravenous administration of irisin. Diaphragm contractility, degree of atrophy, cross-sectional areas (CSAs), ER stress markers, AMPK protein expression, oxidative stress indicators and apoptotic cell levels were measured at the end of the experiment.Our findings showed that as the duration of ventilation increased, the more severe the VIDD was, the degree of ER stress increased, and the expression of irisin decreased.ER stress may be one of the causes of VIDD. Intervention with irisin ameliorated VIDD by reducing the degree of ER stress, attenuating oxidative stress, and decreasing the apoptotic index. MV decreases the expression of phosphorylated AMPK in the diaphragm, whereas the use of irisin increases the expression of phosphorylated AMPK. Irisin may exert its protective effect by activating the phosphorylated AMPK pathway.

Abstract
Our study investigates the post-mortem findings of the diaphragm's muscular structural changes in mechanically ventilated COVID-19 patients. Diaphragm samples of the right side from 42 COVID-19 critically ill patients were analyzed and correlated with the type and length of mechanical ventilation (MV), ventilatory parameters, prone positioning, and use of sedative drugs. The mean number of fibers was 550±626. The cross-sectional area was 4120±3280 μm2, while the muscular fraction was 0.607±0.126. The overall population was clustered into two distinct populations (clusters 1 and 2). Cluster 1 showed a lower percentage of slow myosin fiber and higher fast fiber content than cluster 2, 68% versus 82%, p<0.00001, and 29.8% versus 18.8%, p=0.00045 respectively. The median duration of MV was 180 (41-346) hours. In cluster 1, a relationship between assisted ventilation and fast myosin fiber percentage (R2=-0.355, p=0.014) was found. In cluster 2, fast fiber content increased with increasing the length of the controlled MV (R2=0.446, p=0.006). A high grade of fibrosis was reported. Cluster 1 was characterized by fibers' atrophy and cluster 2 by hypertrophy, supposing different effects of ventilation on the diaphragm but without excluding a possible direct viral effect on diaphragmatic fibers.

Abstract
Ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction is gaining increased recognition. Evidence of diaphragm weakness can manifest within 12 h to a few days after the initiation of mechanical ventilation. Various noninvasive and invasive methods have been developed to assess diaphragm function. The implementation of diaphragm-protective ventilation strategies is crucial for preventing diaphragm injuries. Furthermore, diaphragm neurostimulation emerges as a promising and novel treatment option. In this rapid review, our objective is to discuss the current understanding of ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction, diagnostic approaches, and updates on strategies for prevention and management.

Cellular senescence contributes to mechanical ventilation-induced diaphragm dysfunction by upregulating p53 signalling pathways. BMC Pulm Med 2023; 23:509. [PMID: 38097957 PMCID: PMC10722656 DOI: 10.1186/s12890-023-02662-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/09/2023] [Accepted: 09/15/2023] [Indexed: 12/17/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Mechanical ventilation can cause acute atrophy and injury in the diaphragm, which are related to adverse clinical results. However, the underlying mechanisms of ventilation-induced diaphragm dysfunction (VIDD) have not been well elucidated. The current study aimed to explore the role of cellular senescence in VIDD. METHODS A total of twelve New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into 2 groups: (1) spontaneously breathing anaesthetized animals (the CON group) and (2) mechanically ventilated animals (for 48 h) in V-ACV mode (the MV group). Respiratory parameters were collected during ventilation. Diaphragm were collected for further analyses. RESULTS Compared to those in the CON group, the percentage and density of sarcomere disruption in the MV group were much higher (p < 0.001, both). The mRNA expression of MAFbx and MuRF1 was upregulated in the MV group (p = 0.003 and p = 0.006, respectively). Compared to that in the CON group, the expression of MAFbx and MuRF1 detected by western blotting was also upregulated (p = 0.02 and p = 0.03, respectively). Moreover, RNA-seq showed that genes associated with senescence were remarkably enriched in the MV group. The mRNA expression of related genes was further verified by q-PCR (Pai1: p = 0.009; MMP9: p = 0.008). Transverse cross-sections of diaphragm myofibrils in the MV group showed more intensive positive staining of SA-βGal than those in the CON group. p53-p21 axis signalling was elevated in the MV group. The mRNA expression of p53 and p21 was significantly upregulated (p = 0.02 and p = 0.05, respectively). The western blot results also showed upregulation of p53 and p21 protein expression (p = 0.03 and p = 0.05, respectively). Moreover, the p21-positive staining in immunofluorescence and immunohistochemistry in the MV group was much more intense than that in the CON group (p < 0.001, both). CONCLUSIONS In a rabbit model, we demonstrated that mechanical ventilation in A/C mode for 48 h can still significantly induce ultrastructural damage and atrophy of the diaphragm. Moreover, p53-dependent senescence might play a role in mechanical ventilation-induced dysfunction. These findings might provide novel therapeutic targets for VIDD.

Abstract
Prolonged controlled mechanical ventilation (CMV) can cause diaphragm fiber atrophy and inspiratory muscle weakness, resulting in diaphragmatic contractile dysfunction, called ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction (VIDD). VIDD is associated with higher rates of in-hospital deaths, nosocomial pneumonia, difficulty weaning from ventilators, and increased costs. Currently, appropriate clinical strategies to prevent and treat VIDD are unavailable, necessitating the importance of exploring the mechanisms of VIDD and suitable treatment options to reduce the healthcare burden. Numerous animal studies have demonstrated that ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction is associated with oxidative stress, increased protein hydrolysis, disuse atrophy, and calcium ion disorders. Therefore, this article summarizes the molecular pathogenesis and treatment of ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction in recent years so that it can be better served clinically and is essential to reduce the duration of mechanical ventilation use, intensive care unit (ICU) length of stay, and the medical burden.

Abstract
Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) is associated with cytokine storm and is characterized by acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and pneumonia problems. The respiratory system is a place of inappropriate activation of the immune system in people with multiple sclerosis (MS), and this may cause damage to the lung and worsen both MS and infections.The concerns for patients with multiple sclerosis are because of an enhance risk of infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The MS patients pose challenges in this pandemic situation, because of the regulatory defect of autoreactivity of the immune system and neurological and respiratory tract symptoms. In this review, we first indicate respiratory issues associated with both diseases. Then, the main mechanisms inducing lung damages and also impairing the respiratory muscles in individuals with both diseases is discussed. At the end, the leading role of physical exercise on mitigating respiratory issues inducing mechanisms is meticulously evaluated.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation (MV) is a life-saving respiratory support therapy, but MV can lead to diaphragm muscle injury (myotrauma) and induce diaphragmatic dysfunction (DD). DD is relevant because it is highly prevalent and associated with significant adverse outcomes, including prolonged ventilation, weaning failures, and mortality. The main mechanisms involved in the occurrence of myotrauma are associated with inadequate MV support in adapting to the patient’s respiratory effort (over- and under-assistance) and as a result of patient-ventilator asynchrony (PVA). The recognition of these mechanisms associated with myotrauma forced the development of myotrauma prevention strategies (MV with diaphragm protection), mainly based on titration of appropriate levels of inspiratory effort (to avoid over- and under-assistance) and to avoid PVA. Protecting the diaphragm during MV therefore requires the use of tools to monitor diaphragmatic effort and detect PVA. Diaphragm ultrasound is a non-invasive technique that can be used to monitor diaphragm function, to assess PVA, and potentially help to define diaphragmatic effort with protective ventilation. This review aims to provide clinicians with an overview of the relevance of DD and the main mechanisms underlying myotrauma, as well as the most current strategies aimed at minimizing the occurrence of myotrauma with special emphasis on the role of ultrasound in monitoring diaphragm function.

Abstract
Sepsis-associated muscle wasting (SAMW) is characterized by decreased muscle mass, reduced muscle fiber size, and decreased muscle strength, resulting in persistent physical disability accompanied by sepsis. Systemic inflammatory cytokines are the main cause of SAMW, which occurs in 40-70% of patients with sepsis. The pathways associated with the ubiquitin-proteasome and autophagy systems are particularly activated in the muscle tissues during sepsis and may lead to muscle wasting. Additionally, expression of muscle atrophy-related genes Atrogin-1 and MuRF-1 are seemingly increased via the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. In clinical settings, electrical muscular stimulation, physiotherapy, early mobilization, and nutritional support are used for patients with sepsis to prevent or treat SAMW. However, there are no pharmacological treatments for SAMW, and the underlying mechanisms are still unknown. Therefore, research is urgently required in this field.

