J Biochem Mol Toxicol 2025; 39:e70108. [PMID: 39692360 DOI: 10.1002/jbt.70108] [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: 06/01/2024] [Revised: 11/22/2024] [Accepted: 12/07/2024] [Indexed: 12/19/2024]
Abstract
Acute lung injury (ALI)/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is associated with high morbidity and mortality in the intensive care unit (ICU) and can cause excessive inflammation. Dexmedetomidine (DEX) is a drug that exerts anti-inflammatory effects. Identifying the anti-inflammatory mechanism of DEX in the context of ALI/ARDS possesses potential significance for the prevention and treatment of ARDS. In this study, DEX was used to treat mouse models of cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated cells. Immunofluorescence, western blot analysis, and flow cytometry were used to detect macrophage phenotypic markers in mice, and western blot analysis, real-time qPCR (RT-qPCR), ELISA, and immunofluorescence were used to detect macrophage phenotype markers in RAW264.7 cells. Flow cytometry was used to detect phenotypic markers of bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDM). Culture medium collected from macrophages was used to cultivate human non-small cell adenocarcinoma epithelial cells (A549) to detect their aquaporins 1 (AQP1) expression and apoptosis status. Western blot analysis was used to detect the activation of the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)/sirtuin 1(SIRT1) signaling pathway both in vivo and in vitro. The regulatory effect of DEX on macrophage phenotype remodeling was detected by knocking down AMPK expression in cells using AMPK shRNA. The results showed that in both in vivo and in vitro experiments, DEX downregulated the expression of M1 markers (tumor necrosis factor-α [TNF-α], nitric oxide synthase [iNOS], and cluster of differentiation [CD]-86) and upregulated the expression of M2 markers (arginase-1 [ARG-1], interleukin [IL]-10, and CD206) in macrophages. The culture medium of macrophages treated with DEX alleviated the edema and apoptosis of A549 cells. DEX activates the AMPK/SIRT1 signaling pathway in macrophages. After AMPK knockdown, the ability of DEX to regulate macrophage phenotype remodeling decreased. Together, this study suggests that DEX regulates macrophage phenotype remodeling by activating the AMPK/SIRT1 pathway, thereby reducing ALI/ARDS.

Abstract
The understanding of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) has evolved greatly since it was first described in a 1967 case series, with several subsequent updates to the definition of the syndrome. Basic science advances and clinical trials have provided insight into the mechanisms of lung injury in ARDS and led to reduced mortality through comprehensive critical care interventions. This review summarizes the current understanding of the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and management of ARDS. Key highlights include a recommended new global definition of ARDS and updated guidelines for managing ARDS on a backbone of established interventions such as low tidal volume ventilation, prone positioning, and a conservative fluid strategy. Future priorities for investigation of ARDS are also highlighted.

Differential Effect of Positive End-Expiratory Pressure Strategies in Patients With ARDS: A Bayesian Analysis of Clinical Subphenotypes. Chest 2024; 166:754-764. [PMID: 38768777 PMCID: PMC11489450 DOI: 10.1016/j.chest.2024.04.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2023] [Revised: 03/22/2024] [Accepted: 04/06/2024] [Indexed: 05/22/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND ARDS is a heterogeneous condition with two subphenotypes identified by different methodologies. Our group similarly identified two ARDS subphenotypes using nine routinely available clinical variables. However, whether these are associated with differential response to treatment has yet to be explored. RESEARCH QUESTION Are there differential responses to positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) strategies on 28-day mortality according to subphenotypes in adult patients with ARDS? STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS We evaluated data from two prior ARDS trials (Higher vs Lower Positive End-Expiratory Pressures in Patients With the ARDS [ALVEOLI] and the Alveolar Recruitment in ARDS Trial [ART]) that compared different PEEP strategies. We classified patients into one of two subphenotypes as described previously. We assessed the differential effect of PEEP with a Bayesian hierarchical logistic model for the primary outcome of 28-day mortality. RESULTS We analyzed data from 1,559 patients with ARDS. Compared with lower PEEP, a higher PEEP strategy resulted in higher 28-day mortality in patients with subphenotype A disease in the ALVEOLI study (OR, 1.61; 95% credible interval [CrI], 0.90-2.94) and ART (OR, 1.73; 95% CrI, 1.01-2.98), with a probability of harm resulting from higher PEEP in this subphenotype of 94.3% and 97.7% in the ALVEOLI and ART studies, respectively. Higher PEEP was not associated with mortality in patients with subphenotype B disease in each trial (OR, 0.95 [95% CrI, 0.51-1.73] and 1.00 [95% CrI, 0.63-1.55], respectively), with probability of benefit of 56.4% and 50.7% in the ALVEOLI and ART studies, respectively. These effects were not modified by Pao2 to Fio2 ratio, driving pressure, or the severity of illness for the cohorts. INTERPRETATION We found evidence of differential response to PEEP strategies across two ARDS subphenotypes, suggesting possible harm with a higher PEEP strategy in one subphenotype. These observations may assist with predictive enrichment in future clinical trials.

Abstract
PURPOSE To familiarize clinicians with the emerging concepts in critical care research of Bayesian thinking and personalized medicine through phenotyping and explain their clinical relevance by highlighting how they address the issues of frequent negative trials and heterogeneity of treatment effect. SUMMARY The past decades have seen many negative (effect-neutral) critical care trials of promising interventions, culminating in calls to improve the field's research through adopting Bayesian thinking and increasing personalization of critical care medicine through phenotyping. Bayesian analyses add interpretive power for clinicians as they summarize treatment effects based on probabilities of benefit or harm, contrasting with conventional frequentist statistics that either affirm or reject a null hypothesis. Critical care trials are beginning to include prospective Bayesian analyses, and many trials have undergone reanalysis with Bayesian methods. Phenotyping seeks to identify treatable traits to target interventions to patients expected to derive benefit. Phenotyping and subphenotyping have gained prominence in the most syndromic and heterogenous critical care disease states, acute respiratory distress syndrome and sepsis. Grouping of patients has been informative across a spectrum of clinically observable physiological parameters, biomarkers, and genomic data. Bayesian thinking and phenotyping are emerging as elements of adaptive clinical trials and predictive enrichment, paving the way for a new era of high-quality evidence. These concepts share a common goal, sifting through the noise of heterogeneity in critical care to increase the value of existing and future research. CONCLUSION The future of critical care medicine will inevitably involve modification of statistical methods through Bayesian analyses and targeted therapeutics via phenotyping. Clinicians must be familiar with these systems that support recommendations to improve decision-making in the gray areas of critical care practice.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation exposes the lung to injurious stresses and strains that can negatively affect clinical outcomes in acute respiratory distress syndrome or cause pulmonary complications after general anesthesia. Excess global lung strain, estimated as increased respiratory system driving pressure, is associated with mortality related to mechanical ventilation. The role of small-dimension biomechanical factors underlying this association and their spatial heterogeneity within the lung are currently unknown. Using four-dimensional computed tomography with a voxel resolution of 2.4 cubic millimeters and a multiresolution convolutional neural network for whole-lung image segmentation, we dynamically measured voxel-wise lung inflation and tidal parenchymal strains. Healthy or injured ovine lungs were evaluated as the mechanical ventilation positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) was titrated from 20 to 2 centimeters of water. The PEEP of minimal driving pressure (PEEPDP) optimized local lung biomechanics. We observed a greater rate of change in nonaerated lung mass with respect to PEEP below PEEPDP compared with PEEP values above this threshold. PEEPDP similarly characterized a breaking point in the relationships between PEEP and SD of local tidal parenchymal strain, the 95th percentile of local strains, and the magnitude of tidal overdistension. These findings advance the understanding of lung collapse, tidal overdistension, and strain heterogeneity as local triggers of ventilator-induced lung injury in large-animal lungs similar to those of humans and could inform the clinical management of mechanical ventilation to improve local lung biomechanics.

