Reliability and reference values for diaphragmatic excursion, thickness, and thickening fraction and quadriceps femoris muscle thickness in full-term newborns evaluated by ultrasound. Eur J Pediatr 2024; 183:3453-3460. [PMID: 38771374 DOI: 10.1007/s00431-024-05608-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2024] [Revised: 05/06/2024] [Accepted: 05/11/2024] [Indexed: 05/22/2024]
Abstract
To determine the diaphragm thickness, thickening fraction, and excursion and thickness of the quadriceps femoris muscle in full-term newborns and to evaluate the intra- and interrater reliability of these measurements. This was a prospective, observational clinical study including full-term newborns born within the first 48 h after birth. Serial measurements of the thickness, thickening fraction, and mobility of the diaphragm muscles and the thickness of the quadriceps muscle were obtained using ultrasound images. A total of 69 newborns with a mean gestational age of 39 weeks were included. The following measurements were obtained and are expressed as the mean (standard deviation): inspiratory diaphragm thickness, 0.19 cm (0.04); expiratory diaphragm thickness, 0.16 cm (0.04); diaphragm thickness fraction, 16.70 cm (10.27); diaphragmatic excursion, 0.68 cm (0.22); and quadriceps thickness, 0.99 cm (0.14). Intrarater reliability was assessed using intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs). Excellent intrarater agreement was observed for the two groups of operators (ICC > 0.86, p < 0.001) for all measurements except for the diaphragm thickening fraction, which showed good agreement for both operator groups (ICC = 0.70, p < 0.001). Regarding interrater reliability, moderate agreement between the raters was observed in the means of all measures (ICC > 0.49, p < 0.001), except for the diaphragm thickening fraction, which showed poor agreement. Conclusion: Good intrarater and moderate interrater reliability were achieved in ultrasound evaluations of the thickness and mobility of the diaphragm and quadriceps femoris muscles in full-term newborns, demonstrating the feasibility of this technique for clinical use. This pioneering study offers reference values for these muscles in a single study, allowing comparisons between different clinical conditions. What is Known: • Ultrasound is a highly reliable tool for muscle assessment that can be used to assess muscular atrophy in critically ill patients. • Muscle atrophy worsens the patient's condition and has been associated with worse outcomes. What is New: • To our knowledge, this is the first study to jointly evaluate the diaphragm and quadriceps muscle thickness and evaluate the reliability of all measurements. • Our study presents reference values for both muscles, enabling comparisons between different clinical conditions.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation injures not only the lungs but also the diaphragm, resulting in dysfunction associated with poor outcomes. Diaphragm ultrasonography is a noninvasive, cost-effective, and reproducible diagnostic method used to monitor the condition and function of the diaphragm. With advances in ultrasound technology and the expansion of its clinical applications, diaphragm ultrasonography has become increasingly important as a tool to visualize and quantify diaphragmatic morphology and function across multiple medical specialties, including pulmonology, critical care, and rehabilitation medicine. This comprehensive review aims to provide an in-depth analysis of the role and limitations of ultrasonography in assessing the diaphragm, especially among critically ill patients. Furthermore, we discuss a recently published expert consensus and provide a perspective for the future.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle dysfunction is a major problem in critically ill patients suffering from sepsis. This condition is associated with mitochondrial dysfunction and increased autophagy in skeletal muscles. Autophagy is a proteolytic mechanism involved in eliminating dysfunctional cellular components, including mitochondria. The latter process, referred to as mitophagy, is essential for maintaining mitochondrial quality and skeletal muscle health. Recently, a fluorescent reporter system called mito-QC (i.e. mitochondrial quality control) was developed to specifically quantify mitophagy levels. In the present study, we used mito-QC transgenic mice and confocal microscopy to morphologically monitor mitophagy levels during sepsis. To induce sepsis, Mito-QC mice received Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide (10 mg kg-1 i.p.) or phosphate-buffered saline and skeletal muscles (hindlimb and diaphragm) were excised 48 h later. In control groups, there was a negative correlation between the basal mitophagy level and overall muscle mitochondrial content. Sepsis increased general autophagy in both limb muscles and diaphragm but had no effect on mitophagy levels. Sepsis was associated with a downregulation of certain mitophagy receptors (Fundc1, Bcl2L13, Fkbp8 and Phbb2). The present study suggests that general autophagy and mitophagy can be dissociated from one another, and that the characteristic accumulation of damaged mitochondria in skeletal muscles under the condition of sepsis may reflect a failure of adequate compensatory mitophagy. KEY POINTS: There was a negative correlation between the basal level of skeletal muscle mitophagy and the mitochondrial content of individual muscles. Mitophagy levels in limb muscles and the diaphragm were unaffected by lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced sepsis. With the exception of BNIP3 in sepsis, LPS administration induced either no change or a downregulation of mitophagy receptors in skeletal muscles.

PLoS One 2024; 19:e0300605.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Inspiratory muscle training (IMT) is one possible strategy to ameliorate respiratory muscle weakness due to invasive mechanical ventilation. Recent systematic reviews have focused on respiratory outcomes with minimal attention to physical function. The newest systematic review searched the literature until September 2017 and a recent preliminary search identified 5 new randomized controlled trials focusing on IMT in critical care. As such, a new systematic review is warranted to summarize the current body of evidence and to investigate the effect of IMT on physical function in critical care. MATERIALS AND METHODS We will search for three main concepts ("critical illness", "inspiratory muscle training", "RCT") across six databases from their inception (MEDLINE, EMBASE, Emcare, AMED, CINAHL, CENTRAL) and ClinicalTrials.gov. Two reviewers will independently screen titles, abstracts, and full texts for eligibility using the Covidence web-based software. Eligible studies must include: (1) adult (≥18 years) patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) who required invasive mechanical ventilation for ≥24 hours, (2) an IMT intervention using a threshold device with the goal of improving inspiratory muscle strength, with or without usual care, and (3) randomized controlled trial design. The primary outcome of interest will be physical function. We will use the Cochrane Risk of Bias Tools (ROB2) and will assess the quality of the evidence using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluations (GRADE) tool. This protocol has been reported according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Protocols (PRISMA- P) guidelines and is registered with the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO). CONCLUSION Results will summarize the body of evidence of the effect of IMT on physical function in critically ill patients. We will submit our findings to a peer-reviewed journal and share our results at conferences.