Abstract
In clinical conditions such as diaphragm paralysis or mechanical ventilation, disuse-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction (DIDD) is a condition that poses a threat to life. MuRF1 is a key E3-ligase involved in regulating skeletal muscle mass, function, and metabolism, which contributes to the onset of DIDD. We investigated if the small-molecule mediated inhibition of MuRF1 activity (MyoMed-205) protects against early DIDD after 12 h of unilateral diaphragm denervation. Wistar rats were used in this study to determine the compound's acute toxicity and optimal dosage. For potential DIDD treatment efficacy, diaphragm contractile function and fiber cross-sectional area (CSA) were evaluated. Western blotting investigated potential mechanisms underlying MyoMed-205's effects in early DIDD. Our results indicate 50 mg/kg bw MyoMed-205 as a suitable dosage to prevent early diaphragmatic contractile dysfunction and atrophy following 12 h of denervation without detectable signs of acute toxicity. Mechanistically, treatment did not affect disuse-induced oxidative stress (4-HNE) increase, whereas phosphorylation of (ser632) HDAC4 was normalized. MyoMed-205 also mitigated FoxO1 activation, inhibited MuRF2, and increased phospho (ser473) Akt protein levels. These findings may suggest that MuRF1 activity significantly contributes to early DIDD pathophysiology. Novel strategies targeting MuRF1 (e.g., MyoMed-205) have potential therapeutic applications for treating early DIDD.

Intensive Care Unit Acquired Weakness Is Associated with Rapid Changes to Skeletal Muscle Proteostasis. Cells 2022; 11:cells11244005. [PMID: 36552769 PMCID: PMC9776723 DOI: 10.3390/cells11244005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2022] [Revised: 11/21/2022] [Accepted: 11/28/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Intensive care unit (ICU)-acquired weakness is a frequent consequence of critical illness that impacts both the limb and respiratory muscles. The cause of ICU-acquired weakness is multifactorial, but both prolonged limb muscle inactivity and mechanical ventilation are risk factors for muscle wasting, which predisposes ICU patients to both short-term complications and long-term disabilities resulting from muscle weakness. Unfortunately, the current research does not provide a detailed understanding of the cellular etiology of ICU-acquired weakness, and no standard treatment exists. Therefore, improving knowledge of the mechanisms promoting muscle atrophy in critically ill patients is essential to developing therapeutic strategies to protect against ICU-induced skeletal muscle wasting. To advance our understanding of the mechanism(s) responsible for ICU-acquired weakness, we tested the hypothesis that ICU-induced muscle inactivity promotes a rapid decrease in anabolic signaling/protein synthesis and accelerates proteolysis in both limb and respiratory muscles. To investigate ICU-induced changes in skeletal muscle proteostasis, adult Sprague Dawley rats were anesthetized and mechanically ventilated for 12 h to simulate ICU care. Measurements of anabolic signaling, protein synthesis, and proteolytic activity in the limb muscles (plantaris and soleus) and respiratory muscles (parasternal and intercostal) revealed ICU-induced reductions in both anabolic signaling (i.e., AKT/mTOR pathway) and muscle protein synthesis. Moreover, simulated ICU care resulted in increased biomarkers of accelerated proteolysis in both limb and respiratory muscles. These novel findings reveal that disturbances in limb and respiratory muscle proteostasis occur rapidly during ICU-induced muscle inactivity, irrespective of the muscle function or muscle fiber type.

Low Intensity Respiratory Muscle Training in COVID-19 Patients after Invasive Mechanical Ventilation: A Retrospective Case-Series Study. Biomedicines 2022; 10:2807. [PMID: 36359327 PMCID: PMC9687222 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines10112807] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/01/2022] [Revised: 10/26/2022] [Accepted: 11/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022] Open
Abstract
Worldwide, healthcare systems had to respond to an exponential increase in COVID-19 patients with a noteworthy increment in intensive care units (ICU) admissions and invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV). The aim was to determine low intensity respiratory muscle training (RMT) effects in COVID-19 patients upon medical discharge and after an ICU stay with IMV. A retrospective case-series study was performed. Forty COVID-19 patients were enrolled and divided into twenty participants who received IMV during ICU stay (IMV group) and 20 participants who did not receive IMV nor an ICU stay (non-IMV group). Maximal expiratory pressure (PEmax), maximal inspiratory pressure (PImax), COPD assessment test (CAT) and Medical Research Council (MRC) dyspnea scale were collected at baseline and after 12 weeks of low intensity RMT. A greater MRC dyspnea score and lower PImax were shown at baseline in the IMV group versus the non-IMV group (p < 0.01). RMT effects on the total sample improved all outcome measurements (p < 0.05; d = 0.38−0.98). Intragroup comparisons after RMT improved PImax, CAT and MRC scores in the IMV group (p = 0.001; d = 0.94−1.09), but not for PImax in the non-IMV group (p > 0.05). Between-groups comparison after RMT only showed MRC dyspnea improvements (p = 0.020; d = 0.74) in the IMV group versus non-IMV group. Furthermore, PImax decrease was only predicted by the IMV presence (R2 = 0.378). Low intensity RMT may improve respiratory muscle strength, health related quality of life and dyspnea in COVID-19 patients. Especially, low intensity RMT could improve dyspnea level and maybe PImax in COVID-19 patients who received IMV in ICU.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle fibers are malleable and undergo rapid remodeling in response to increased contractile activity (i.e., exercise) or prolonged periods of muscle inactivity (e.g., prolonged bedrest). Exploration of the cell signaling pathways regulating these skeletal muscle adaptations reveal that redox signaling pathways play a key role in the control of muscle remodeling during both exercise and prolonged muscle inactivity. In this regard, muscular exercise results in an acute increase in the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the contracting fibers; however, this contraction-induced rise in ROS production rapidly declines when contractions cease. In contrast, prolonged muscle disuse results in a chronic elevation in ROS production within the inactive fibers. This difference in the temporal pattern of ROS production in muscle during exercise and muscle inactivity stimulates divergent cell-signaling pathways that activate both genomic and nongenomic mechanisms to promote muscle remodeling. This review examines the role that redox signaling plays in skeletal muscle adaptation in response to both prolonged muscle inactivity and endurance exercise training. We begin with a summary of the sites of ROS production in muscle fibers followed by a review of the cellular antioxidants that are responsible for regulation of ROS levels in the cell. We then discuss the specific redox-sensitive signaling pathways that promote skeletal muscle adaptation in response to both prolonged muscle inactivity and exercise. To stimulate future research, we close with a discussion of unanswered questions in this exciting field.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Children should be weaned from the ventilator once their clinical condition improves. Extubation failure is associated with poorer clinical outcomes in children. Predictive indicators of successful extubation are needed. This study aims to evaluate the predictive value of ultrasonographic diaphragm imaging could help predict weaning success. METHODS In this prospective, observational study conducted between March and December 2021, children between 1 month and 10 years of age who were mechanically ventilated for more than 48 h were included. Diaphragm ultrasound (DUS) examinations were performed at the end of 2-h extubation readiness test (ERT). The end-inspiratory thickness (DTi), end-expiratory thickness (DTe), diaphragmatic thickening fraction (DTF), diaphragmatic excursion (DE), inspiratory slope (IS), and expiratory slope (ES) were evaluated. RESULTS Twenty-four (60%) patients were successfully extubated, while 16 (40%) required invasive or noninvasive mechanical ventilation support which were classified as failed extubation group. Three of the sixteen patients in the failed extubation group required reintubation. DTF was significantly greater in the successful weaning group (55.05 ± 23.75% vs. 30.9 ± 10.38%) (p < 0.001). DE was significantly greater in the successful weaning group (14 ± 4.4 mm vs. 11.05 ± 3.25 mm) (p < 0.001). DTF and DE were found to have a sensitivity and specificity of 91.67%, 87.50%, 83.33%, and 81.25%, respectively. CONCLUSION Diaphragm ultrasound is a feasible and promising tool to guide physicians during weaning from invasive mechanical ventilation. Among all DUS measurements, the DE and DTF indexes showed better performance in extubation failure than other diaphragmatic parameters.