Abstract
The role of endothelial cells in acute lung injury (ALI) has been widely elaborated, but little is known about the role of different subtypes of endothelial cells in ALI. ALI models were established by lipopolysaccharide. Single-cell RNA sequencing was used to identify differential molecules in endothelial subtypes and the heterogeneity of lung immune cells. Specific antibodies were used to block insulin-like growth factor binding protein 7 (IGFBP7), and AAVshIGP7 was used to specifically knock down IGFBP7. Here, we found that IGFBP7 was the most differentially expressed molecule in diverse subsets of endothelial cells and that IGFBP7 was strongly associated with inflammatory responses. Elevated IGFBP7 significantly exacerbated barrier dysfunction in ALI, whereas blockade of IGFBP7 partially reversed barrier damage. General capillary cells are the primary source of elevated serum IGFBP7 after ALI. Using single-cell RNA sequencing, we identified significantly increased Clec4nhi neutrophils in mice with ALI, whereas IGFBP7 knockdown significantly reduced infiltration of Clec4nhi cells and mitigated barrier dysfunction in ALI. In addition, we found that IGFBP7 activated the NF-κB signaling axis by promoting phosphorylation and ubiquitination degradation of F-box/WD repeat-containing protein 2 (FBXW2), thereby exacerbating barrier dysfunction in ALI. Taken together, our data indicate that blockade of serum IGFBP7 or IGFBP7 depletion in general capillary cells reversed barrier damage in ALI. Therefore, targeting IGFBP7 depletion could be a novel strategy for treating ALI.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a severe form of acute respiratory failure characterised by extensive inflammatory injury to the alveolocapillary barrier leading to alveolar oedema, impaired gas exchange and, ultimately, hypoxaemia necessitating the use of supplemental oxygen combined with some degree of positive airway pressure. Although much heterogeneity exists regarding the aetiology, localisation and endotypic characterisation of ARDS, what remains largely undisputed is the role of the innate immune system, and in particular of neutrophils, in precipitating and propagating lung injury. Activated neutrophils, recruited to the lung through chemokine gradients, promote injury by releasing oxidants, proteases and neutrophil extracellular traps, which ultimately cause platelet aggregation, microvascular thrombosis and cellular death. Among various neutrophilic chemoattractants, interleukin-8/C-X-C motif ligand 8 and related chemokines, collectively called ELR+ chemokines, acting on neutrophils through the G protein-coupled receptors CXCR1 and CXCR2, are pivotal in orchestrating the neutrophil activation status and chemotaxis in the inflamed lung. This allows efficient elimination of infectious agents while at the same time minimising collateral damage to host tissue. Therefore, understanding how CXCR1 and CXCR2 receptors are regulated is important if we hope to effectively target them for therapeutic use in ARDS. In the following narrative review, we provide an overview of the role of ELR+ chemokines in acute lung injury (ALI) and ARDS, we summarise the relevant regulatory pathways of their cognisant receptors CXCR1/2 and highlight current preclinical and clinical evidence on the therapeutic role of CXCR1 and CXCR2 inhibition in animal models of ALI, as well as in ARDS patients.

Abstract
Mean airway pressure (MAP) is the mean pressure generated in the airway during a single breath (inspiration + expiration), and is displayed on most anaesthesia and intensive care ventilators. This parameter, however, is not usually monitored during mechanical ventilation because it is poorly understood and usually only used in research. One of the main determinants of MAP is PEEP. This is because in respiratory cycles with an I:E ratio of 1:2, expiration is twice as long as inspiration. Although MAP can be used as a surrogate for mean alveolar pressure, these parameters differ considerably in some situations. Recently, MAP has been shown to be a useful prognostic factor for respiratory morbidity and mortality in mechanically ventilated patients of various ages. Low MAP has been associated with a lower incidence of 90-day mortality, shorter ICU stay, and shorter mechanical ventilation time. MAP also affects haemodynamics: there is evidence of a causal relationship between high MAP and low perfusion index, both of which are associated with poor prognosis in mechanically ventilated patients. Elevated MAP values have also been associated with high central venous pressure and lactate, which are indicative of ventilator-associated right ventricular failure and tissue hypoperfusion, respectively. MAP, therefore, is an important parameter to measure in clinical practice. The aim of this review has been to identify the determinants of MAP, the pros and cons of using MAP instead of traditional protective ventilation parameters, and the evidence that supports the use of MAP in clinical practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The arterial pressure of oxygen (PaO2)/inspiratory fraction of oxygen (FiO2) is associated with in-hospital mortality in patients with Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pneumonia. ΔPaO2/FiO2 [the difference between PaO2/FiO2 after 24 h of invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) and PaO2/FiO2 before IMV] is associated with in-hospital mortality. However, the value of PaO2 can be influenced by the end-expiratory pressure (PEEP). To the best of our knowledge, the relationship between the ratio of (ΔPaO2/FiO2)/PEEP and in-hospital mortality remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate their association. METHODS The study was conducted in southern Peru from April 2020 to April 2021. A total of 200 patients with COVID-19 pneumonia requiring IMV were included in the present study. We analyzed the association between (ΔPaO2/FiO2)/PEEP and in-hospital mortality by Cox proportional hazards regression models. RESULTS The median (ΔPaO2/FiO2)/PEEP was 11.78 mmHg/cmH2O [interquartile range (IQR) 8.79-16.08 mmHg/cmH2O], with a range of 1 to 44.36 mmHg/cmH2O. Patients were divided equally into two groups [low group (< 11.80 mmHg/cmH2O), and high group (≥ 11.80 mmHg/cmH2O)] according to the (ΔPaO2/FiO2)/PEEP ratio. In-hospital mortality was lower in the high (ΔPaO2/FiO2)/PEEP group than in the low (ΔPaO2/FiO2)/PEEP group [18 (13%) vs. 38 (38%)]; hazard ratio (HR), 0.33 [95% confidence intervals (CI), 0.17-0.61, P < 0.001], adjusted HR, 0.32 (95% CI, 0.11-0.94, P = 0.038). The finding that the high (ΔPaO2/FiO2)/PEEP group exhibited a lower risk of in-hospital mortality compared to the low (ΔPaO2/FiO2)/PEEP group was consistent with the results from the sensitivity analysis. After adjusting for confounding variables, we found that each unit increase in (ΔPaO2/FiO2)/PEEP was associated with a 12% reduction in the risk of in-hospital mortality (HR, 0.88, 95%CI, 0.80-0.97, P = 0.013). CONCLUSIONS The (ΔPaO2/FiO2)/PEEP ratio was associated with in-hospital mortality in patients with COVID-19 pneumonia. (ΔPaO2/FiO2)/PEEP might be a marker of disease severity in COVID-19 patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Berlin definition of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) includes only clinical characteristics. Understanding unique patient pathobiology may allow personalized treatment. We aimed to define and describe ARDS phenotypes/endotypes combining clinical and pathophysiologic parameters from a Canadian ARDS cohort. METHODS A cohort of adult ARDS patients from multiple sites in Calgary, Canada, had plasma cytokine levels and clinical parameters measured in the first 24 h of ICU admission. We used a latent class model (LCM) to group the patients into several ARDS subgroups and identified the features differentiating those subgroups. We then discuss the subgroup effect on 30 day mortality. RESULTS The LCM suggested three subgroups (n1 = 64, n2 = 86, and n3 = 30), and 23 out of 69 features made these subgroups distinct. The top five discriminating features were IL-8, IL-6, IL-10, TNF-a, and serum lactate. Mortality distinctively varied between subgroups. Individual clinical characteristics within the subgroup associated with mortality included mean PaO2/FiO2 ratio, pneumonia, platelet count, and bicarbonate negatively associated with mortality, while lactate, creatinine, shock, chronic kidney disease, vasopressor/ionotropic use, low GCS at admission, and sepsis were positively associated. IL-8 and Apache II were individual markers strongly associated with mortality (Area Under the Curve = 0.84). PERSPECTIVE ARDS subgrouping using biomarkers and clinical characteristics is useful for categorizing a heterogeneous condition into several homogenous patient groups. This study found three ARDS subgroups using LCM; each subgroup has a different level of mortality. This model may also apply to developing further trial design, prognostication, and treatment selection.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), first described in 1967, is characterized by acute respiratory failure causing profound hypoxemia, decreased pulmonary compliance, and bilateral CXR infiltrates. After several descriptions, the Berlin definition was adopted in 2012, which established three categories of severity according to hypoxemia (mild, moderate and severe), specified temporal aspects for diagnosis, and incorporated the use of non-invasive ventilation. The COVID-19 pandemic led to changes in ARDS management, focusing on continuous monitoring of oxygenation and on utilization of high-flow oxygen therapy and lung ultrasound. In 2021, a New Global Definition based on the Berlin definition of ARDS was proposed, which included a category for non-intubated patients, considered the use of SpO2, and established no particular requirement for oxygenation support in regions with limited resources. Although debates persist, the continuous evolution seeks to adapt to clinical and epidemiological needs, and to the search of personalized treatments.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Improving the efficiency of clinical trials in acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (HRF) depends on enrichment strategies that minimize enrollment of patients who quickly resolve with existing care and focus on patients at high risk for persistent HRF. We aimed to develop parsimonious models predicting risk of persistent HRF using routine data from ICU admission and select research immune biomarkers. DESIGN Prospective cohorts for derivation ( n = 630) and external validation ( n = 511). SETTING Medical and surgical ICUs at two U.S. medical centers. PATIENTS Adults with acute HRF defined as new invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) and hypoxemia on the first calendar day after ICU admission. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS We evaluated discrimination, calibration, and practical utility of models predicting persistent HRF risk (defined as ongoing IMV and hypoxemia on the third calendar day after admission): 1) a clinical model with least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) selecting Pa o2 /F io2 , vasopressors, mean arterial pressure, bicarbonate, and acute respiratory distress syndrome as predictors; 2) a model adding interleukin-6 (IL-6) to clinical predictors; and 3) a comparator model with Pa o2 /F io2 alone, representing an existing strategy for enrichment. Forty-nine percent and 69% of patients had persistent HRF in derivation and validation sets, respectively. In validation, both LASSO (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, 0.68; 95% CI, 0.64-0.73) and LASSO + IL-6 (0.71; 95% CI, 0.66-0.76) models had better discrimination than Pa o2 /F io2 (0.64; 95% CI, 0.59-0.69). Both models underestimated risk in lower risk deciles, but exhibited better calibration at relevant risk thresholds. Evaluating practical utility, both LASSO and LASSO + IL-6 models exhibited greater net benefit in decision curve analysis, and greater sample size savings in enrichment analysis, compared with Pa o2 /F io2 . The added utility of LASSO + IL-6 model over LASSO was modest. CONCLUSIONS Parsimonious, interpretable models that predict persistent HRF may improve enrichment of trials testing HRF-targeted therapies and warrant future validation.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is an acute inflammatory lung injury characterized by severe hypoxemic respiratory failure, bilateral opacities on chest imaging, and low lung compliance. ARDS is a heterogeneous syndrome that is the common end point of a wide variety of predisposing conditions, with complex pathophysiology and underlying mechanisms. Routine management of ARDS is centered on lung-protective ventilation strategies such as low tidal volume ventilation and targeting low airway pressures to avoid exacerbation of lung injury, as well as a conservative fluid management strategy.