Abstract
The respiratory muscle force determines the intensity of cough force. A greater cough force for cleaning the airways is essential for preventing and managing pneumonia. Body posture can affect the onset of aspiration pneumonia. However, the effects of body posture on the respiratory muscle and cough forces remain unclear. Thus, we aimed to explore the influence of the four body postures on respiratory muscle force, cough pressure, subjective ease of coughing, and pulmonary function in healthy individuals. Twenty healthy individuals were included in this study. Body postures were 0-degree supine, 30- and 60-degree semi-recumbent, and 90-degree sitting. The maximal inspiratory and expiratory pressures, maximal cough pressure, subjective ease of coughing, and pulmonary function, including peak expiratory flow, were evaluated. We set the measured values in the supine posture to 100% and showed the relative values. The 60-degree posture showed stronger inspiratory (125.1 ± 3.9%, mean ± standard error [SE]) and expiratory (116.4 ± 3.0%) muscle force, cough pressure, more subjective ease of coughing, and greater peak expiratory flow (113.4 ± 3.0%) than the supine posture. The sitting posture also showed greater inspiratory muscle force and peak expiratory flow than the supine posture. The correlation coefficient for the 60-degree posture showed that the maximal inspiratory pressure was moderately correlated with the maximal expiratory pressure (r = 0.512), cough pressure (r = 0.495), and peak expiratory flow (r = 0.558). The above findings suggest the advantage of keeping a 60-degree posture and avoiding the supine posture to generate a greater cough force in the prevention and management of pneumonia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Few specific methods are available to reduce the risk of diaphragmatic dysfunction for patients under mechanical ventilation. The number of studies involving transcutaneous electrical stimulation of the diaphragm (TEDS) is increasing but none report results for diaphragmatic measurements, and they lack power. We hypothesised that the use of TEDS would decrease diaphragmatic dysfunction and improve respiratory muscle strength in patients in ICU. METHODS We conducted a controlled trial to assess the impact of daily active electrical stimulation versus sham stimulation on the prevention of diaphragm dysfunction during the weaning process from mechanical ventilation. The evaluation was based on ultrasound measurements of diaphragm thickening fraction during spontaneous breathing trials. We also measured maximal inspiratory muscle pressure (MIP), peak cough flow (PEF) and extubation failure. RESULTS Sixty-six patients were included and randomised using a 1:1 ratio. The mean number of days of mechanical ventilation was 10 ± 6.8. Diaphragm thickening fraction was > 30% at the SBT for 67% of participants in the TEDS group and 54% of the Sham group (OR1.55, 95% CI 0.47-5.1; p = 0.47). MIP and PEF were similar in the TEDS and Sham groups (respectively 35.5 ± 11.9 vs 29.7 ± 11.7 cmH20; p = 0.469 and 83.2 ± 39.5 vs. 75.3 ± 34.08 L/min; p = 0.83). Rate of extubation failure was not different between groups. CONCLUSION TEDS did not prevent diaphragm dysfunction or improve inspiratory muscle strength in mechanically ventilated patients.

Abstract
Considering the prioritization of life-threatening injuries in trauma care, secondary dysfunctions such as ventilator-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction (VIDD) are often overlooked. VIDD is an entity induced by muscle inactivity during invasive mechanical ventilation, associated with a profound loss of diaphragm muscle mass. In order to assess the incidence of VIDD in polytrauma patients, we performed an observational, retrospective, longitudinal study that included 24 polytraumatized patients. All included patients were mechanically ventilated for at least 48 h and underwent two chest CT scans during their ICU stay. Diaphragmatic thickness was measured by two independent radiologists on coronal and axial images at the level of celiac plexus. The thickness of the diaphragm was significantly decreased on both the left and right sides (left side: -0.82 mm axial p = 0.034; -0.79 mm coronal p = 0.05; right side: -0.94 mm axial p = 0.016; -0.91 coronal p = 0.013). In addition, we obtained a positive correlation between the number of days of mechanical ventilation and the difference between the two measurements of the diaphragm thickness on both sides (r =0.5; p = 0.02). There was no statistically significant correlation between the body mass indexes on admission, the use of vitamin C or N-acetyl cysteine, and the differences in diaphragmatic thickness.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION A frequent cause of weaning and extubation failure in critically ill mechanically ventilated patients is diaphragm muscle dysfunction. Ultrasound (US) evaluation of the diaphragm yields important data regarding its thickness (diaphragm thickening fraction [TFdi]) and its movement or excursion (diaphragmatic dynamics) that reveal the presence of diaphragmatic dysfunction. METHODS Cross-sectional study, which included patients older than 18 years with invasive mechanical ventilation with an expected duration of more than 48 h, in a tertiary referral center in Colombia. The excursion of the diaphragm, inspiratory and expiratory thickness, and TFdi were evaluated by US. Prevalence and use of medications were evaluated, and the association with failure in ventilatory weaning and extubation was analyzed. RESULTS Sixty-one patients were included. The median age and APACHE IV score were 62.42 years and 78.23, respectively. The prevalence of diaphragmatic dysfunction (assessed by excursion and TFdi) was 40.98%. The sensibility, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value for TFdi < 20% was 86%, 24%, 75%, and 40%, respectively, with an area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of 0.6. The ultrasonographic analysis of excursion of the diaphragm, inspiratory and expiratory thickness, and TFdi (>20%) allow in its set and with normal values, predict success or failure for the extubation with an area under the ROC curve of 0.87. CONCLUSION Diaphragmatic dynamics and thickness parameters together assessed by ultrasonography could predict the success of extubation in critically ill patients in Colombia, based on the finding of diaphragmatic dysfunction.

[PMID: 36142910 PMCID: PMC9505108 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11185264] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2022] [Revised: 08/30/2022] [Accepted: 09/02/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Generally, weak muscle power is associated with high mortality. We aimed to evaluate the unknown association between % predicted value forced vital capacity (FVC% predicted) and mortality in asymptomatic older people, and the impact of muscle power on this association. We analyzed the Tsurugaya cohort that enrolled Japanese people aged ≥70 for 15 years with Cox proportional hazards model. Exposure variables were FVC% predicted and leg power. The outcome was all-cause mortality. The subjects were divided into quartiles by FVC% predicted or leg power, or into two groups by 80% for FVC% predicted or by the strongest 25% for leg power. Across 985 subjects, 262 died. The males with lower FVC% predicted exhibited higher mortality risks. The hazard ratio (HR) was 2.03 (95% CI 1.30−3.18) at the lowest relative to the highest groups. The addition of leg power reduced the HR to 1.78 (95% CI 1.12−2.80). In females, FVC% predicted under 80% was a risk factor and the HR was 1.67 (95% CI 1.05−2.64) without the effect of leg power. In FVC% predicted <80% males HRs were 2.44 (95% CI 1.48−4.02) in weak and 1.38 (95% CI 0.52−3.64) in strong leg power males, relative to ≥80% and strong leg power males. Low FVC% predicted was associated with high mortality with potential unfavorable effects of weak leg power in males.