Abstract
New methods to prevent ventilator-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction (VIDD) are urgently needed, and the cellular basis of VIDD is poorly understood. This study evaluated whether transvenous phrenic nerve stimulation (PNS) could prevent VIDD in rabbits undergoing mechanical ventilation (MV) and explored whether oxidative stress-related genes might be candidate molecular markers for VIDD. Twenty-four adult male New Zealand white rabbits were allocated to control, MV, and PNS groups (n = 8 in each group). Rabbits in the MV and PNS groups underwent MV for 24 h. Intermittent bilateral transvenous PNS was performed in rabbits in the PNS group. Transdiaphragmatic pressure was recorded using balloon catheters. The diameters and cross-sectional areas (CSAs) of types I and II diaphragmatic fibers were measured using immunohistochemistry (IHC) techniques. Genes associated with VIDD were identified by RNA sequencing (RNA-seq), differentially expressed gene (DEG) analysis, and weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA). Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), Western blotting, and IHC analyses were carried out to verify the transcriptome profile. Pdi60Hz, Pdi80Hz, and Pdi100Hz were significantly higher in the PNS group than in the MV group at 12 and 24 h (P < 0.05 at both time points). The diameters and CSAs of types I (slow-twitch) and II (fast-twitch) fibers were significantly larger in the PNS group than in the MV group (P < 0.05). RNA-seq, RT-PCR, Western blotting, and IHC experiments identified two candidate genes associated with VIDD: Aldh1a1 and Scl25a30. The MV group had significantly higher mRNA and protein expressions of Aldh1a1/ALDH1A1 and significantly lower mRNA and protein expressions of Scl25a30/SCL25A30 than the control or PNS groups (P < 0.05). We have identified two candidate genes involved in the prevention of VIDD by transvenous PNS. These two key genes may provide a theoretical basis for targeted therapy against VIDD.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation (MV) is a clinical tool that provides respiratory support to patients unable to maintain adequate alveolar ventilation on their own. Although MV is often a life-saving intervention in critically ill patients, an undesired side-effect of prolonged MV is the rapid occurrence of diaphragmatic atrophy due to accelerated proteolysis and depressed protein synthesis. Investigations into the mechanism(s) responsible for MV-induced diaphragmatic atrophy reveal that activation of the calcium-activated protease, calpain, plays a key role in accelerating proteolysis in diaphragm muscle fibers. Moreover, active calpain has been reported to block signaling events that promote protein synthesis (i.e., inhibition of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) activation). While this finding suggests that active calpain can depress muscle protein synthesis, this postulate has not been experimentally verified. Therefore, we tested the hypothesis that active calpain plays a key role in the MV-induced depression of both anabolic signaling events and protein synthesis in the diaphragm muscle. MV-induced activation of calpain in diaphragm muscle fibers was prevented by transgene overexpression of calpastatin, an endogenous inhibitor of calpain. Our findings indicate that overexpression of calpastatin averts MV-induced activation of calpain in diaphragm fibers and rescues the MV-induced depression of protein synthesis in the diaphragm muscle. Surprisingly, deterrence of calpain activation did not impede the MV-induced inhibition of key anabolic signaling events including mTOR activation. However, blockade of calpain activation prevented the calpain-induced cleavage of glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase in diaphragm fibers; this finding is potentially important because aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases play a central role in protein synthesis. Regardless of the mechanism(s) responsible for calpain’s depression of protein synthesis, these results provide the first evidence that active calpain plays an important role in promoting the MV-induced depression of protein synthesis within diaphragm fibers.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Ultrasonography has recently emerged as a promising technique that can rapidly estimate diaphragm function, especially during the weaning period. The aims of this study were to describe the evolution of diaphragmatic morphology and functional measurements by ultrasound in ventilated children. MATERIAL AND METHODS This was a prospective, observational, single-center study. All the children admitted to our Pediatric Intensive Care Unit requiring mechanical ventilation for more than 48 h were included. Diaphragmatic thickness and the thickening fraction were assessed by ultrasound. RESULTS From June to December 2018, 47 patients (median age 3 months; interquartile range, 1-17) underwent 164 ultrasonographic evaluations. The median duration of mechanical ventilation was 168 h (interquartile range, 96-196). At the initial measurement, the thickness at end-inspiration was 2.2 mm (interquartile range, 1.8-2.5) and the thickness at end-expiration was 1.8 mm (interquartile range, 1.5-2.0) with a median decrease in thickness of -14% (interquartile range, -33% to -3%) and a -2% daily atrophy rate (interquartile range, -4.2% to 0%). Diaphragmatic atrophy was observed in 30/47 cases. Children who had been exposed to neuromuscular blockade infusion (n = 31) had a significantly lower mean thickness [-22% (interquartile range, -34% to -13%) vs. -6% (interquartile range, -12% to 0%); p = 0.009] and increased daily atrophy rate [-2.2% (interquartile range, -4.6 to 0%) vs. -1.4% (interquartile range, -2.6 to 0%); p = 0.049] compared to unexposed children. The decrease in thickness was significantly less in children ventilated for at least 12 hours with pressure support before extubation compared with those with shorter periods of spontaneous respiratory effort [-9.5% (interquartile range, -21 to 0%) vs. -26% (interquartile range, -37 to -12%); p = 0.011]. CONCLUSIONS Point-of-care diaphragmatic ultrasound can detect diaphragmatic atrophy in mechanically ventilated children. Diaphragmatic atrophy was strongly associated with the use of mechanical ventilation and neuromuscular blockade. Diaphragmatic thickness also tended to decrease less in the pre-extubation stage with pressure support. We found no correlation between progressive diaphragm thinning, extubation failure, or an increased need for non-invasive ventilation post extubation.

Rationale and design of a mechanistic clinical trial of JAK inhibition to prevent ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction. Respir Med 2021; 189:106620.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction (VIDD) is an important phenomenon that has been repeatedly demonstrated in experimental and clinical models of mechanical ventilation. Even a few hours of MV initiates signaling cascades that result in, first, reduced specific force, and later, atrophy of diaphragm muscle fibers. This severe, progressive weakness of the critical ventilatory muscle results in increased duration of MV and thus increased MV-associated complications/deaths. A drug that could prevent VIDD would likely have a major positive impact on intensive care unit outcomes. We identified the JAK/STAT pathway as important in VIDD and then demonstrated that JAK inhibition prevents VIDD in rats. We subsequently developed a clinical model of VIDD demonstrating reduced contractile force of isolated diaphragm fibers harvested after ∼7 vs ∼1 h of MV during a thoracic surgical procedure. MATERIALS AND METHODS The NIH-funded clinical trial that has been initiated is a prospective, placebo controlled trial: subjects undergoing esophagectomy are randomized to receive 6 preoperative doses of the FDA-approved JAK inhibitor Tofacitinib (commonly used for rheumatoid arthritis) vs. placebo. The primary outcome variable will be the difference in the reduction that occurs in force generation of diaphragm single muscle fibers (normalized to their cross-sectional area), in the Tofacitinib vs. placebo subjects, over 6 h of MV. DISCUSSION This trial represents a first-in-human, mechanistic clinical trial of a drug to prevent VIDD. It will provide proof-of-concept in human subjects whether JAK inhibition prevents clinical VIDD, and if successful, will support an ICU-based clinical trial that would determine whether JAK inhibition impacts clinical outcome variables such as duration of MV and mortality.