Lung tissue expression of epithelial injury markers is associated with acute lung injury severity but does not discriminate sepsis from ARDS. Respir Res 2024; 25:129. [PMID: 38500106 PMCID: PMC10949726 DOI: 10.1186/s12931-024-02761-x] [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: 09/12/2023] [Accepted: 03/08/2024] [Indexed: 03/20/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a common cause of respiratory failure in critically ill patients, and diffuse alveolar damage (DAD) is considered its histological hallmark. Sepsis is one of the most common aetiology of ARDS with the highest case-fatality rate. Identifying ARDS patients and differentiate them from other causes of acute respiratory failure remains a challenge. To address this, many studies have focused on identifying biomarkers that can help assess lung epithelial injury. However, there is scarce information available regarding the tissue expression of these markers. Evaluating the expression of elafin, RAGE, and SP-D in lung tissue offers a potential bridge between serological markers and the underlying histopathological changes. Therefore, we hypothesize that the expression of epithelial injury markers varies between sepsis and ARDS as well as according to its severity. METHODS We compared the post-mortem lung tissue expression of the epithelial injury markers RAGE, SP-D, and elafin of patients that died of sepsis, ARDS, and controls that died from non-pulmonary causes. Lung tissue was collected during routine autopsy and protein expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry. We also assessed the lung injury by a semi-quantitative analysis. RESULTS We observed that all features of DAD were milder in septic group compared to ARDS group. Elafin tissue expression was increased and SP-D was decreased in the sepsis and ARDS groups. Severe ARDS expressed higher levels of elafin and RAGE, and they were negatively correlated with PaO2/FiO2 ratio, and positively correlated with bronchopneumonia percentage and hyaline membrane score. RAGE tissue expression was negatively correlated with mechanical ventilation duration in both ARDS and septic groups. In septic patients, elafin was positively correlated with ICU admission length, SP-D was positively correlated with serum lactate and RAGE was correlated with C-reactive protein. CONCLUSIONS Lung tissue expression of elafin and RAGE, but not SP-D, is associated with ARDS severity, but does not discriminate sepsis patients from ARDS patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Within primary ARDS, SARS-CoV-2-associated ARDS (C-ARDS) emerged in late 2019, reaching its peak during the subsequent two years. Recent efforts in ARDS research have concentrated on phenotyping this heterogeneous syndrome to enhance comprehension of its pathophysiology. METHODS AND RESULTS A retrospective study was conducted on C-ARDS patients from April 2020 to February 2021, encompassing 110 participants with a mean age of 63.2 ± 11.92 (26-83 years). Of these, 61.2% (68) were male, and 25% (17) experienced severe ARDS, resulting in a mortality rate of 47.3% (52). Ventilation settings, arterial blood gases, and chest X-ray (CXR) were evaluated on the first day of invasive mechanical ventilation and between days two and three. CXR images were scrutinized using a convolutional neural network (CNN). A binary logistic regression model for predicting C-ARDS mortality was developed based on the most influential variables: age, PaO2/FiO2 ratio (P/F) on days one and three, CNN-extracted CXR features, and age. Initial performance assessment on test data (23 patients out of the 110) revealed an area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of 0.862 with a 95% confidence interval (0.654-0.969). CONCLUSION Integrating data available in all intensive care units enables the prediction of C-ARDS mortality by utilizing evolving P/F ratios and CXR. This approach can assist in tailoring treatment plans and initiating early discussions to escalate care and extracorporeal life support. Machine learning algorithms for imaging classification can uncover otherwise inaccessible patterns, potentially evolving into another form of ARDS phenotyping. The combined features of these algorithms and clinical variables demonstrate superior performance compared to either element alone.