Abstract
Background Whether sepsis-associated diaphragm dysfunction may improve despite the exposure of mechanical ventilation in critically ill patients is unclear. This study aims at describing the diaphragm function time course of septic and non-septic mechanically ventilated patients. Methods Secondary analysis of two prospective observational studies of mechanically ventilated patients in whom diaphragm function was assessed twice: within the 24 h after intubation and when patients were switched to pressure support mode, by measuring the endotracheal pressure in response to bilateral anterior magnetic phrenic nerve stimulation (Ptr,stim). Change in diaphragm function was expressed as the difference between Ptr,stim measured under pressure support mode and Ptr,stim measured within the 24 h after intubation. Sepsis was defined according to the Sepsis-3 international guidelines upon inclusion. In a sub-group of patients, the right hemidiaphragm thickness was measured by ultrasound. Results Ninety-two patients were enrolled in the study. Sepsis upon intubation was present in 51 (55%) patients. In septic patients, primary reason for ventilation was acute respiratory failure related to pneumonia (37/51; 73%). In non-septic patients, main reasons for ventilation were acute respiratory failure not related to pneumonia (16/41; 39%), coma (13/41; 32%) and cardiac arrest (6/41; 15%). Ptr,stim within 24 h after intubation was lower in septic patients as compared to non-septic patients: 6.3 (4.9–8.7) cmH2O vs. 9.8 (7.0–14.2) cmH2O (p = 0.004), respectively. The median (interquartile) duration of mechanical ventilation between first and second diaphragm evaluation was 4 (2–6) days in septic patients and 3 (2–4) days in non-septic patients (p = 0.073). Between first and second measurements, the change in Ptr,stim was + 19% (− 13–61) in septic patients and − 7% (− 40–12) in non-septic patients (p = 0.005). In the sub-group of patients with ultrasound measurements, end-expiratory diaphragm thickness decreased in both, septic and non-septic patients. The 28-day mortality was higher in patients with decrease or no change in diaphragm function. Conclusion Septic patients were associated with a more severe but reversible impaired diaphragm function as compared to non-septic patients. Increase in diaphragm function was associated with a better survival. Supplementary Information The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1186/s13613-022-01005-9.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation (MV) is essential for patients with sepsis-related respiratory failure but can cause ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction (VIDD), which involves diaphragmatic myofiber atrophy and contractile inactivity. Mitochondrial DNA, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dynamics, and biogenesis are associated with VIDD. Hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) is crucial in the modulation of diaphragm immune responses. The mechanism through which HIF-1α and mitochondria affect sepsis-related diaphragm injury is unknown. We hypothesized that MV with or without endotoxin administration would aggravate diaphragmatic and mitochondrial injuries through HIF-1α. C57BL/6 mice, either wild-type or HIF-1α-deficient, were exposed to MV with or without endotoxemia for 8 h. MV with endotoxemia augmented VIDD and mitochondrial damage, which presented as increased oxidative loads, dynamin-related protein 1 level, mitochondrial DNA level, and the expressions of HIF-1α and light chain 3-II. Furthermore, disarrayed myofibrils; disorganized mitochondria; increased autophagosome numbers; and substantially decreased diaphragm contractility, electron transport chain activities, mitofusin 2, mitochondrial transcription factor A, peroxisome proliferator activated receptor-g coactivator-1α, and prolyl hydroxylase domain 2 were observed (p < 0.05). Endotoxin-stimulated VIDD and mitochondrial injuries were alleviated in HIF-1α-deficient mice (p < 0.05). Our data revealed that endotoxin aggravated MV-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction and mitochondrial damages, partially through the HIF-1α signaling pathway.

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
RATIONALE Prolonged mechanical ventilation (MV) is often associated either with a decrease (known atrophy) or an increase (supposed injury) in diaphragmatic thickness. Shear wave elastography is a non-invasive technique that measures shear modulus, a surrogate of tissue stiffness and mechanical properties. OBJECTIVES To describe changes in shear modulus (SM) during the ICU stay and the relationship with alterations in muscle thickness. To perform a comprehensive ultrasound-based characterization of histological and force production changes occurring in the diaphragm. METHODS Translational study using critically ill patients and mechanically ventilated piglets. Serial ultrasound examination of the diaphragm collecting thickness and SM was performed in both patients and piglets. Transdiaphragmatic pressure and diaphragmatic biopsies were collected in piglets. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS We enrolled 102 patients, 88 of whom were invasively mechanically ventilated. At baseline, SM was 14.3+/-4.3 kPa and diaphragm end-expiratory thickness was 2.0+/-0.5 mm. Decrease or increase by more than 10% from baseline was reported in 86% of the patients for thickness and in 92% of the patients for shear modulus. An increase in diaphragmatic thickness during the stay was associated with a decrease in SM (β=-9.34±4.41; p=0.03) after multivariable analysis. In the piglet sample, a decrease in SM over 3 days of MV was associated with loss of force production, slow and fast fiber atrophy and increased lipid droplets accumulation. CONCLUSIONS Increases in diaphragm thickness during critical illness is associated with decreased tissue stiffness as demonstrated by shear wave ultrasound elastography, consistent with the development of muscle injury and weakness.

Abstract
Background Growing evidence associates organ dysfunction(s) with impaired metabolism in sepsis. Recent research has increased our understanding of the role of substrate utilization and mitochondrial dysfunction in the pathophysiology of sepsis-related organ dysfunction. The purpose of this review is to present this evidence as a coherent whole and to highlight future research directions. Main text Sepsis is characterized by systemic and organ-specific changes in metabolism. Alterations of oxygen consumption, increased levels of circulating substrates, impaired glucose and lipid oxidation, and mitochondrial dysfunction are all associated with organ dysfunction and poor outcomes in both animal models and patients. The pathophysiological relevance of bioenergetics and metabolism in the specific examples of sepsis-related immunodeficiency, cerebral dysfunction, cardiomyopathy, acute kidney injury and diaphragmatic failure is also described. Conclusions Recent understandings in substrate utilization and mitochondrial dysfunction may pave the way for new diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. These findings could help physicians to identify distinct subgroups of sepsis and to develop personalized treatment strategies. Implications for their use as bioenergetic targets to identify metabolism- and mitochondria-targeted treatments need to be evaluated in future studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is no universally accepted method to assess the pressure-generating capacity of inspiratory muscles in children on mechanical ventilation (MV), and no study describing its evolution over time in this population. METHODS In this prospective observational study, we have assessed the function of the inspiratory muscles in children on various modes of MV. During brief airway occlusion maneuvers, we simultaneously recorded airway pressure depression at the endotracheal tube (ΔPaw, force generation) and electrical activity of the diaphragm (EAdi, central respiratory drive) over five consecutive inspiratory efforts. The neuro-mechanical efficiency ratio (NME, ΔPaw/EAdimax) was also computed. The evolution over time of these indices in a group of children in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) was primarily described. As a secondary objective, we compared these values to those measured in a group of children in the operating room (OR). RESULTS In the PICU group, although median NMEoccl decreased over time during MV (regression coefficient - 0.016, p = 0.03), maximum ΔPawmax remained unchanged (regression coefficient 0.109, p = 0.50). Median NMEoccl at the first measurement in the PICU group (after 21 h of MV) was significantly lower than at the only measurement in the OR group (1.8 cmH2O/µV, Q1-Q3 1.3-2.4 vs. 3.7 cmH2O/µV, Q1-Q3 3.5-4.2; p = 0.015). Maximum ΔPawmax in the PICU group was, however, not significantly different from the OR group (35.1 cmH2O, Q1-Q3 21-58 vs. 31.3 cmH2O, Q1-Q3 28.5-35.5; p = 0.982). CONCLUSIONS The function of inspiratory muscles can be monitored at the bedside of children on MV using brief airway occlusions. Inspiratory muscle efficiency was significantly lower in critically ill children than in children undergoing elective surgery, and it decreased over time during MV in critically ill children. This suggests that both critical illness and MV may have an impact on inspiratory muscle efficiency.