Abstract
Background: Mechanical ventilation (MV) often leads to ventilation-induced diaphragm dysfunction (VIDD). Although the development of this disorder had been linked to oxidative stress, mitochondrial energy deficiency, autophagy activation, and apoptosis in the diaphragm, it remains unclear whether the activation of mitophagy can induce VIDD. With our research, our endeavor is to uncover whether PTEN-induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1)/Parkin-mediated mitophagy affects the MV-caused diaphragmatic dysfunction Methods: Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to MV treatment for 6 h (MV-6h), 12 h (MV-12h), or 24 h (MV-24h). Post MV, the diaphragm muscle compound action potential (CMAP) and cross-sectional areas (CSAs) of the diaphragm of these rats were measured. The levels of proteins of interest were examined to assess muscle health, mitochondrial dynamics, and mitophagy in the diaphragm. The co-localization of PINK1 with the mitochondrial protein marker tom20 was examined, as well as transmission electron microscopy analysis to detect changes in diaphragm mitochondrial ultrastructure. Results: MV-12h and MV-24h treatments resulted in a decrease in CSA of diaphragm and CMAP amplitude. In addition, the expressions of F-box (MFAbx), muscle-specific ring finger 1 (MURF1), PINK1, and p62 were elevated in rats treated with MV for 12 h and 24 h, while mfn2 expression was reduced. Rats following MV-24h treatment displayed an increase in mitochondrial dynamic protein (Drp1) and Parkin expression and microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3/1 (LC3II/I) ratio. Moreover, decreased SOD and GSH activity and membrane potential were observed after MV-12h and MV-24h treatment, while H2O2 activity increased after MV-24h treatment. In addition, a strong co-localization between PINK1 and tom20 was identified. Conclusion: These results reveal that MV leads to various changes in mitochondrial dynamics and significantly increases the mitophagy levels, which subsequently cause the variation in diaphragmatic function and muscle atrophy, indicating that mitophagy could be one of the possible mechanisms by which MV induces diaphragmatic dysfunction. The reviews of this paper are available via the supplemental material section.

Abstract
Objective To describe the usual practice of mobility therapy in the adult intensive care unit for patients with and without COVID-19. Methods Online survey in which physical therapists working in an adult intensive care unit in Argentina participated. Sixteen multiple-choice or single-response questions grouped into three sections were asked. The first section addressed personal, professional and work environment data. The second section presented questions regarding usual care, and the third focused on practices under COVID-19 pandemic conditions. Results Of 351 physical therapists, 76.1% answer that they were exclusively responsible for patient mobility. The highest motor-based goal varied according to four patient scenarios: Mechanically ventilated patients, patients weaned from mechanical ventilation, patients who had never required mechanical ventilation, and patients with COVID-19 under mechanical ventilation. In the first and last scenarios, the highest goal was to optimize muscle strength, while for the other two, it was to perform activities of daily living. Finally, the greatest limitation in working with patients with COVID-19 was respiratory and/or contact isolation. Conclusion Physical therapists in Argentina reported being responsible for the mobility of patients in the intensive care unit. The highest motor-based therapeutic goals for four classic scenarios in the closed area were limited by the need for mechanical ventilation. The greatest limitation when mobilizing patients with COVID-19 was respiratory and contact isolation.

Ichinoseki-Sekine N, Smuder AJ, Morton AB, Hinkley JM, Mor Huertas A, Powers SK. Hydrogen sulfide donor protects against mechanical ventilation-induced atrophy and contractile dysfunction in the rat diaphragm. Clin Transl Sci 2021; 14:2139-2145. [PMID: 34080307 PMCID: PMC8604213 DOI: 10.1111/cts.13081] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2021] [Revised: 04/14/2021] [Accepted: 04/16/2021] [Indexed: 11/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Mechanical ventilation (MV) is a clinical tool providing adequate alveolar ventilation in patients that require respiratory support. Although a life-saving intervention for critically ill patients, prolonged MV results in the rapid development of inspiratory muscle weakness due to both diaphragmatic atrophy and contractile dysfunction; collectively known as "ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction" (VIDD). VIDD is a severe clinical problem because diaphragmatic weakness is a risk factor for difficulties in weaning patients from MV. Currently, no standard treatment to prevent VIDD exists. Nonetheless, growing evidence reveals that hydrogen sulfide (H2 S) possesses cytoprotective properties capable of protecting skeletal muscles against several hallmarks of VIDD, including oxidative damage, accelerated proteolysis, and mitochondrial damage. Therefore, we used an established animal model of MV to test the hypothesis that treatment with sodium sulfide (H2 S donor) will defend against VIDD. Our results confirm that sodium sulfide was sufficient to protect the diaphragm against both MV-induced fiber atrophy and contractile dysfunction. H2 S prevents MV-induced damage to diaphragmatic mitochondria as evidenced by protection against mitochondrial uncoupling. Moreover, treatment with sodium sulfide prevented the MV-induced activation of the proteases, calpain, and caspase-3 in the diaphragm. Taken together, these results support the hypothesis that treatment with a H2 S donor protects the diaphragm against VIDD. These outcomes provide the first evidence that H2 S has therapeutic potential to protect against MV-induced diaphragm weakness and to reduce difficulties in weaning patients from the ventilator. Study Highlights WHAT IS THE CURRENT KNOWLEDGE ON THE TOPIC? Mechanical ventilation (MV) results in diaphragm atrophy and contractile dysfunction, known as ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction (VIDD). VIDD is important because diaphragm weakness is a risk factor for problems in weaning patients from MV. Currently, no accepted treatment exists to protect against VIDD. Growing evidence reveals that hydrogen sulfide (H2 S) donors protect skeletal muscle against ischemia-reperfusion-induced injury. Nonetheless, it is unknown if treatment with a H2 S donor can protect against VIDD. WHAT QUESTION DID THIS STUDY ADDRESS? Can treatment with an H2 S donor protect against VIDD? WHAT DOES THIS STUDY ADD TO OUR KNOWLEDGE? This study provides the first evidence that treatment with a H2 S donor protects against VIDD. HOW MIGHT THIS CHANGE CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY OR TRANSLATIONAL SCIENCE? These new findings provide the basis for further exploration of H2 S donors as a therapy to prevent VIDD and reduce the risk of problems in weaning patients from MV.

Abstract
Ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction (VIDD) is increasingly recognized as an important side-effect of invasive ventilation in critically ill patients and is associated with poor outcomes. Whether patients with VIDD benefit from temporary diaphragm pacing is uncertain. Intramuscular diaphragmatic electrodes were implanted for temporary stimulation with a pacing device (TransAeris System) in two patients with VIDD. The electrodes were implanted via laparoscopy (first patient) or via bilateral thoracoscopy (second patient). Stimulation parameters were titrated according to tolerance. Diaphragm thickening fraction by ultrasound, maximum inspiratory pressure (Pimax) and diaphragm electromyography (EMGdi) signal analysis were used to monitor the response to diaphragm pacing. Both patients tolerated diaphragm pacing. In the first patient, improvements in diaphragm excursions were noted once pacing was initiated and diaphragm thickening fraction did not further deteriorate over time. The diaphragm thickening fraction improved in the second patient, and Pimax as well as EMGdi analysis suggested improved muscle function. This patient could be fully weaned from the ventilator. These case reports present the first experience with temporary diaphragm pacing in critically ill patients with VIDD. Our results should be taken cautiously given the reduced sample size, but provide the proof of concept to put forward the hypothesis that a course of diaphragm pacing may be associated with improved diaphragmatic function. Our findings of the tolerance to the procedure and the beneficial physiological effects are not prove of safety and efficacy, but may set the ground to design and conduct larger studies.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Diaphragmatic electrode implantation and temporary diaphragm pacing have not been previously used in ICU patients with VIDD. Patients were monitored using a multimodal monitoring approach including ultrasound of the diaphragm, measurement of maximum inspiratory pressure and EMG signal analysis. Our results suggest that diaphragm pacing may improve diaphragmatic function, with the potential to prevent and treat VIDD in critically ill patients. Safety and efficacy of this intervention is yet to be proven in larger studies.