Abstract
Acute lung injury (ALI) is a complex disease with numerous causes. This review begins with a discussion of disease development from direct or indirect pulmonary insults, as well as varied pathogenesis. The heterogeneous nature of ALI is then elaborated upon, including its epidemiology, clinical manifestations, potential biomarkers, and genetic contributions. Although no medication is currently approved for this devastating illness, supportive care and pharmacological intervention for ALI treatment are summarized, followed by an assessment of the pathophysiological gap between human ALI and animal models. Lastly, current research progress on advanced nanomedicines for ALI therapeutics in preclinical and clinical settings is reviewed, demonstrating new opportunities towards developing an effective treatment for ALI.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a common condition in intensive care medicine. Various intra- and extrapulmonal causes may trigger an epithelial and endothelial permeability increase, which leads to impaired gas exchange due to fluid overload of the alveoli and transmigration of leukocytes. This results in hypoxemia and hypercapnia, as well as deleterious consequences for the macro- and microcirculation with the risk of multi-organ failure and high mortality. This review summarizes ARDS pathophysiology and clinical consequences.

Abstract
Background: Since publication of the 2012 Berlin definition of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), several developments have supported the need for an expansion of the definition, including the use of high-flow nasal oxygen, the expansion of the use of pulse oximetry in place of arterial blood gases, the use of ultrasound for chest imaging, and the need for applicability in resource-limited settings. Methods: A consensus conference of 32 critical care ARDS experts was convened, had six virtual meetings (June 2021 to March 2022), and subsequently obtained input from members of several critical care societies. The goal was to develop a definition that would 1) identify patients with the currently accepted conceptual framework for ARDS, 2) facilitate rapid ARDS diagnosis for clinical care and research, 3) be applicable in resource-limited settings, 4) be useful for testing specific therapies, and 5) be practical for communication to patients and caregivers. Results: The committee made four main recommendations: 1) include high-flow nasal oxygen with a minimum flow rate of ⩾30 L/min; 2) use PaO2:FiO2 ⩽ 300 mm Hg or oxygen saturation as measured by pulse oximetry SpO2:FiO2 ⩽ 315 (if oxygen saturation as measured by pulse oximetry is ⩽97%) to identify hypoxemia; 3) retain bilateral opacities for imaging criteria but add ultrasound as an imaging modality, especially in resource-limited areas; and 4) in resource-limited settings, do not require positive end-expiratory pressure, oxygen flow rate, or specific respiratory support devices. Conclusions: We propose a new global definition of ARDS that builds on the Berlin definition. The recommendations also identify areas for future research, including the need for prospective assessments of the feasibility, reliability, and prognostic validity of the proposed global definition.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is an acute diffuse inflammatory lung injury characterized by the damage of alveolar epithelial cells and pulmonary capillary endothelial cells. It is mainly manifested by non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema, resulting from intrapulmonary and extrapulmonary risk factors. ARDS is often accompanied by immune system disturbance, both locally in the lungs and systemically. As a common heterogeneous disease in critical care medicine, researchers are often faced with the failure of clinical trials. Latent class analysis had been used to compensate for poor outcomes and found that targeted treatment after subgrouping contribute to ARDS therapy. The subphenotype of ARDS caused by sepsis has garnered attention due to its refractory nature and detrimental consequences. Sepsis stands as the most predominant extrapulmonary cause of ARDS, accounting for approximately 32% of ARDS cases. Studies indicate that sepsis-induced ARDS tends to be more severe than ARDS caused by other factors, leading to poorer prognosis and higher mortality rate. This comprehensive review delves into the immunological mechanisms of sepsis-ARDS, the heterogeneity of ARDS and existing research on targeted treatments, aiming to providing mechanism understanding and exploring ideas for accurate treatment of ARDS or sepsis-ARDS.

Abstract
Although the defining elements of "acute respiratory distress syndrome" (ARDS) have been known for over a century, the syndrome was first described in 1967. Since then, despite several revisions of its conceptual definition, it remains a matter of debate whether ARDS is a discrete nosological entity. After almost 60 years, it is appropriate to examine how critical care has modeled this fascinating syndrome and affected patient's outcome. Given that the diagnostic criteria of ARDS (e.g., increased pulmonary vascular permeability and diffuse alveolar damage) are difficult to ascertain in clinical practice, we believe that a step forward would be to standardize the assessment of pulmonary and extrapulmonary involvement in ARDS to ensure that each patient can receive the most appropriate and effective treatment. The selection of treatments based on arbitrary ranges of PaO2/FiO2 lacks sufficient sensitivity to individualize patient care.

Abstract
Cells are the smallest units that make up living organisms, which constantly undergo the processes of proliferation, differentiation, senescence and death. Dead cells need to be removed in time to maintain the homeostasis of the organism and keep it healthy. This process is called efferocytosis. If the process fails, this may cause different types of diseases. More and more evidence suggests that a faulty efferocytosis process is closely related to the pathological processes of respiratory diseases. In this review, we will first introduce the process and the related mechanisms of efferocytosis of the macrophage. Secondly, we will propose some methods that can regulate the function of efferocytosis at different stages of the process. Next, we will discuss the role of efferocytosis in different lung diseases and the related treatment approaches. Finally, we will summarize the drugs that have been applied in clinical practice that can act upon efferocytosis, in order to provide new ideas for the treatment of lung diseases.

Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has caused the death of millions and many more have been infected worldwide. The causative virus, SARS-CoV-2, affects the lung where it elicits an aggressive inflammatory response leading to respiratory failure in severe cases. This infection has been linked to pulmonary fibrosis, a process characterized by fibroproliferation and the exaggerated deposition of collagen and other extracellular matrices. These events damage the lung architecture, especially its gas-exchanging units, leading to hypoxemic respiratory failure. The mechanisms by which the virus affects the lung remain incompletely understood, but it is postulated that after entering the airways, the virus binds to Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) receptors on the surface of epithelial cells, not only stimulating oxidative stress and inflammation, but also promoting the expression of soluble pro-fibrotic factors responsible for the accumulation of fibroblasts, their activation into myofibroblasts, and their unregulated expression of extracellular matrices. These events may trigger the rapid progression or exacerbation of underlying interstitial lung disorders or promote fibrosis in a previously healthy lung. Although the natural progression of such conditions cannot always be predicted, fibrosis may progress even after the virus has been eliminated or, in cases where it does not progress, may become irreversible, leading to long-standing symptoms like shortness of breath and exercise intolerance resulting from loss of lung function. Although COVID-19 related pulmonary fibrosis is not common, preventive measures like vaccination are encouraged, as they are expected to reduce infection or its severity, thereby decreasing the possibility of life-changing respiratory conditions such as pulmonary fibrosis.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a leading cause of respiratory failure and death in patients in the intensive care unit. Experimentally, acute lung injury resolution depends on the repair of mitochondrial oxidant damage by the mitochondrial quality control (MQC) pathways, mitochondrial biogenesis, and mitophagy, but nothing is known about this in the human lung. In a case-control autopsy study, we compared the lungs of subjects dying of ARDS (n = 8; cases) and age-/gender-matched subjects dying of nonpulmonary causes (n = 7; controls). Slides were examined by light microscopy and immunofluorescence confocal microscopy, randomly probing for co-localization of citrate synthase with markers of oxidant stress, mitochondrial DNA damage, mitophagy, and mitochondrial biogenesis. ARDS lungs showed diffuse alveolar damage with edema, hyaline membranes, and neutrophils. Compared with controls, a high degree of mitochondrial oxidant damage was seen in type 2 epithelial (AT2) cells and alveolar macrophages by 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine and malondialdehyde co-staining with citrate synthase. In ARDS, antioxidant protein heme oxygenase-1 and DNA repair enzyme N-glycosylase/DNA lyase (Ogg1) were found in alveolar macrophages but not in AT2 cells. Moreover, MAP1 light chain-3 (LC3) and serine/threonine-protein kinase (Pink1) staining were absent in AT2 cells, suggesting a mitophagy failure. Nuclear respiratory factor-1 staining was missing in the alveolar region, suggesting impaired mitochondrial biogenesis. Widespread hyperproliferation of AT2 cells in ARDS could suggest defective differentiation into type 1 cells. ARDS lungs show profuse mitochondrial oxidant DNA damage but little evidence of MQC activity in AT2 epithelium. Because these pathways are important for acute lung injury resolution, our findings support MQC as a novel pharmacologic target for ARDS resolution.