Abstract
Obesity is a significant public health concern associated with high morbidity. Obese patients are at risk of severe COVID-19 infection, and obesity is a high-risk factor for admission to the intensive care unit. We aimed to write a narrative review of cardiac and pulmonary pathophysiological aspects of obese patients in the context of COVID-19 infection. Obesity affects lung volume, with a decrease in expiratory reserve volume, which is associated with a decrease in lung and chest wall compliance, an increase in airway resistance, and an increase in work of breathing. Obesity affects cardiac structure and hemodynamics. Obesity is a risk factor for hypertension and cardiovascular disorders. Moreover, obesity is associated with a low-grade inflammatory state, endothelial dysfunction, hyperinsulinemia, and metabolic disorders. Obesity is associated with severe COVID-19 and invasive mechanical ventilation. These previous cardiopulmonary pathological aspects may explain the clinical severity in obese patients with COVID-19. Obese patients are at risk of severe COVID-19 infection. Understanding cardiorespiratory pathophysiological aspects may help physicians manage patients in hospitals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prolonged mechanical ventilation (MV) induces diaphragm dysfunction in patients in the intensive care units (ICUs). Our study aimed to explore the therapeutic efficacy of early rehabilitation therapy in patients with prolonged MV in the ICU. METHODS Eighty eligible patients who underwent MV for > 72 h in the ICU from June 2019 to March 2020 were enrolled in this prospective randomised controlled trial. The patients were randomly divided into a rehabilitation group (n = 39) and a control group (n = 41). Rehabilitation therapy included six levels of rehabilitation exercises. Diaphragm function was determined using ultrasound (US). RESULTS Diaphragmatic excursion (DE) and diaphragm thickening fraction (DTF) were significantly decreased in all patients in both groups after prolonged MV (p < 0.001). The rehabilitation group had significantly higher DTF (p = 0.008) and a smaller decrease in DTF (p = 0.026) than the control group after 3 days of rehabilitation training. The ventilator duration and intubation duration were significantly shorter in the rehabilitation group than in the control group (p = 0.045 and p = 0.037, respectively). There were no significant differences in the duration of ICU stay, proportion of patients undergoing tracheotomy, and proportion of recovered patients between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS Early rehabilitation is feasible and beneficial to ameliorate diaphragm dysfunction induced by prolonged MV and advance withdrawal from the ventilator and extubation in patients with MV. Diaphragm US is suggested for mechanically ventilated patients in the ICU. Trial registration Chinese Clinical Trial Registry, ID: ChiCTR1900024046, registered on 2019/06/23.

Abstract
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection has affected millions of people worldwide, and pneumonia affects 90% of patients. This raises the possibility of millions of people with altered lung function. Few data exist to date on pulmonary function after SARS-CoV-2 infection, but alteration of diffusion capacity of CO (D LCO) is the most frequently described abnormality. First, we present original data on lung function at 3 months after SARS-CoV-2 infection and discuss the effect of using European Coal and Steel Community (ECSC) or Global Lung Function Initiative (GLI) reference equations to diagnose diffusion capacity. Second, we review existing data on D LCO alteration after SARS-CoV-2 infection and discuss the implication of restrictive disorder in D LCO alteration. Last, we discuss the pathophysiology of D LCO alteration and try to disentangle vascular damage and fibrosis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The respiratory muscle strength regulates the effectiveness of coughing, which clears the airways and protects people from pneumonia. Sarcopenia is an aging-related loss of muscle mass and function, the worsening of which is associated with malnutrition. The loss of respiratory and swallowing muscle strength occurs with aging, but its effect on pneumonia is unclear. This study aimed to determine the risks of respiratory muscle weakness on the onset and relapse of pneumonia in older people in conjunction with other muscle-related factors such as malnutrition. METHODS We conducted a longitudinal study with 47 pneumonia inpatients and 35 non-pneumonia controls aged 70 years and older. We evaluated the strength of respiratory and swallowing muscles, muscle mass, and malnutrition (assessed by serum albumin levels and somatic fat) during admission and confirmed pneumonia relapse within 6 months. The maximal inspiratory and expiratory pressures determined the respiratory muscle strength. Swallowing muscle strength was evaluated by tongue pressure. Bioelectrical impedance analysis was used to evaluate the muscle and fat mass. RESULTS The respiratory muscle strength, body trunk muscle mass, serum albumin level, somatic fat mass, and tongue pressure were significantly lower in pneumonia patients than in controls. Risk factors for the onset of pneumonia were low inspiratory respiratory muscle strength (odds ratio [OR], 6.85; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.56-30.11), low body trunk muscle mass divided by height2 (OR, 6.86; 95% CI, 1.49-31.65), and low serum albumin level (OR, 5.46; 95% CI, 1.51-19.79). For the relapse of pneumonia, low somatic fat mass divided by height2 was a risk factor (OR, 20.10; 95% CI, 2.10-192.42). DISCUSSION/CONCLUSIONS Respiratory muscle weakness, lower body trunk muscle mass, and malnutrition were risk factors for the onset of pneumonia in older people. For the relapse of pneumonia, malnutrition was a risk factor.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation (MV) is required to maintain life for patients with sepsis-related acute lung injury but can cause diaphragmatic myotrauma with muscle damage and weakness, known as ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction (VIDD). Hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) plays a crucial role in inducing inflammation and apoptosis. Low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) was proven to have anti-inflammatory properties. However, HIF-1α and LMWH affect sepsis-related diaphragm injury has not been investigated. We hypothesized that LMWH would reduce endotoxin-augmented VIDD through HIF-1α. C57BL/6 mice, either wild-type or HIF-1α–deficient, were exposed to MV with or without endotoxemia for 8 h. Enoxaparin (4 mg/kg) was administered subcutaneously 30 min before MV. MV with endotoxemia aggravated VIDD, as demonstrated by increased interleukin-6 and macrophage inflammatory protein-2 levels, oxidative loads, and the expression of HIF-1α, calpain, caspase-3, atrogin-1, muscle ring finger-1, and microtubule-associated protein light chain 3-II. Disorganized myofibrils, disrupted mitochondria, increased numbers of autophagic and apoptotic mediators, substantial apoptosis of diaphragm muscle fibers, and decreased diaphragm function were also observed (p < 0.05). Endotoxin-exacerbated VIDD and myonuclear apoptosis were attenuated by pharmacologic inhibition by LMWH and in HIF-1α–deficient mice (p < 0.05). Our data indicate that enoxaparin reduces endotoxin-augmented MV-induced diaphragmatic injury, partially through HIF-1α pathway inhibition.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation can cause acute diaphragm atrophy and injury, and this is associated with poor clinical outcomes. Although the importance and impact of lung-protective ventilation is widely appreciated and well established, the concept of diaphragm-protective ventilation has recently emerged as a potential complementary therapeutic strategy. This Perspective, developed from discussions at a meeting of international experts convened by PLUG (the Pleural Pressure Working Group) of the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine, outlines a conceptual framework for an integrated lung- and diaphragm-protective approach to mechanical ventilation on the basis of growing evidence about mechanisms of injury. We propose targets for diaphragm protection based on respiratory effort and patient-ventilator synchrony. The potential for conflict between diaphragm protection and lung protection under certain conditions is discussed; we emphasize that when conflicts arise, lung protection must be prioritized over diaphragm protection. Monitoring respiratory effort is essential to concomitantly protect both the diaphragm and the lung during mechanical ventilation. To implement lung- and diaphragm-protective ventilation, new approaches to monitoring, to setting the ventilator, and to titrating sedation will be required. Adjunctive interventions, including extracorporeal life support techniques, phrenic nerve stimulation, and clinical decision-support systems, may also play an important role in selected patients in the future. Evaluating the clinical impact of this new paradigm will be challenging, owing to the complexity of the intervention. The concept of lung- and diaphragm-protective ventilation presents a new opportunity to potentially improve clinical outcomes for critically ill patients.