Abstract
Periods of muscle disuse promote marked mitochondrial alterations that contribute to the impaired metabolic health and degree of atrophy in the muscle. Thus, understanding the molecular underpinnings of muscle mitochondrial decline with prolonged inactivity is of considerable interest. There are translational applications to patients subjected to limb immobilization following injury, illness-induced bed rest, neuropathies, and even microgravity. Studies in these patients, as well as on various pre-clinical rodent models have elucidated the pathways involved in mitochondrial quality control, such as mitochondrial biogenesis, mitophagy, fission and fusion, and the corresponding mitochondrial derangements that underlie the muscle atrophy that ensues from inactivity. Defective organelles display altered respiratory function concurrent with increased accumulation of reactive oxygen species, which exacerbate myofiber atrophy via degradative pathways. The preservation of muscle quality and function is critical for maintaining mobility throughout the lifespan, and for the prevention of inactivity-related diseases. Exercise training is effective in preserving muscle mass by promoting favourable mitochondrial adaptations that offset the mitochondrial dysfunction, which contributes to the declines in muscle and whole-body metabolic health. This highlights the need for further investigation of the mechanisms in which mitochondria contribute to disuse-induced atrophy, as well as the specific molecular targets that can be exploited therapeutically.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Passivity of the diaphragm during prolonged mechanical ventilation can lead to ventilation-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction reasoned by a reduction of diaphragmatic muscle strength. Electrical stimulation may be utilised to modulate diaphragm muscle strength. Therefore we intended to investigate diaphragmatic muscle strength based on stimulation with electric impulses. APPROACH Diaphragms of Wistar rats were excised, embedded in various incubation solutions and placed in a diaphragm force measurement device. Pressure amplitudes generated by the diaphragm in dependency of the embedding solution, stimulation frequency and time (360 min) were determined. Furthermore, the diaphragms were histologically evaluated. MAIN RESULTS The ex vivo diaphragms evoked no pressure if embedded in incubation solutions with high potassium concentrations and up to >20 cmH2O if embedded in incubation solutions with extracellular potassium concentrations. Although vitality was well maintained after 360 min (78%) cultivation, the diaphragm's force dropped by 90.8% after 240 min. The decline in the diaphragm's force progressed faster if stimulation was performed every 20 min compared to every 120 min. The size of Type I muscle fibres was largest in diaphragms stimulated every 120 min. The fibre size of Type 2b/x muscle cells was lower in diaphragms after electrical stimulation compared to non-stimulated diaphragms. SIGNIFICANCE The force that the diaphragm can develop in ex vivo conditions depends on the incubation solution and the conditions of activation. Activity-related changes in the diaphragm's muscular force are accompanied by specific changes in muscle fibre size.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation (MV) is often a life-saving intervention for patients in respiratory failure. Unfortunately, a common and undesired consequence of prolonged MV is the development of diaphragmatic atrophy and contractile dysfunction. This MV-induced diaphragmatic weakness is commonly labeled “ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction” (VIDD). VIDD is an important clinical problem because diaphragmatic weakness is a major risk factor for the failure to wean patients from MV; this inability to remove patients from ventilator support results in prolonged hospitalization and increased morbidity and mortality. Although several processes contribute to the development of VIDD, it is clear that oxidative stress leading to the rapid activation of proteases is a primary contributor. While all major proteolytic systems likely contribute to VIDD, emerging evidence reveals that activation of the calcium-activated protease calpain plays a required role. This review highlights the signaling pathways leading to VIDD with a focus on the cellular events that promote increased cytosolic calcium levels and the subsequent activation of calpain within diaphragm muscle fibers. In particular, we discuss the emerging evidence that increased mitochondrial production of reactive oxygen species promotes oxidation of the ryanodine receptor/calcium release channel, resulting in calcium release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum, accelerated proteolysis, and VIDD. We conclude with a discussion of important and unanswered questions associated with disturbances in calcium homeostasis in diaphragm muscle fibers during prolonged MV.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation is the standard treatment when volitional breathing is insufficient, but drawbacks include muscle atrophy, alveolar damage, and reduced mobility. Respiratory pacing is an alternative approach using electrical stimulation-induced diaphragm contraction to ventilate the lung. Oxygenation and acid-base homeostasis are maintained by matching ventilation to metabolic needs; however, current pacing technology requires manual tuning and does not respond to dynamic user-specific metabolic demand, thus requiring re-tuning of stimulation parameters as physiological changes occur. Here, we describe respiratory pacing using a closed-loop adaptive controller that can self-adjust in real-time to meet metabolic needs. The controller uses an adaptive Pattern Generator Pattern Shaper (PG/PS) architecture that autonomously generates a desired ventilatory pattern in response to dynamic changes in arterial CO2 levels and, based on a learning algorithm, modulates stimulation intensity and respiratory cycle duration to evoke this ventilatory pattern. In vivo experiments in rats with respiratory depression and in those with a paralyzed hemidiaphragm confirmed that the controller can adapt and control ventilation to ameliorate hypoventilation and restore normocapnia regardless of the cause of respiratory dysfunction. This novel closed-loop bioelectronic controller advances the state-of-art in respiratory pacing by demonstrating the ability to automatically personalize stimulation patterns and adapt to achieve adequate ventilation.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Complications of mechanical ventilation, such as ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) and ventilator-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction (VIDD), adversely affect the outcome of critically ill patients. Although mostly studied during control ventilation, it is increasingly appreciated that VILI and VIDD also occur during assisted ventilation. Hence, current research focuses on identifying ways to monitor and deliver protective ventilation in assisted modes. This review describes the operating principles of proportional modes of assist, their implications for lung and diaphragm protective ventilation, and the supporting clinical data. RECENT FINDINGS Proportional modes of assist, proportional assist ventilation, PAV, and neurally adjusted ventilatory assist, NAVA, deliver a pressure assist that is proportional to the patient's effort, enabling ventilation to be better controlled by the patient's brain. This control underlies the potential of proportional modes to avoid over-assist and under-assist, improve patient--ventilator interaction, and provide protective ventilation. Indeed, in clinical studies, proportional modes have been associated with reduced asynchronies, enhanced diaphragmatic recovery, and limitation of excessive tidal volume. Additionally, proportional modes facilitate better monitoring of the delivery of protective assisted ventilation. SUMMARY Physiological rationale and clinical data suggest a potential role for proportional modes of assist in providing and monitoring lung and diaphragm protective ventilation.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation (MV) is a life-saving intervention for many critically ill patients. Unfortunately, an unintended consequence of prolonged MV is the rapid development of diaphragmatic atrophy and contractile dysfunction, known as ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction (VIDD). Although the mechanism(s) responsible for VIDD are not fully understood, abundant evidence reveals that oxidative stress leading to the activation of the major proteolytic systems (i.e., autophagy, ubiquitin-proteasome, caspase, and calpain) plays a dominant role. Of the proteolytic systems involved in VIDD, calpain has received limited experimental attention due to the longstanding dogma that calpain plays a minor role in inactivity-induced muscle atrophy. Guided by preliminary experiments, we tested the hypothesis that activation of calpains play an essential role in MV-induced oxidative stress and the development of VIDD. This premise was rigorously tested by transgene overexpression of calpastatin, an endogenous inhibitor of calpains. Animals with/without transfection of the calpastatin gene in diaphragm muscle fibers were exposed to 12 h of MV. Results confirmed that overexpression of calpastatin barred MV-induced activation of calpain in diaphragm fibers. Importantly, deterrence of calpain activation protected the diaphragm against MV-induced oxidative stress, fiber atrophy, and contractile dysfunction. Moreover, prevention of calpain activation in the diaphragm forstalled MV-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and prevented MV-induced activation of caspase-3 along with the transcription of muscle specific E3 ligases. Collectively, these results support the hypothesis that calpain activation plays an essential role in the early development of VIDD. Further, these findings provide the first direct evidence that calpain plays an important function in inactivity-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress in skeletal muscle fibers. Inhibiting calpains during mechanical ventilation protects the diaphragm. Calpains play an important role in muscle atrophy and contractile dysfunction. Calpain inhibition during mechanical ventilation prevents mitochondrial dysfunction. Calpain-cleaved molecules may play important signaling roles. Calpain activation cross-talks with other proteolytic systems.