Abstract
Diffuse alveolar damage (DAD), which represents the pathologic changes seen after acute lung injury, is caused by damage to all three layers of the alveolar wall and can ultimately result in alveolar collapse with loss of the normal pulmonary architecture. DAD has an acute phase that predominantly manifests as airspace disease at CT owing to filling of the alveoli with cells, plasma fluids, and hyaline membranes. DAD then evolves into a heterogeneous organizing phase, with mixed airspace and interstitial disease characterized by volume loss, architectural distortion, fibrosis, and parenchymal loss. Patients with DAD have a severe clinical course and typically require prolonged mechanical ventilation, which may result in ventilator-induced lung injury. In those patients who survive DAD, the lungs will remodel over time, but most will have residual findings at chest CT. Organizing pneumonia (OP) is a descriptive term for a histologic pattern characterized by intra-alveolar fibroblast plugs. The significance and pathogenesis of OP are controversial. Some authors regard it as part of a spectrum of acute lung injury, while others consider it a marker of acute or subacute lung injury. At CT, OP manifests with various forms of airspace disease that are most commonly bilateral and relatively homogeneous in appearance at individual time points. Patients with OP most often have a mild clinical course, although some may have residual findings at CT. In patients with DAD and OP, imaging findings can be combined with clinical information to suggest the diagnosis in many cases, with biopsy reserved for difficult cases with atypical findings or clinical manifestations. To best participate in the multidisciplinary approach to patients with lung injury, radiologists must not only recognize these entities but also describe them with consistent and meaningful terminology, examples of which are emphasized in the article. © RSNA, 2023 See the invited commentary by Kligerman et al in this issue.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Although there has been extensive research on mechanical ventilation for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), treatment remains mainly supportive. Recent studies and new ventilatory modes have been proposed to manage patients with ARDS; however, the clinical impact of these strategies remains uncertain and not clearly supported by guidelines. The aim of this narrative review is to provide an overview and update on ventilatory management for patients with ARDS. AREAS COVERED This article reviews the literature regarding mechanical ventilation in ARDS. A comprehensive overview of the principal settings for the ventilator parameters involved is provided as well as a report on the differences between controlled and assisted ventilation. Additionally, new modes of assisted ventilation are presented and discussed. The evidence concerning rescue strategies, including recruitment maneuvers and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support, is analyzed. PubMed, EBSCO, and the Cochrane Library were searched up until June 2023, for relevant literature. EXPERT OPINION Available evidence for mechanical ventilation in cases of ARDS suggests the use of a personalized mechanical ventilation strategy. Although promising, new modes of assisted mechanical ventilation are still under investigation and guidelines do not recommend rescue strategies as the standard of care. Further research on this topic is required.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a rapidly progressive form of respiratory failure that accounts for 10% of admissions to the ICU and is associated with approximately 40% mortality in severe cases. Despite significant mortality and healthcare burden, the mainstay of management remains supportive care. The recent pandemic of SARS-CoV-2 has re-ignited a worldwide interest in exploring the pathophysiology of ARDS, looking for innovative ideas to treat this disease. Recently, many trials have been published utilizing different pharmacotherapy targets; however, the long-term benefits of these agents remain unknown. Metabolomics profiling and stem cell transplantation offer strong enthusiasm and may completely change the outlook of ARDS management in the near future.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We aimed to identify new classes in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) using physiological and clinical variables and to explore heterogeneity in the effects of glucocorticoid therapy between classes. METHODS Using the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care-IV database, we identified patients with ARDS. Potential profile analysis was used to identify classes with physiological and clinical data as delineating variables. Baseline characteristics and clinical outcomes were compared between classes. The effect of glucocorticoid treatment was explored by stratifying by class and glucocorticoid treatment. RESULTS From 2008 to 2019, 1104 patients with ARDS were enrolled in the study. The 2-class potential analysis model had the best fit (P < 0.0001), with 78% of patients falling into class 1 and 22% into class 2. Additional classes did not improve the model fit. Patients in class 2 had higher anion gap, lactate, creatinine, and glucose levels and lower residual base, blood pressure, and bicarbonate compared with class 1. In-hospital mortality and 28-day mortality were significantly higher among patients in class 2 than those in class 1 (P < 0.001). Heterogeneity of glucocorticoid treatment was observed, stratified by class and treatment, with no significant effect in class 1 (P = 0.496), increased mortality in class 2 (P = 0.001), and a significant interaction (P = 0.0381). In class 2, 28-day survival was significantly lower with glucocorticoid treatment compared with no hormone treatment (P = 0.001). CONCLUSION We used clinical and physiological variables to identify two classes of non-COVID-19-associated ARDS with different baseline characteristics and clinical outcomes. The response to glucocorticoid therapy varied among different classes of patients.

Abstract
Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) may severely affect respiratory function and evolve to life-threatening hypoxia. The clinical experience led to the implementation of standardized protocols assuming similarity to severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS-CoV-2). Understanding the histopathological and functional patterns is essential to better understand the pathophysiology of COVID-19 and then develop new therapeutic strategies. Epithelial and endothelial cell damage can result from the virus attack, thus leading to immune-mediated response. Pulmonary histopathological findings show the presence of Mallory bodies, alveolar coating cells with nuclear atypia, reactive pneumocytes, reparative fibrosis, intra-alveolar hemorrhage, moderate inflammatory infiltrates, micro-abscesses, microthrombus, hyaline membrane fragments, and emphysema-like lung areas. COVID-19 patients may present different respiratory stages from silent to critical hypoxemia, are associated with the degree of pulmonary parenchymal involvement, thus yielding alteration of ventilation and perfusion relationships. This review aims to: discuss the morphological (histopathological and radiological) and functional findings of COVID-19 compared to acute interstitial pneumonia, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), and high-altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE), four entities that share common clinical traits, but have peculiar pathophysiological features with potential implications to their clinical management.

Abstract
Acute respiratory failure occurs in 0.05% to 0.3% of pregnancies and is precipitated by pulmonary and nonpulmonary insults. Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is the rapid onset of hypoxemic respiratory failure associated with bilateral pulmonary opacities on chest imaging attributed to noncardiogenic pulmonary edema. The pathophysiological features of ARDS include hypoxemia, diminished lung volumes, and decreased lung compliance. While there is a paucity of data concerning ARDS in the pregnant individual, management principles do not vary significantly between pregnant and nonpregnant patients. The following review will discuss the diagnosis and management of the pregnant patient with ARDS.