Respir Med Case Rep 2020; 31:101284. [PMID: 33200066 PMCID: PMC7654235 DOI: 10.1016/j.rmcr.2020.101284] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2020] [Revised: 10/09/2020] [Accepted: 11/02/2020] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
The clinical research described in this case report was initiated because of the recognized need for early identification of Covid-19 patients at risk of respiratory failure. We used point of care ultrasound to identify diaphragm dysfunction in a spontaneously breathing Covid-19 patient. Measurements of diaphragm thickness and thickening fraction indicated diaphragm dysfunction prior to intubation while respiratory failure was not yet evident from arterial blood gas analysis. Recovery of diaphragm contractility was demonstrated within two days of controlled mechanical ventilation when the patient was switched to a pressure support mode. With recovery of the diaphragm very large fractional shortening was seen after discontinuation of rocuronium, which was associated with a reduced dynamic compliance. In conclusion, this case report illustrates the need to be aware of potential diaphragm dysfunction in spontaneously breathing Covid-19 patients. With recovery, point of care ultrasound allows repeated evaluation of diaphragm function which appears to be responsive to changes in pulmonary compliance.

Abstract
Background Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase (NOX) enzymes play important roles in generating reactive oxygen species (ROS); in particular, NOX4 plays a distinct role in regulating lung inflammation and apoptosis. Methods We determined whether plasma NOX4 level can be used as a prognostic biomarker to guide weaning from mechanical ventilation and to predict mortality in intubated patients. Plasma levels of NOX4 were measured at days 1 (NOX4 D1) and 7 (NOX4 D7) after initiation of mechanical ventilation in 184 patients. Results With increase in day 7 NOX4 quartile, the success of weaning tended to decrease and 28-day mortality tended to increase. On multivariate logistic regression, Acute Physiology, Age, Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) [odds ratio (OR): 1.10; 95% CI, 1.02–1.18], duration of mechanical ventilation (OR: 1.12; 95% CI: 1.06–1.18), and NOX4 D7 levels >18.2 ng/mL (OR: 4.40; 95% CI: 1.91–10.06) were independently associated with weaning failure. Also, Cox-hazard proportional model showed that NOX4 D7 level >18.2 ng/mL (hazard ratio [HR], 2.29; 95% CI, 1.26–4.16), APACHE II (HR: 1.07; 95% CI: 1.02–1.14), Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) (HR: 1.10; 95% CI: 1.01–1.20) and coexisting cancer (HR: 1.99; 95% CI, 1.01–3.94), were independently associated with 28-day mortality. The longitudinal trend of NOX4 level varied according to the clinical outcomes. Conclusions An increased plasma NOX4 D7 level was associated with weaning failure and 28-day mortality in patients with mechanical ventilation. Our results suggest that NOX4-directed management may lead to improved outcomes in patients with mechanical ventilation.

Abstract
Patients with intensive care unit-acquired weakness have an increased risk of prolonged mechanical ventilation, which is a risk factor for prolonged stay and mortality. The most common cause of this problem is weakness of the diaphragm, which can derive from phrenic nerve injury associated with critical neuropathy, or with the complex multiorgan failure/systemic respiratory response syndrome causing muscle fiber lesion. Two conventional neurophysiological techniques are useful to investigate the respiratory muscles, phrenic nerve conduction, and needle electromyography of the accessory respiratory muscles and diaphragm. Phrenic nerve stimulation is a standard noninvasive technique; amplitude of the motor response can be reduced because of muscle fiber inexcitability or axonal loss. Electromyography of the diaphragm is an invasive method but is safe if performed as indicated. It can reveal neurogenic or myopathic motor units. Although these neurophysiological methods have limitations in the investigation of intensive care unit patients with severe respiratory involvement, normal phrenic nerve responses should exclude marked axonal loss and indicate a better prognosis.