Abstract
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) has produced significant health emergencies worldwide, resulting in the declaration by the World Health Organization of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Acute respiratory syndrome seems to be the most common manifestation of COVID-19. A high proportion of patients require intensive care unit admission and mechanical ventilation (MV) to survive. It has been well established that angiotensin-converting enzyme type 2 (ACE2) is the primary cellular receptor for SARS-CoV-2. ACE2 belongs to the renin–angiotensin system (RAS), composed of several peptides, such as angiotensin II (Ang II) and angiotensin (1-7) (Ang-(1-7)). Both peptides regulate muscle mass and function. It has been described that SARS-CoV-2 infection, by direct and indirect mechanisms, affects a broad range of organ systems. In the skeletal muscle, through unbalanced RAS activity, SARS-CoV-2 could induce severe consequences such as loss of muscle mass, strength, and physical function, which will delay and interfere with the recovery process of patients with COVID-19. This article discusses the relationship between RAS, SARS-CoV-2, skeletal muscle, and the potentially harmful consequences for skeletal muscle in patients currently infected with and recovering from COVID-19.

Abstract
Significance: Skeletal muscles play essential roles in key body functions including breathing, locomotion, and glucose homeostasis; therefore, maintaining healthy skeletal muscles is important. Prolonged periods of muscle inactivity (e.g., bed rest, mechanical ventilation, or limb immobilization) result in skeletal muscle atrophy and weakness. Recent Advances: Disuse skeletal muscle atrophy occurs due to both accelerated proteolysis and decreased protein synthesis with proteolysis playing a leading role in some types of inactivity-induced atrophy. Although all major proteolytic systems are involved in inactivity-induced proteolysis in skeletal muscles, growing evidence indicates that both calpain and autophagy play an important role. Regulation of proteolysis in skeletal muscle is under complex control, but it is established that activation of both calpain and autophagy is directly linked to oxidative stress. Critical Issues: In this review, we highlight the experimental evidence that supports a cause and effect link between reactive oxygen species (ROS) and activation of both calpain and autophagy in skeletal muscle fibers during prolonged inactivity. We also review the sources of oxidant production in muscle fibers during inactivity-induced atrophy, and provide a detailed discussion on how ROS activates both calpain and autophagy during disuse muscle wasting. Future Directions: Future studies are required to delineate the specific mechanisms by which ROS activates both calpain and autophagy in skeletal muscles during prolonged periods of contractile inactivity. This knowledge is essential to develop the most effective strategies to protect against disuse muscle atrophy. Antioxid. Redox Signal. 33, 559-569.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the effectiveness and rank order of physical therapy interventions, including conventional physical therapy (CPT), inspiratory muscle training (IMT), and early mobilization (EM) on mechanical ventilation (MV) duration and weaning duration. DATA SOURCES PubMed, The Cochrane Library, Scopus, and CINAHL complete electronic databases were searched through August 2019. STUDY SELECTION Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) investigating the effect of IMT, EM, or CPT on MV duration and the weaning duration in patients with MV were included. Studies that were determined to meet the eligibility criteria by 2 independent authors were included. A total of 6498 relevant studies were identified in the search, and 18 RCTs (934 participants) were included in the final analysis. DATA EXTRACTION Data were extracted independently by 2 authors and assessed the study quality by the Cochrane risk-of-bias tool. The primary outcomes were MV duration and weaning duration. DATA SYNTHESIS Various interventions of physical therapy were identified in the eligible studies, including IMT, IMT+CPT, EM, EM+CPT, and CPT. The data analysis demonstrated that compared with CPT, IMT+CPT significantly reduced the weaning duration (mean difference; 95% confidence interval) (-2.60; -4.76 to -0.45) and EM significantly reduced the MV duration (-2.01; -3.81 to -0.22). IMT+CPT and EM had the highest effectiveness in reducing the weaning duration and MV duration, respectively. CONCLUSION IMT or EM should be recommended for improving the weaning outcomes in mechanically ventilated patients. However, an interpretation with caution is required due to the heterogeneity.

Abstract
Calpains are cysteine proteases expressed in skeletal muscle fibers and other cells. Although calpain was first reported to act as a kinase activating factor in skeletal muscle, the consensus is now that calpains play a canonical role in protein turnover. However, recent evidence reveals new and exciting roles for calpains in skeletal muscle. This review will discuss the functions of calpains in skeletal muscle remodeling in response to both exercise and inactivity-induced muscle atrophy. Calpains participate in protein turnover and muscle remodeling by selectively cleaving target proteins and creating fragmented proteins that can be further degraded by other proteolytic systems. Nonetheless, an often overlooked function of calpains is that calpain-mediated cleavage of proteins can result in fragmented proteins that are biologically active and have the potential to actively influence cell signaling. In this manner, calpains function beyond their roles in protein turnover and influence downstream signaling effects. This review will highlight both the canonical and noncanonical roles that calpains play in skeletal muscle remodeling including sarcomere transformation, membrane repair, triad junction formation, regulation of excitation-contraction coupling, protein turnover, cell signaling, and mitochondrial function. We conclude with a discussion of key unanswered questions regarding the roles that calpains play in skeletal muscle.

Abstract
Moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a chronic health condition with multi-systemic effects. Survivors face significant long-term functional limitations, including physical activity intolerance and disordered sleep. Persistent cardiorespiratory dysfunction is a potentially modifiable yet often overlooked major contributor to the alarmingly high long-term morbidity and mortality rates in these patients. This narrative review was developed through systematic and non-systematic searches for research relating cardiorespiratory function to moderate-to-severe TBI. The literature reveals patients who have survived moderate-to-severe TBI have ~ 25-35% reduction in maximal aerobic capacity 6-18 months post-injury, resting pulmonary capacity parameters that are reduced 25-40% for weeks to years post-injury, increased sedentary behavior, and elevated risk of cardiorespiratory-related morbidity and mortality. Synthesis of data from other patient populations reveals that cardiorespiratory dysfunction is likely a consequence of ventilator-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction (VIDD), which is not currently addressed in TBI management. Thus, cardiopulmonary exercise testing should be routinely performed in this patient population and those with cardiorespiratory deficits should be further evaluated for diaphragmatic dysfunction. Lack of targeted treatment for underlying cardiorespiratory dysfunction, including VIDD, likely contributes to physical activity intolerance and poor functional outcomes in these patients. Interventional studies have demonstrated that short-term exercise training programs are effective in patients with moderate-to-severe TBI, though improvement is variable. Inspiratory muscle training is beneficial in other patient populations with diaphragmatic dysfunction, and may be valuable for patients with TBI who have been mechanically ventilated. Thus, clinicians with expertise in cardiorespiratory fitness assessment and exercise training interventions should be included in patient management for individuals with moderate-to-severe TBI.

Redox modulation of muscle mass and function. Redox Biol 2020; 35:101531. [PMID: 32371010 PMCID: PMC7284907 DOI: 10.1016/j.redox.2020.101531] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2020] [Revised: 03/28/2020] [Accepted: 03/31/2020] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Muscle mass and strength are very important for exercise performance. Training-induced musculoskeletal injuries usually require periods of complete immobilization to prevent any muscle contraction of the affected muscle groups. Disuse muscle wasting will likely affect every sport practitioner in his or her lifetime. Even short periods of disuse results in significant declines in muscle size, fiber cross sectional area, and strength. To understand the molecular signaling pathways involved in disuse muscle atrophy is of the utmost importance to develop more effective countermeasures in sport science research. We have divided our review in four different sections. In the first one we discuss the molecular mechanisms involved in muscle atrophy including the main protein synthesis and protein breakdown signaling pathways. In the second section of the review we deal with the main cellular, animal, and human atrophy models. The sources of reactive oxygen species in disuse muscle atrophy and the mechanism through which they regulate protein synthesis and proteolysis are reviewed in the third section of this review. The last section is devoted to the potential interventions to prevent muscle disuse atrophy with especial consideration to studies on which the levels of endogenous antioxidants enzymes or dietary antioxidants have been tested.