Combination of computed tomography imaging pattern and severity of respiratory failure as factors associated with prognosis for acute exacerbation of idiopathic chronic fibrosing interstitial pneumonia. PLoS One 2023; 18:e0279878. [PMID: 36827247 PMCID: PMC9955596 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0279878] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2021] [Accepted: 12/18/2022] [Indexed: 02/25/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The prognosis of idiopathic chronic fibrotic interstitial pneumonitis (CFIP) in patients with acute exacerbation (AE) is variable. We examined whether the imaging pattern on thoracic computed tomography (CT) or the severity of respiratory failure with AE-CFIP is associated with short-term prognosis. METHODS Patients admitted to two university hospitals were retrospectively analyzed and divided into derivation and validation cohorts. The distribution of newly appearing parenchymal abnormalities on thoracic CT was classified into peripheral, multifocal, and diffuse patterns. Respiratory failure was defined as severe if a fraction of inspired oxygen ≥ 0.5 was required to maintain percutaneous oxygen saturation ≥ 90% on admission. Factors associated with 90 day-mortality were analyzed using univariate and Cox proportional hazard regression. RESULTS In 59 patients with AE-CFIP of the derivation cohort, diffuse pattern on CT was associated with higher mortality within 90 days (43%) than peripheral/multifocal pattern (17%, p = 0.03). Additionally, compared with non-severe failure, severe respiratory failure was associated with higher mortality (47% vs. 21%, p = 0.06). Cox proportional hazard regression analysis demonstrated that a combination of diffuse pattern on CT and severe respiratory failure was associated with the poorest prognosis (hazard ratio [HR] 3.51 [interquartile range 1.26-9.80], p = 0.016) in the derivation cohort, which was confirmed in the validation cohort (n = 31, HR 4.30 [interquartile range 1.51-12.2], p = 0.006). CONCLUSION The combination of imaging pattern on thoracic CT and severity of respiratory failure was associated with the prognosis of idiopathic AE-CFIP.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a common and life-threatening cause of respiratory failure. Despite decades of research, there are no effective pharmacologic therapies to treat this disease process and mortality remains high. The shortcomings of prior translational research efforts have been increasingly attributed to the heterogeneity of this complex syndrome, which has led to an increased focus on elucidating the mechanisms underlying the interpersonal heterogeneity of ARDS. This shift in focus aims to move the field towards personalized medicine by defining subgroups of ARDS patients with distinct biology, termed endotypes, to quickly identify patients that are most likely to benefit from mechanism targeted treatments. In this review, we first provide a historical perspective and review the key clinical trials that have advanced ARDS treatment. We then review the key challenges that exist with regards to the identification of treatable traits and the implementation of personalized medicine approaches in ARDS. Lastly, we discuss potential strategies and recommendations for future research that we believe will aid in both understanding the molecular pathogenesis of ARDS and the development of personalized treatment approaches.

Abstract
Over the last decade, the management of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) has made considerable progress both regarding supportive and pharmacologic therapies. Lung protective mechanical ventilation is the cornerstone of ARDS management. Current recommendations on mechanical ventilation in ARDS include the use of low tidal volume (VT) 4-6 mL/kg of predicted body weight, plateau pressure (PPLAT) < 30 cmH2O, and driving pressure (∆P) < 14 cmH2O. Moreover, positive end-expiratory pressure should be individualized. Recently, variables such as mechanical power and transpulmonary pressure seem promising for limiting ventilator-induced lung injury and optimizing ventilator settings. Rescue therapies such as recruitment maneuvers, vasodilators, prone positioning, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, and extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal have been considered for patients with severe ARDS. Regarding pharmacotherapies, despite more than 50 years of research, no effective treatment has yet been found. However, the identification of ARDS sub-phenotypes has revealed that some pharmacologic therapies that have failed to provide benefits when considering all patients with ARDS can show beneficial effects when these patients were stratified into specific sub-populations; for example, those with hyperinflammation/hypoinflammation. The aim of this narrative review is to provide an overview on current advances in the management of ARDS from mechanical ventilation to pharmacological treatments, including personalized therapy.

Am J Respir Crit Care Med 2023; 207:255-260.

Abstract
The definition of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) has a somewhat controversial history, with some even questioning the need for the term "ARDS." This controversy has been amplified by the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic given the marked increase in the incidence of ARDS, the relatively new treatment modalities that do not fit neatly with the Berlin definition, and the difficulty of making the diagnosis in resource-limited settings. We propose that attempts to revise the definition of ARDS should apply the framework originally developed by psychologists and social scientists and used by other medical disciplines to generate and assess definitions of clinical syndromes that do not have gold standards. This framework is structured around measures of reliability, feasibility, and validity. Future revisions of the definition of ARDS should contain the purpose, the methodology, and the framework for empirically testing any proposed definition. Attempts to revise critical illness syndromes' definitions usually hope to make them "better"; our recommendation is that future attempts use the same criteria used by other fields in defining what "better" means.

Diagnostic value of transpulmonary thermodilution measurements for acute respiratory distress syndrome in a pig model of septic shock. J Transl Med 2022; 20:617. [PMID: 36564822 PMCID: PMC9789654 DOI: 10.1186/s12967-022-03793-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2022] [Accepted: 11/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND No direct approach assessing pulmonary vascular permeability exists in the current therapeutic strategy for patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Transpulmonary thermodilution measures hemodynamic parameters such as pulmonary vascular permeability index and extravascular lung water, enabling clinicians to assess ARDS severity. The aim of this study is to explore a precise transpulmonary thermodilution-based criteria for quantifying the severity of lung injury using a clinically relevant septic-ARDS pig model. METHODS Thirteen female pigs (weight: 31 ± 2 kg) were intubated, mechanically ventilated under anesthesia, and either assigned to septic shock-induced ARDS or control group. To confirm the development of ARDS, we performed computed tomography (CT) imaging in randomly selected animals. The pulmonary vascular permeability index, extravascular lung water, and other hemodynamic parameters were consecutively measured during the development of septic lung injury. Lung status was categorized as normal (partial pressure of oxygen/fraction of inspired oxygen ≥ 400), or injured at different degrees: pre-ARDS (300-400), mild-to-moderate ARDS (100-300), or severe ARDS (< 100). We also measured serum inflammatory cytokines and high mobility group box 1 levels during the experiment to explore the relationship of the pulmonary vascular permeability index with these inflammatory markers. RESULTS Using CT image, we verified that animals subjected to ARDS presented an extent of consolidation in bilateral gravitationally dependent gradient that expands over time, with diffuse ground-glass opacification. Further, the post-mortem histopathological analysis for lung tissue identified the key features of diffuse alveolar damage in all animals subjected to ARDS. Both pulmonary vascular permeability index and extravascular lung water increased significantly, according to disease severity. Receiver operating characteristic analysis demonstrated that a cut-off value of 3.9 for the permeability index provided optimal sensitivity and specificity for predicting severe ARDS (area under the curve: 0.99, 95% confidence interval, 0.98-1.00; sensitivity = 100%, and specificity = 92.5%). The pulmonary vascular permeability index was superior in its diagnostic value than extravascular lung water. Furthermore, the pulmonary vascular permeability index was significantly associated with multiple parameters reflecting clinicopathological changes in animals with ARDS. CONCLUSION The pulmonary vascular permeability index is an effective indicator to measure septic ARDS severity.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) were identified more than 50 years ago, and research advances have promoted the translation of pre-clinical studies into clinical settings in several diseases. However, we are only starting to uncover the local factors that regulate cell phenotype, cell function, and cell viability across tissues following administration in different diseases. Advances in pre-clinical and translational studies suggest that the host environment, especially inflammatory active environments, plays a significant role in directing the infused MSCs towards different phenotypes with different functions. This can significantly effect their therapeutic efficacy. One way to study this interaction between the host environment and the infused cells is to expose MSCs ex vivo to patient samples such as serum or bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. Using this approach, it has been demonstrated that MSCs are very sensitive to different host factors such as pathogens, inflammatory cytokines, and extra cellular matrix properties. By understanding how different local host factors effect MSC function it will open possibilities to select specific patient sub-groups that are more likely to respond to this type of treatment and will also open possibilities to prime the local host environment to increase viability and to enrich for a specific MSC phenotype. Here, we aim to review the current understanding of the interaction of MSCs with the host microenvironment. To narrow the scope of this mini review, the focus will be on the pulmonary microenvironment, with a specific focus on the diseases acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and cystic fibrosis (CF).