Neuregulin-1 β Protects the Rat Diaphragm during Sepsis against Oxidative Stress and Inflammation by Activating the PI3K/Akt Pathway. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2020; 2020:1720961. [PMID: 32765805 PMCID: PMC7387979 DOI: 10.1155/2020/1720961] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2020] [Revised: 06/15/2020] [Accepted: 07/01/2020] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
Sepsis-induced diaphragm dysfunction (SIDD) which is mainly characterized by decrease in diaphragmatic contractility has been identified to cause great harms to patients. Therefore, there is an important and pressing need to find effective treatments for improving SIDD. In addition, acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity is a vital property of the diaphragm, so we evaluated both diaphragmatic contractility and AChE activity. Though neuregulin-1β (NRG-1β) is known to exert organ-protective effects in some inflammatory diseases, little is known about the potential of NRG-1β therapy in the diaphragm during sepsis. Our study was aimed at exploring the effects of NRG-1β application on diaphragmatic contractility and AChE activity during sepsis. Proinflammatory cytokines, muscle injury biomarkers in serum, contractile force, AChE activity, proinflammatory cytokines, oxidative parameters, histological condition, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) staining, and expression of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (PKB/Akt) signaling proteins in the diaphragm were measured and compared between nonseptic and septic groups with or without NRG-1β treatment. In vitro, the effects of NRG-1β on reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in the lipopolysaccharide- (LPS-) stimulated L6 rat muscle skeletal cells with or without the Akt inhibitor MK-2206 were detected. NRG-1β inhibited proinflammatory cytokine release and muscle injury biomarkers soaring in serum and improved the sepsis-induced diaphragm dysfunction and AChE activity decrease significantly during sepsis. Meanwhile, the inflammatory response, oxidative stress, pathological impairment, and cell apoptosis in the diaphragm were mitigated by NRG-1β. And NRG-1β activated the PI3K/Akt signaling in the diaphragm of septic rats. Elevated ROS production in the LPS-stimulated L6 rat skeletal muscle cells was reduced after treatment with NRG-1β, while MK-2206 blocked these effects of NRG-1β. In conclusion, our findings underlined that NRG-1β could reduce circulating levels of proinflammatory cytokines in rats with sepsis, adjust diaphragmatic proinflammatory cytokine level, mitigate diaphragmatic oxidative injury, and lessen diaphragm cell apoptosis, thereby improving diaphragmatic function, and play a role in diaphragmatic protection by activating PI3K/Akt signaling.

Is Mitochondrial Oxidative Stress the Key Contributor to Diaphragm Atrophy and Dysfunction in Critically Ill Patients? Crit Care Res Pract 2020; 2020:8672939.

Abstract
Diaphragm dysfunction is prevalent in the progress of respiratory dysfunction in various critical illnesses. Respiratory muscle weakness may result in insufficient ventilation, coughing reflection suppression, pulmonary infection, and difficulty in weaning off respirators. All of these further induce respiratory dysfunction and even threaten the patients' survival. The potential mechanisms of diaphragm atrophy and dysfunction include impairment of myofiber protein anabolism, enhancement of myofiber protein degradation, release of inflammatory mediators, imbalance of metabolic hormones, myonuclear apoptosis, autophagy, and oxidative stress. Among these contributors, mitochondrial oxidative stress is strongly implicated to play a key role in the process as it modulates diaphragm protein synthesis and degradation, induces protein oxidation and functional alteration, enhances apoptosis and autophagy, reduces mitochondrial energy supply, and is regulated by inflammatory cytokines via related signaling molecules. This review aims to provide a concise overview of pathological mechanisms of diaphragmatic dysfunction in critically ill patients, with special emphasis on the role and modulating mechanisms of mitochondrial oxidative stress.

Abstract
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a severe X-linked neuromuscular disorder that affects males. However, 8% of female carriers are symptomatic and underrepresented in research due to the lack of animal models. We generated a symptomatic mouse model of DMD carriers via injection of mdx (murine DMD) embryonic stem cells (ESCs) into wild-type (WT) blastocysts (mdx/WT chimera). mdx/WT chimeras developed cardiomyopathic features and dystrophic skeletal muscle phenotypes including elevated mononuclear invasion, central nucleation, fibrosis and declined forelimb grip strength. The disease was accompanied by connexin-43 (Cx43) aberrantly enhanced in both cardiac and skeletal muscles and remodeled in the heart. Genetic reduction of Cx43-copy number in mdx/WT-Cx43(+/-) chimeras protected them from both cardiac and skeletal muscle fiber damage. In dystrophic skeletal muscle, Cx43 expression was not seen in the fibers but in adjacent F4/80+ mononuclear cells. Ethidium Bromide uptake in purified F4/80+/CD11b+ mdx macrophages revealed functional activity of Cx43, which was inhibited by administration of Gap19 peptide mimetic, a Cx43 hemichannel-specific inhibitor. Thus, we suggest that Cx43 reduction in symptomatic DMD carrier mice leads to prevention of Cx43 remodeling in the heart and prevention of aberrant Cx43 hemichannel activity in the skeletal muscle macrophages neighboring Cx43 non-expressing fibers.

J Appl Physiol (1985) 2020; 128:463-472. [PMID: 31944887 PMCID: PMC7099438 DOI: 10.1152/japplphysiol.00240.2019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2019] [Revised: 01/14/2020] [Accepted: 01/14/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Sepsis-induced diaphragm dysfunction contributes to respiratory failure and mortality in critical illness. There are no treatments for this form of diaphragm weakness. Studies show that sepsis-induced muscle dysfunction is triggered by enhanced mitochondrial free radical generation. We tested the hypothesis that SS31, a mitochondrially targeted antioxidant, would attenuate sepsis-induced diaphragm dysfunction. Four groups of mice were studied: 1) sham-operated controls, 2) sham-operated+SS31 (10 mg·kg-1·day-1), 3) cecal ligation puncture (CLP), and 4) CLP+SS31. Forty-eight hours postoperatively, diaphragm strips with attached phrenic nerves were isolated, and the following were assessed: muscle-field-stimulated force-frequency curves, nerve-stimulated force-frequency curves, and muscle fatigue. We also measured calpain activity, 20S proteasomal activity, myosin heavy chain (MHC) levels, mitochondrial function, and aconitase activity, an index of mitochondrial superoxide generation. Sepsis markedly reduced diaphragm force generation; SS31 prevented these decrements. Diaphragm-specific force generation averaged 30.2 ± 1.4, 9.4 ± 1.8, 25.5 ± 2.3, and 27.9 ± 0.6 N/cm2 for sham, CLP, sham+SS31, and CLP+SS31 groups (P < 0.001). Similarly, with phrenic nerve stimulation, CLP depressed diaphragm force generation, effects prevented by SS31. During endurance trials, force was significantly reduced with CLP, and SS31 prevented these reductions (P < 0.001). Sepsis also increased diaphragm calpain activity, increased 20S proteasomal activity, decreased MHC levels, reduced mitochondrial function (state 3 rates and ATP generation), and reduced aconitase activity; SS31 prevented each of these sepsis-induced alterations (P ≤ 0.017 for all indices). SS31 prevents sepsis-induced diaphragm dysfunction, preserving force generation, endurance, and mitochondrial function. Compounds with similar mechanisms of action may be useful therapeutically to preserve diaphragm function in patients who are septic and critically ill.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Sepsis-induced diaphragm dysfunction is a major contributor to mortality and morbidity in patients with critical illness in intensive care units. Currently, there is no proven pharmacological treatment for this problem. This study provides the novel finding that administration of SS31, a mitochondrially targeted antioxidant, preserves diaphragm myosin heavy chain content and mitochondrial function, thereby preventing diaphragm weakness and fatigue in sepsis.