Abstract
WHAT WE ALREADY KNOW ABOUT THIS TOPIC Diaphragm dysfunction and atrophy develop during controlled mechanical ventilation. Although oxidative stress injures muscle during controlled mechanical ventilation, it is unclear whether it causes autophagy or fiber atrophy. WHAT THIS ARTICLE TELLS US THAT IS NEW Pretreatment of rats undergoing 24 h of mechanical ventilation with N-acetylcysteine prevents decreases in diaphragm contractility, inhibits the autophagy and proteasome pathways, but has no influence on the development of diaphragm fiber atrophy. BACKGROUND Diaphragm dysfunction and atrophy develop during prolonged controlled mechanical ventilation. Fiber atrophy has been attributed to activation of the proteasome and autophagy proteolytic pathways. Oxidative stress activates the proteasome during controlled mechanical ventilation, but it is unclear whether it also activates autophagy. This study investigated whether pretreatment with the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine affects controlled mechanical ventilation-induced diaphragm contractile dysfunction, fiber atrophy, and proteasomal and autophagic pathway activation. The study also explored whether proteolytic pathway activity during controlled mechanical ventilation is mediated by microRNAs that negatively regulate ubiquitin E3 ligases and autophagy-related genes. METHODS Three groups of adult male rats were studied (n = 10 per group). The animals in the first group were anesthetized and allowed to spontaneously breathe. Animals in the second group were pretreated with saline before undergoing controlled mechanical ventilation for 24 h. The animals in the third group were pretreated with N-acetylcysteine (150 mg/kg) before undergoing controlled mechanical ventilation for 24 h. Diaphragm contractility and activation of the proteasome and autophagy pathways were measured. Expressions of microRNAs that negatively regulate ubiquitin E3 ligases and autophagy-related genes were measured with quantitative polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS Controlled mechanical ventilation decreased diaphragm twitch force from 428 ± 104 g/cm (mean ± SD) to 313 ± 50 g/cm and tetanic force from 2,491 ± 411 g/cm to 1,618 ± 177 g/cm. Controlled mechanical ventilation also decreased diaphragm fiber size, increased expression of several autophagy genes, and augmented Atrogin-1, MuRF1, and Nedd4 expressions by 36-, 41-, and 8-fold, respectively. Controlled mechanical ventilation decreased the expressions of six microRNAs (miR-20a, miR-106b, miR-376, miR-101a, miR-204, and miR-93) that regulate autophagy genes. Pretreatment with N-acetylcysteine prevented diaphragm contractile dysfunction, attenuated protein ubiquitination, and downregulated E3 ligase and autophagy gene expression. It also reversed controlled mechanical ventilation-induced microRNA expression decreases. N-Acetylcysteine pretreatment had no affect on fiber atrophy. CONCLUSIONS Prolonged controlled mechanical ventilation activates the proteasome and autophagy pathways in the diaphragm through oxidative stress. Pathway activation is accomplished, in part, through inhibition of microRNAs that negatively regulate autophagy-related genes.

Abstract
Background : Since diaphragm passivity induces oxidative stress that leads to rapid atrophy of diaphragm, we investigated the effect of controlled ventilation on diaphragm thickness during assist-control ventilation (ACV). Methods : Previously, we measured end-expiratory diaphragm thickness (Tdiee) of patients mechanically ventilated for more than 48 hours on days 1, 3, 5 and 7 after the start of ventilation. We retrospectively investigated the proportion of controlled ventilation during the initial 48-hour ACV (CV48%). Patients were classified according to CV48% : Low group, less than 25% ; High group, higher than 25%. Results : Of 56 patients under pressure-control ACV, Tdiee increased more than 10% in 6 patients (11%), unchanged in 8 patients (14%) and decreased more than 10% in 42 patients (75%). During the first week of ventilation, Tdiee decreased in both groups : Low (difference, -7.4% ; 95% confidence interval [CI], -10.1% to -4.6% ; p < 0.001) and High group (difference, -5.2% ; 95% CI, -8.5% to -2.0% ; p = 0.049). Maximum Tdiee variation from baseline did not differ between Low (-15.8% ; interquartile range [IQR], -22.3 to -1.5) and High group (-16.7% ; IQR, -22.6 to -11.1, p = 0.676). Conclusions : During ACV, maximum variation in Tdiee was not associated with proportion of controlled ventilation higher than 25%. J. Med. Invest. 67 : 332-337, August, 2020.

Abstract
RATIONALE Ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction (VIDD) increases morbidity and mortality in critical care patients. Although VIDD has been associated with mitochondrial oxidative stress and calcium homeostasis impairment, the underling mechanisms are still unknown. We hypothesized that diaphragmatic mitochondrial oxidative stress causes remodeling of the ryanodine receptor (RyR1)/calcium release channel, contributing to sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ leak, proteolysis and VIDD. METHOD In mice diaphragms mechanically ventilated for short (6 h) and long (12 h) period, we assessed mitochondrial ROS production, mitochondrial aconitase activity as a marker of mitochondrial oxidative stress, RyR1 remodeling and function, Ca2+ dependent proteolysis, TGFβ1 and STAT3 pathway, muscle fibers cross-sectional area, and diaphragm specific force production, with or without the mitochondrial targeted anti-oxidant peptide d-Arg-2', 6'-dimethyltyrosine-Lys-Phe-NH2 (SS31). MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS 6 h of mechanical ventilation (MV) resulted in increased mitochondrial ROS production, reduction of mitochondrial aconitase activity, increased oxidation, S-nitrosylation, S-glutathionylation and Ser-2844 phosphorylation of RyR1, depletion of stabilizing subunit calstabin1 from RyR1, increased SR Ca2+ leak. Preventing mROS production by SS31 treatment does not affect the TGFβ1 and STAT3 activation, which suggests that mitochondrial oxidative stress is a downstream pathway to TGFβ1 and STAT3, early involved in VIDD. This is further supported by the fact that SS-31 rescue all the other described cellular events and diaphragm contractile dysfunction induced by MV, while SS20, an analog of SS31 lacking antioxidant properties, failed to prevent these cellular events and the contractile dysfunction. Similar results were found in ventilated for 12 h. Moreover, SS31 treatment prevented calpain1 activity and diaphragm atrophy observed after 12 h of MV. This study emphasizes that mitochondrial oxidative stress during 6 h-MV contributes to SR Ca2+ leak via RyR1 remodeling, and diaphragm weakness, while longer periods of MV (12 h) were also associated with increased Ca2+-dependent proteolysis and diaphragm atrophy.

Dexmedetomidine Impairs Diaphragm Function and Increases Oxidative Stress but Does Not Aggravate Diaphragmatic Atrophy in Mechanically Ventilated Rats. Anesthesiology 2019; 128:784-795.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Anesthetics in ventilated patients are critical as any cofactor hampering diaphragmatic function may have a negative impact on the weaning progress and therefore on patients' mortality. Dexmedetomidine may display antioxidant and antiproteolytic properties, but it also reduced glucose uptake by the muscle, which may impair diaphragm force production. This study tested the hypothesis that dexmedetomidine could inhibit ventilator-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction. METHODS Twenty-four rats were separated into three groups (n = 8/group). Two groups were mechanically ventilated during either dexmedetomidine or pentobarbital exposure for 24 h, referred to as interventional groups. A third group of directly euthanized rats served as control. Force generation, fiber dimensions, proteolysis markers, protein oxidation and lipid peroxidation, calcium homeostasis markers, and glucose transporter-4 (Glut-4) translocation were measured in the diaphragm. RESULTS Diaphragm force, corrected for cross-sectional area, was significantly decreased in both interventional groups compared to controls and was significantly lower with dexmedetomidine compared to pentobarbital (e.g., 100 Hz: -18%, P < 0.0001). In contrast to pentobarbital, dexmedetomidine did not lead to diaphragmatic atrophy, but it induced more protein oxidation (200% vs. 73% in pentobarbital, P = 0.0015), induced less upregulation of muscle atrophy F-box (149% vs. 374% in pentobarbital, P < 0.001) and impaired Glut-4 translocation (-73%, P < 0.0005). It activated autophagy, the calcium-dependent proteases, and caused lipid peroxidation similarly to pentobarbital. CONCLUSIONS Twenty-four hours of mechanical ventilation during dexmedetomidine sedation led to a worsening of ventilation-induced diaphragm dysfunction, possibly through impaired Glut-4 translocation. Although dexmedetomidine prevented diaphragmatic fiber atrophy, it did not inhibit oxidative stress and activation of the proteolytic pathways.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation [MV] is a life-saving technique delivered to critically ill patients incapable of adequately ventilating and/or oxygenating due to respiratory or other disease processes. This necessarily invasive support however could potentially result in important iatrogenic complications. Even brief periods of MV may result in diaphragm weakness [i.e., ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction [VIDD]], which may be associated with difficulty weaning from the ventilator as well as mortality. This suggests that VIDD could potentially have a major impact on clinical practice through worse clinical outcomes and healthcare resource use. Recent translational investigations have identified that VIDD is mainly characterized by alterations resulting in a major decline of diaphragmatic contractile force together with atrophy of diaphragm muscle fibers. However, the signaling mechanisms responsible for VIDD have not been fully established. In this paper, we summarize the current understanding of the pathophysiological pathways underlying VIDD and highlight the diagnostic approach, as well as novel and experimental therapeutic options.