Abstract
Objective Evidence only proves low surpasses high tidal volume (V T) for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Intermediate V T is a common setting for ARDS patients and has been demonstrated as effective as low V T in non-ARDS patients. The effectiveness of intermediate V T in ARDS has not been studied and is the objective of this study. Design A retrospective cohort study. Setting Five ICUs with their totally 130 beds in Taiwan. Patients or participants ARDS patients under invasive ventilation. Interventions No. Main variables of interest 28-D mortality. Result Totally 382 patients, with 6958 ventilator settings eligible for lung protection, were classified into low (mean V T = 6.7 ml/kg), intermediate (mean V T = 8.9 ml/kg) and high (mean V T = 11.2 ml/kg) V T groups. With similar baseline ARDS and ICU severities, intermediate and low V T groups did not differ in 28-D mortality (47% vs. 63%, P = 0.06) or other outcomes such as 90-D mortality, ventilator-free days, ventilator-dependence rate. Multivariate analysis revealed high V T was independently associated with 28-D and 90-D mortality, but intermediate V T was not significantly associated with 28-D mortality (HR 1.34, CI 0.92-1.97, P = 0.13) or 90-D mortality. When the intermediate and low V T groups were matched in propensity scores (n = 66 for each group), their outcomes were also not significantly different. Conclusion Intermediate V T, with its outcomes similar to small V T, is an acceptable option for ventilated ARDS patients. This conclusion needs verification through clinical trials.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is characterised by acute hypoxaemic respiratory failure with bilateral infiltrates on chest imaging, which is not fully explained by cardiac failure or fluid overload. ARDS is defined by the Berlin criteria. In this Series paper the diagnosis, management, outcomes, and long-term sequelae of ARDS are reviewed. Potential limitations of the ARDS definition and evidence that could inform future revisions are considered. Guideline recommendations, evidence, and uncertainties in relation to ARDS management are discussed. The future of ARDS strives towards a precision medicine approach, and the framework of treatable traits in ARDS diagnosis and management is explored.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a common clinical syndrome of acute respiratory failure as a result of diffuse lung inflammation and oedema. ARDS can be precipitated by a variety of causes. The pathophysiology of ARDS is complex and involves the activation and dysregulation of multiple overlapping and interacting pathways of injury, inflammation, and coagulation, both in the lung and systemically. Mechanical ventilation can contribute to a cycle of lung injury and inflammation. Resolution of inflammation is a coordinated process that requires downregulation of proinflammatory pathways and upregulation of anti-inflammatory pathways. The heterogeneity of the clinical syndrome, along with its biology, physiology, and radiology, has increasingly been recognised and incorporated into identification of phenotypes. A precision-medicine approach that improves the identification of more homogeneous ARDS phenotypes should lead to an improved understanding of its pathophysiological mechanisms and how they differ from patient to patient.

Abstract
Background Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been frequently complicated by severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) with prolonged invasive ventilation. While respiratory system compliance and lung recruitability have been described within the first days after ICU admission, data about their longitudinal changes are still limited. Therefore, we conducted this study to assess the evolution of respiratory system compliance and lung recruitability in patients with COVID-19-related ARDS. Method We conducted a prospective single-center study in patients admitted for COVID-19-related ARDS during the first wave of the pandemic, from March 16, 2020 to April 10, 2020. Respiratory system compliance was calculated daily at clinical positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) during passive breathing. The potential for lung recruitment was assessed by measuring the volume derecruited between PEEP 15 cmH2O and 5 cmH2O, and using the calculation of the recruitment-to-inflation ratio (R/I ratio). Recruitable lung was considered when the R/I ratio was at least 0.5. The primary outcome was the evolution of respiratory mechanics over time. The secondary outcome was the evolution of lung recruitability over time. Results Thirty-two patients were included in this study. The respiratory mechanics were assessed 222 times (7 ± 5 times per patient). Respiratory system compliance at clinical PEEP was 29.1 mL/cmH2O (interquartile range [IQR]: 24.1-33.9 mL/cmH2O) and decreased significantly over time (P <0.0001). Lung recruitability was assessed in 22 out of the 32 patients (60 assessments). The median volume derecruited between PEEP 15 cmH2O and 5 cmH2O was 246.8 mL (IQR: 180.8-352.2 mL) and the median R/I ratio was 0.56 (IQR: 0.39-0.73). Neither changed significantly over time. The proportion of patients with recruitable lung was 50.0% (6/12) within the first 3 days after intubation, 69.2% (9/13) between day 4 and day 7, and 66.7% (8/12) after day 7 (P=0.7934). Conclusions In our cohort, respiratory system compliance was low and decreased over time. The potential for lung recruitment was high and persisted despite prolonged mechanical ventilation, suggesting that maintaining high PEEP levels in the later course of COVID-19 could be adequate.

Opportunities for improved clinical trial designs in acute respiratory distress syndrome. THE LANCET. RESPIRATORY MEDICINE 2022; 10:916-924. [PMID: 36057279 DOI: 10.1016/s2213-2600(22)00294-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2022] [Revised: 07/02/2022] [Accepted: 07/19/2022] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
The acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a common critical illness syndrome with high morbidity and mortality. There are no proven pharmacological therapies for ARDS. The current definition of ARDS is based on shared clinical characteristics but does not capture the heterogeneity in clinical risk factors, imaging characteristics, physiology, timing of onset and trajectory, and biology of the syndrome. There is increasing interest within the ARDS clinical trialist community to design clinical trials that reduce heterogeneity in the trial population. This effort must be balanced with ongoing work to craft an inclusive, global definition of ARDS, with important implications for trial design. Ultimately, the two aims-to design trials that are applicable to the diverse global ARDS population while also advancing opportunities to identify targetable traits-should coexist. In this Personal View, we recommend two primary strategies to improve future ARDS trials: the development of new methods to target treatable traits in clinical trial populations, and improvements in the representativeness of ARDS trials, with the inclusion of global populations. We emphasise that these two strategies are complementary. We also discuss how a proposed expansion of the definition of ARDS could affect the future of clinical trials.

COVID-19-Related ARDS: Key Mechanistic Features and Treatments. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11164896.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a heterogeneous syndrome historically characterized by the presence of severe hypoxemia, high-permeability pulmonary edema manifesting as diffuse alveolar infiltrate on chest radiograph, and reduced compliance of the integrated respiratory system as a result of widespread compressive atelectasis and fluid-filled alveoli. Coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19)-associated ARDS (C-ARDS) is a novel etiology caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) that may present with distinct clinical features as a result of the viral pathobiology unique to SARS-CoV-2. In particular, severe injury to the pulmonary vascular endothelium, accompanied by the presence of diffuse microthrombi in the pulmonary microcirculation, can lead to a clinical presentation in which the severity of impaired gas exchange becomes uncoupled from lung capacity and respiratory mechanics. The purpose of this review is to highlight the key mechanistic features of C-ARDS and to discuss the implications these features have on its treatment. In some patients with C-ARDS, rigid adherence to guidelines derived from clinical trials in the pre-COVID era may not be appropriate.