Utility of Plasma GDF-15 for Diagnosis and Prognosis Assessment of ICU-Acquired Weakness in Mechanically Ventilated Patients: Prospective Observational Study. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2020; 2020:3630568. [PMID: 32104689 PMCID: PMC7036092 DOI: 10.1155/2020/3630568] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/07/2019] [Revised: 08/24/2019] [Accepted: 09/03/2019] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
Objective To identify the clinical correlations between plasma growth differentiation factor-15 (GDF-15), skeletal muscle function, and acute muscle wasting in ICU patients with mechanical ventilation. In addition, to investigate its diagnostic value for ICU-acquired weakness (ICU-AW) and its predictive value for 90-day survival in mechanically ventilated patients. Methods 95 patients with acute respiratory failure, who required mechanical ventilation therapy, were randomly selected among hospitalized patients from June 2017 to January 2019. The plasma GDF-15 level was detected by ELISA, the rectus femoris cross-sectional area (RFcsa) was measured by ultrasound, and the patient's muscle strength was assessed using the British Medical Research Council (MRC) muscle strength score on day 1, day 4, and day 7. Patients were divided into an ICU-AW group and a non-ICU-AW group according to their MRC-score on the 7th day. The differences in plasma GDF-15 level, MRC-score, and RFcsa between the two groups were compared on the 1st, 4th, and 7th day after being admitted to the ICU. Then, the correlations between plasma GDF-15 level, RFcsa loss, and MRC-score on day 7 were investigated. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to analyze the plasma GDF-15 level, RFcsa loss, and % decrease in RFcsa on the 7th day to the diagnosis of ICU-AW in mechanically ventilated patients. Moreover, the predictive value of GDF-15 on the 90-day survival status of patients was assessed using patient survival curves. Results Based on whether the 7th day MRC-score was <48, 50 cases were included in the ICU-AW group and 45 cases in the non-ICU-AW group. The length of mechanical ventilation, ICU length of stay, and hospital length of stay were significantly longer in the ICU-AW group than in the non-ICU-AW group (all P < 0.05), while the other baseline indicators were not statistically significant between the two groups. As the treatment time increased, the plasma GDF-15 level was significantly increased, the ICU-AW group demonstrated a significant decreasing trend in the MRC-score and RFcsa, while no significant changes were found in the non-ICU-AW group. In the ICU-AW group, the plasma GDF-15 level was significantly higher than that in the non-ICU-AW group, while the RFcsa and the MRC-score were significantly lower than those in the non-ICU-AW group (GDF-15 (pg/ml): 2542.44 ± 629.38 vs. 1542.86 ± 502.86; RFcsa (cm2): 2.04 ± 0.64 vs. 2.34 ± 0.61; MRC-score: 41.22 ± 3.42 vs. 51.42 ± 2.72, all P < 0.05), while the other baseline indicators were not statistically significant between the two groups. As the treatment time increased, the plasma GDF-15 level was significantly increased, the ICU-AW group demonstrated a significant decreasing trend in the MRC-score and RFcsa, while no significant changes were found in the non-ICU-AW group. In the ICU-AW group, the plasma GDF-15 level was significantly higher than that in the non-ICU-AW group, while the RFcsa and the MRC-score were significantly lower than those in the non-ICU-AW group (GDF-15 (pg/ml): 2542.44 ± 629.38 vs. 1542.86 ± 502.86; RFcsa (cm2): 2.04 ± 0.64 vs. 2.34 ± 0.61; MRC-score: 41.22 ± 3.42 vs. 51.42 ± 2.72, all r = −0.60), while it was significantly positively correlated with the RFcsa loss (r = −0.60), while it was significantly positively correlated with the RFcsa loss (r = −0.60), while it was significantly positively correlated with the RFcsa loss (r = −0.60), while it was significantly positively correlated with the RFcsa loss (P < 0.05), while the other baseline indicators were not statistically significant between the two groups.

Abstract
WHAT WE ALREADY KNOW ABOUT THIS TOPIC Muscle atrophy is common in the critically ill, and diaphragm atrophy occurs during mechanical ventilation. It is not known whether wasting of diaphragm and nondiaphragm muscle is related. WHAT THIS ARTICLE TELLS US THAT IS NEW Ultrasound was used for serial assessment of diaphragm and pectoral muscle in 97 critically ill patients. Diaphragm and pectoral atrophy occurred in 48% and 29%, respectively, and was associated with septic shock (diaphragm) and steroid use (pectoral); atrophy of the two muscle types appears unrelated. BACKGROUND Muscle atrophy occurs early during critical illnesses. Although diffuse, this atrophy may specifically affect the diaphragm under artificial inactivity accompanying invasive mechanical ventilation. The primary objective of this study was to highlight diaphragm atrophy during the first 5 days of critical illness. Monitoring of pectoral thickness (a nonpostural muscle with mainly phasic function) served as a control. METHODS Diaphragm and pectoral thicknesses were measured by ultrasound within the first 24 h of admission in 97 critically ill patients, including 62 on mechanical ventilation. Thirty-five patients were reexamined at day 5. RESULTS Baseline median (interquartile) values of diaphragm and pectoral thicknesses at day 1 were 2.4 (2.0, 2.9) and 5.9 (4.7, 7.2) mm, respectively (n = 97). Higher values of diaphragm thickness at baseline were positively associated with male sex, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and diabetes. Diaphragm and pectoral atrophies (defined as a decrease of 10% or more between day 1 and day 5) were detected in 48% (17 of 35) and 29% (10 of 34) respectively, and were uncorrelated with each other. Diaphragm atrophy was significantly more frequent in patients with septic shock and in those with mechanical ventilation, as compared with their respective counterparts (71% [10 of 14] vs. 33% [7 of 21], P = 0.027 and 71% [17 of 28] vs. 0% [0 of 7], P = 0.004, respectively), whereas pectoral atrophy was more common in patients treated with steroids as compared with their counterparts (58% [7 of 12] vs. 14% [3 of 22], P = 0.006). A statistically significant association between diaphragm atrophy and outcome was not found. Pectoral atrophy seemed associated with less successful weaning from mechanical ventilation at day 14 (12% [1 of 8] vs. 58% [11 of 19], P = 0.043). CONCLUSIONS Ultrasound enables identification of specific early diaphragm atrophy that affects the majority of mechanically ventilated patients and septic shock patients. Diaphragm atrophy and pectoral muscle atrophy seem to be two unrelated processes.