Abstract
Ventilatory pacing by electrical stimulation of the phrenic nerve or of the diaphragm has been shown to enhance quality of life compared to mechanical ventilation. However, commercially available ventilatory pacing devices require initial manual specification of stimulation parameters and frequent adjustment to achieve and maintain suitable ventilation over long periods of time. Here, we have developed an adaptive, closed-loop, neuromorphic, pattern-shaping controller capable of automatically determining a suitable stimulation pattern and adapting it to maintain a desired breath-volume profile on a breath-by-breath basis. The system adapts the pattern of stimulation parameters based on the error between the measured volume sampled every 40 ms and a desired breath volume profile. In vivo studies in anesthetized male Sprague-Dawley rats without and with spinal cord injury by spinal hemisection at C2 indicated that the controller was capable of automatically adapting stimulation parameters to attain a desired volume profile. Despite diaphragm hemiparesis, the controller was able to achieve a desired volume in the injured animals that did not differ from the tidal volume observed before injury (p = 0.39). Closed-loop adaptive pacing partially mitigated hypoventilation as indicated by reduction of end-tidal CO2 values during pacing. The closed-loop controller was developed and parametrized in a computational testbed before in vivo assessment. This bioelectronic technology could serve as an individualized and autonomous respiratory pacing approach for support or recovery from ventilatory deficiency.

Abstract
The diaphragm, the main muscle of inspiration, is constantly subjected to mechanical loading. Only during controlled mechanical ventilation, as occurs during thoracic surgery and in the intensive care unit, is mechanical loading of the diaphragm arrested. Animal studies indicate that the diaphragm is highly sensitive to unloading, causing rapid muscle fiber atrophy and contractile weakness; unloading-induced diaphragm atrophy and contractile weakness have been suggested to contribute to the difficulties in weaning patients from ventilator support. The molecular triggers that initiate the rapid unloading atrophy of the diaphragm are not well understood, although proteolytic pathways and oxidative signaling have been shown to be involved. Mechanical stress is known to play an important role in the maintenance of muscle mass. Within the muscle's sarcomere, titin is considered to play an important role in the stress-response machinery. Titin is a giant protein that acts as a mechanosensor regulating muscle protein expression in a sarcomere strain-dependent fashion. Thus titin is an attractive candidate for sensing the sudden mechanical arrest of the diaphragm when patients are mechanically ventilated, leading to changes in muscle protein expression. Here, we provide a novel perspective on how titin and its biomechanical sensing and signaling might be involved in the development of mechanical unloading-induced diaphragm weakness.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation (MV) is a life-saving measure for those incapable of adequately ventilating or oxygenating without assistance. Unfortunately, even brief periods of MV result in diaphragm weakness (i.e., ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction [VIDD]) that may render it difficult to wean the ventilator. Prolonged MV is associated with cascading complications and is a strong risk factor for death. Thus, prevention of VIDD may have a dramatic impact on mortality rates. Here, we summarize the current understanding of the pathogenic events underlying VIDD. Numerous alterations have been proven important in both human and animal MV diaphragm. These include protein degradation via the ubiquitin proteasome system, autophagy, apoptosis, and calpain activity-all causing diaphragm muscle fiber atrophy, altered energy supply via compromised oxidative phosphorylation and upregulation of glycolysis, and also mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress. Mitochondrial oxidative stress in fact appears to be a central factor in each of these events. Recent studies by our group and others indicate that mitochondrial function is modulated by several signaling molecules, including Smad3, signal transducer and activator of transcription 3, and FoxO. MV rapidly activates Smad3 and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3, which upregulate mitochondrial oxidative stress. Additional roles may be played by angiotensin II and leaky ryanodine receptors causing elevated calcium levels. We present, here, a hypothetical scaffold for understanding the molecular pathogenesis of VIDD, which links together these elements. These pathways harbor several drug targets that could soon move toward testing in clinical trials. We hope that this review will shape a short list of the most promising candidates.

Abstract
Early mobilization (EM) is practiced for intensive care unit (ICU) patients in many hospitals in the Eastern Province in Saudi Arabia. Respiratory care professionals’ knowledge about using EM was, therefore, surveyed and investigated to improve and update its practice and ultimately to develop related regulations and policies. A survey including 156 respiratory care professionals was conducted using a validated questionnaire. The focus was on collecting information on participants’ relevant backgrounds and on proper use of EM. Knowledge and proper use of EM were calculated in relation to participants’ demographic and professional characteristics. The statistical analysis using analysis of variance and Student t-test showed that factors that affected knowledge of EM were the respiratory care professional’s age, gender, nationality, and years of experience in intensive care medicine. How many patients these professionals treated using EM also significantly correlated with their knowledge of EM. The survey showed the extent of respiratory care professionals’ knowledge about the proper use of EM. More importantly, the survey also identified important shortfalls in practice of some experienced medical practitioners.

Abstract
In the past decade, researches on Wnt signaling in cell biology have made remarkable progress regarding our understanding of embryonic development, bone formation, muscle injury and repair, neurogenesis, and tumorigenesis. The study also showed that physical activity can reverse age-dependent decline in skeletal muscle, preventing osteoporosis, regenerative neurogenesis, hippocampal function, cognitive ability, and neuromuscular junction formation, and the age-dependent recession is highly correlated with Wnt signaling pathways. However, how the biological processes in cell and physical activity during/following exercise affect the Wnt signaling path of the locomotor system is largely unknown. In this study, we first briefly introduce the important features of the cellular biological processes of exercise in the locomotor system. Then, we discuss Wnt signaling and review the very few studies that have examined Wnt signaling pathways in cellular biological processes of the locomotor system during physical exercise.

Endurance exercise protects skeletal muscle against both doxorubicin-induced and inactivity-induced muscle wasting. Pflugers Arch 2018; 471:441-453. [PMID: 30426248 DOI: 10.1007/s00424-018-2227-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2018] [Revised: 10/09/2018] [Accepted: 10/18/2018] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
Repeated bouts of endurance exercise promotes numerous biochemical adaptations in skeletal muscle fibers resulting in a muscle phenotype that is protected against a variety of homeostatic challenges; these exercise-induced changes in muscle phenotype are often referred to as "exercise preconditioning." Importantly, exercise preconditioning provides protection against several threats to skeletal muscle health including cancer chemotherapy (e.g., doxorubicin) and prolonged muscle inactivity. This review summarizes our current understanding of the mechanisms responsible for exercise-induced protection of skeletal muscle fibers against both doxorubicin-induced muscle wasting and a unique form of inactivity-induced muscle atrophy (i.e., ventilator-induced diaphragm atrophy). Specifically, the first section of this article will highlight the potential mechanisms responsible for exercise-induced protection of skeletal muscle fibers against doxorubicin-induced fiber atrophy. The second segment will discuss the biochemical changes that are responsible for endurance exercise-mediated protection of diaphragm muscle against ventilator-induced diaphragm wasting. In each section, we highlight gaps in our knowledge in hopes of stimulating future research in this evolving field of investigation.