Elevated plasma levels of Krebs von den Lungen-6 and geographic appearance on high-resolution computed tomography are associated with diffuse alveolar damage in autopsy cases of acute respiratory distress syndrome: a retrospective study. BMC Pulm Med 2022; 22:308. [PMID: 35953795 PMCID: PMC9367020 DOI: 10.1186/s12890-022-02102-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2022] [Accepted: 08/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Although diffuse alveolar damage (DAD) is a histopathological hallmark of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), its detection without lung biopsy is challenging. In patients with ARDS, the specificity of the Berlin definition to diagnose DAD as a reference standard is not adequately high, making it difficult to adequately diagnose DAD. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between DAD and clinical findings, including KL-6 and geographic appearance, in ARDS patients and to identify more specific diagnostic criteria for DAD. Methods Among all adult autopsy cases at a tertiary hospital in Japan between January 2006 and March 2021, patients with ARDS who met the Berlin definition criteria were included. The patients’ conditions were classified according to histopathological patterns as DAD or non-DAD, and clinical characteristics, laboratory data, and high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) findings were compared between the two groups. Results During the study period, 27 met the Berlin definition (median age: 79 years, 19 men), of whom 18 (67%) had DAD and 9 (33%) did not. In the non-DAD group, histopathologic findings revealed organizing pneumonia in seven patients and pulmonary hemorrhage in two patients. On HRCT at onset, patients with DAD had more geographic appearance than those without DAD (89% vs. 44%). In patients with geographic appearance and elevated KL-6 (> 500 U/mL), the sensitivity and specificity for DAD diagnosis were 56% and 100%, respectively. All three patients with no geographic appearance and normal KL-6 did not have DAD. Conclusions Geographic appearance on HRCT combined with KL-6 levels may predict the presence of DAD in patients with ARDS.

Adv Respir Med 2022; 90:267-278. [PMID: 36004956 PMCID: PMC9717336 DOI: 10.3390/arm90040036] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2022] [Revised: 07/08/2022] [Accepted: 07/13/2022] [Indexed: 09/15/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Limited epidemiological data are available on changes in management, benefits, complications, and outcomes after open lung biopsy in patients with ARDS. METHODS We performed a literature search of PubMed, Ovid, and Cochrane databases for articles from the inception of each database till November 2020 that provided outcomes of lung biopsy in ARDS patients. The primary outcome was the proportion of patients that had a change in management with alteration of treatment plan, after lung biopsy. Secondary outcomes included pathological diagnoses and complications related to the lung biopsy. Pooled proportions with a 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated for the prevalence of outcomes. RESULTS After analysis of 22 articles from 1994 to 2018, a total of 851 ARDS patients (mean age 59.28 ± 7.41, males 56.4%) that were admitted to the ICU who underwent surgical lung biopsy for ARDS were included. Biopsy changed the management in 539 patients (pooled proportion 75%: 95% CI 64-84%). There were 394 deaths (pooled proportion 49%: 95% CI 41-58%). The most common pathologic diagnosis was diffuse alveolar damage that occurred in 30% (95% CI 19-41%), followed by interstitial lung disease in 10% (95% CI 3-19%), and viral infection in 9% (95% CI 4-16%). Complications occurred among 201 patients (pooled proportion 24%, 95% CI 17-31%). The most common type of complication was persistent air-leak among 115 patients (pooled estimate 13%, 95% CI 9-17%). CONCLUSION Despite the high mortality risk associated with ARDS, lung biopsy changed management in about 3/4 of the patients. However, 1/4 of the patients had a complication due to lung biopsy. The risks from the procedure should be carefully weighed before proceeding with lung biopsy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lung diseases including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), infections like influenza, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), asthma and pneumonia lung cancer (LC) are common causes of sickness and death worldwide due to their remoteness, cold and harsh climatic conditions, and inaccessible health care facilities. PURPOSE Many drugs have already been proposed for the treatment of lung diseases. Few of them are in clinical trials and have the potential to cure infectious diseases. Plant extracts or herbal products have been extensively used as Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Indian Ayurveda. Moreover, it has been involved in the inhibition of certain genes/protiens effects to promote regulation of signaling pathways. Natural remedies have been scientifically proven with remarkable bioactivities and are considered a cheap and safe source for lung disease. METHODS This comprehensive review highlighted the literature about traditional plants and their metabolites with their applications for the treatment of lung diseases through experimental models in humans. Natural drugs information and mode of mechanism have been studied through the literature retrieved by Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, SciFinder, Scopus and Medline PubMed resources against lung diseases. RESULTS In vitro, in vivo and computational studies have been explained for natural metabolites derived from plants (like flavonoids, alkaloids, and terpenoids) against different types of lung diseases. Probiotics have also been biologically active therapeutics against cancer, anti-inflammation, antiplatelet, antiviral, and antioxidants associated with lung diseases. CONCLUSION The results of the mentioned natural metabolites repurposed for different lung diseases especially for SARS-CoV-2 should be evaluated more by advance computational applications, experimental models in the biological system, also need to be validated by clinical trials so that we may be able to retrieve potential drugs for most challenging lung diseases especially SARS-CoV-2.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a severe form of respiratory failure burden by high hospital mortality. No specific pharmacologic treatment is currently available and its ventilatory management is a key strategy to allow reparative and regenerative lung tissue processes. Unfortunately, a poor management of mechanical ventilation can induce ventilation induced lung injury (VILI) caused by physical and biological forces which are at play. Different parameters have been described over the years to assess lung injury severity and facilitate optimization of mechanical ventilation. Indices of lung injury severity include variables related to gas exchange abnormalities, ventilatory setting and respiratory mechanics, ventilation intensity, and the presence of lung hyperinflation versus derecruitment. Recently, specific indexes have been proposed to quantify the stress and the strain released over time using more comprehensive algorithms of calculation such as the mechanical power, and the interaction between driving pressure (DP) and respiratory rate (RR) in the novel DP multiplied by four plus RR [(4 × DP) + RR] index. These new parameters introduce the concept of ventilation intensity as contributing factor of VILI. Ventilation intensity should be taken into account to optimize protective mechanical ventilation strategies, with the aim to reduce intensity to the lowest level required to maintain gas exchange to reduce the potential for VILI. This is further gaining relevance in the current era of phenotyping and enrichment strategies in ARDS.

Abstract
Purpose The objective of the present study was to provide a detailed histopathological description of fatal coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID 19), and compare the lesions in Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and non-ICU patients. Methods In this prospective study we included adult patients who died in hospital after presenting with confirmed COVID-19. Multiorgan biopsies were performed. Data generated with light microscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and RT-PCR assays were reviewed. Results 20 patients were enrolled in the study and the main pulmonary finding was alveolar damage, which was focal in 11 patients and diffuse in 8 patients. Chronic fibrotic and inflammatory lesions were observed in 18 cases, with acute inflammatory lesions in 12 cases. Diffuse lesions, collapsed alveoli and dystrophic pneumocytes were more frequent in the ICU group (62.5%, vs. 25%; 63%, vs. 55%; 87.5%, vs. 54%). Acute lesions (82%, vs. 37.5%; p = 0.07) with neutrophilic alveolitis (63.6% vs. 0%, respectively; p = 0.01) were observed more frequently in the non-ICU group. Viral RNA was detected in 12 lung biopsies (60%) up to 56 days after disease upset. TEM detected viral particles in the lung and kidney biopsy samples up to 27 days after disease upset. Furthermore, abundant networks of double-membrane vesicles (DMVs, a hallmark of viral replication) were observed in proximal tubular epithelial cells. Conclusion Lung injury was different in ICU and non-ICU patients. Extrapulmonary damage consisting in kidney and myocardial injury were more frequent in ICU patients. Our TEM experiments provided the first description of SARS-CoV-2-induced DMVs in kidney biopsy samples—a sign of intense viral replication in this organ.