Prevalence and development of chronic critical illness in acute patients admitted to a respiratory intensive care setting. Pulmonology 2019; 26:151-158.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chronic Critical Illness (chronic CI) is a condition associated to patients surviving an episode of acute respiratory failure (ARF). The prevalence and the factors associated with the development of chronic CI in the population admitted to a Respiratory Intensive Care Unit (RICU) have not yet been clarified. METHODS An observational prospective cohort study was undertaken at the RICU of the University Hospital of Modena (Italy). Patients mechanically ventilated with ARF in RICU were enrolled. Demographics, severity scores (APACHEII, SOFA, SAPSII), and clinical condition (septic shock, pneumonia, ARDS) were recorded on admission. Respiratory mechanics and inflammatory-metabolic blood parameters were measured both on admission and over the first week of stay. All variables were tested as predictors of chronic CI through univariate and multivariate analysis. RESULTS Chronic CI occurred in 33 out of 100 patients observed. Higher APACHEII, the presence of septic shock, diaphragmatic dysfunction (DD) at sonography, multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacterial infection, the occurrence of a second infection during stay, and a C-reactive protein (CRP) serum level inceasing 7 days over admission were associated with chronic CI. Septic shock was the strongest predictor of chronic CI (AUC = 0.92 p < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS Chronic CI is frequent in patients admitted to RICU and mechanically ventilated due to ARF. Infection-related factors seem to play a major role as predictors of this syndrome.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation (MV) can save the lives of patients with sepsis. However, MV in both animal and human studies has resulted in ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction (VIDD). Sepsis may promote skeletal muscle atrophy in critically ill patients. Elevated high-mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) levels are associated with patients requiring long-term MV. Ethyl pyruvate (EP) has been demonstrated to lengthen survival in patients with severe sepsis. We hypothesized that the administration of HMGB1 inhibitor EP or anti-HMGB1 antibody could attenuate sepsis-exacerbated VIDD by repressing HMGB1 signalling. Male C57BL/6 mice with or without endotoxaemia were exposed to MV (10 mL/kg) for 8 hours after administrating either 100 mg/kg of EP or 100 mg/kg of anti-HMGB1 antibody. Mice exposed to MV with endotoxaemia experienced augmented VIDD, as indicated by elevated proteolytic, apoptotic and autophagic parameters. Additionally, disarrayed myofibrils and disrupted mitochondrial ultrastructures, as well as increased HMGB1 mRNA and protein expression, and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 protein, oxidative stress, autophagosomes and myonuclear apoptosis were also observed. However, MV suppressed mitochondrial cytochrome C and diaphragm contractility in mice with endotoxaemia (P < 0.05). These deleterious effects were alleviated by pharmacologic inhibition with EP or anti-HMGB1 antibody (P < 0.05). Our data suggest that EP attenuates endotoxin-enhanced VIDD by inhibiting HMGB1 signalling pathway.

Abstract
Intensive care unit-acquired weakness (ICU-AW) is the most common neuromuscular impairment in critically ill patients. We discuss critical aspects of ICU-AW that have not been completely defined or that are still under discussion. Critical illness polyneuropathy, myopathy, and muscle atrophy contribute in various proportions to ICU-AW. Diagnosis of ICU-AW is clinical and is based on Medical Research Council sum score and handgrip dynamometry for limb weakness and recognition of a patient's ventilator dependency or difficult weaning from artificial ventilation for diaphragmatic weakness (DW). ICU-AW can be caused by a critical illness polyneuropathy, a critical illness myopathy, or muscle disuse atrophy, alone or in combination. Its diagnosis requires both clinical assessment of muscle strength and complete electrophysiological evaluation of peripheral nerves and muscles. The peroneal nerve test (PENT) is a quick simplified electrophysiological test with high sensitivity and good specificity that can be used instead of complete electrophysiological evaluation as a screening test in non-cooperative patients. DW, assessed by bilateral phrenic nerve magnetic stimulation or diaphragm ultrasound, can be an isolated event without concurrent limb muscle involvement. Therefore, it remains uncertain whether DW and limb weakness are different manifestations of the same syndrome or are two distinct entities. Delirium is often associated with ICU-AW but a clear correlation between these two entities requires further studies. Artificial nutrition may have an impact on ICU-AW, but no study has assessed the impact of nutrition on ICU-AW as the primary outcome. Early mobilization improves activity limitation at hospital discharge if it is started early in the ICU, but beneficial long-term effects are not established. Determinants of ICU-AW can be many and can interact with each other. Therefore, future studies assessing early mobilization should consider a holistic patient approach with consideration of all components that may lead to muscle weakness.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Intensive care unit-acquired weakness (ICU-AW) is often observed in critically ill patients with prolonged intensive care unit (ICU) stay. We hypothesized that evolving metabolic abnormalities during prolonged ICU stay are reflected by changing nutrient patterns in blood, urine and skeletal muscle, and that these patterns differ in patients with/without ICU-AW and between patients with/without sepsis. METHODS In a prospective single-center observational trial, we aim to recruit 100 critically ill patients (ICU length of stay ≥ 5 days) with severe sepsis/septic shock ("sepsis group", n = 50) or severe head trauma/intracerebral hemorrhage ("CNS group", n = 50). Patients will be sub-grouped for presence or absence of ICU-AW as determined by the Medical Research Council sum score. Blood and urine samples will be collected and subjected to comprehensive nutrient analysis at different time points by targeted quantitative mass spectrometric methods. In addition, changes in muscular tissue (biopsy, when available), muscular architecture (ultrasound), electrophysiology, body composition analyses (bioimpedance, cerebral magnetic resonance imaging), along with clinical status will be assessed. Patients will be followed-up for 180 and 360 days including assessment of quality of life. DISCUSSION Key objective of this trial is to assess changes in nutrient pattern in blood and urine over time in critically ill patients with/without ICU-AW by using quantitative nutrient analysis techniques. Peer-reviewed published NAChO data will allow for a better understanding of metabolic changes in critically ill patients on standard liquid enteral nutrition and will likely open up new avenues for future therapeutic and nutritional interventions.

Abstract
Introduction: Intubation is required to maintain the airways in comatose patients and enhance oxygenation in hypoxemic or ventilation in hypercapnic subjects. Recently, the Centers of Disease Control (CDC) created new surveillance definitions designed to identify complications associated with poor outcomes. Areas covered: The new framework proposed by CDC, Ventilator-Associated Events (VAE), has a range of definitions encompassing Ventilator-Associated Conditions (VAC), Infection-related Ventilator-Associated Complications (IVAC), or Possible Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia - suggesting replacing the traditional definitions of Ventilator-Associated Tracheobronchitis (VAT) and Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia (VAP). They focused more on oxygenation variations than on Chest-X rays or inflammatory biomarkers. This article will review the spectrum of infectious (VAP & VAT) complications, as well as the main non-infectious complications, namely pulmonary edema, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and atelectasis. Strategies to limit these complications and improve outcomes will be presented. Expert commentary: Improving outcomes should be the objective of implementing bundles of prevention, based on risk factors amenable of intervention. Promotion of measures that reduce the exposition or duration of intubation should be a priority.
