Abstract
Regulatory T cells (Tregs) are crucial immune cells that initiate a tolerable immune response. Transforming growth factor-beta (TGFβ) is a key cytokine produced by Tregs and plays a significant role in stimulating tissue fibrosis. Systemic sclerosis, an autoimmune disease characterized by organ fibrosis, is associated with an overrepresentation of regulatory T cells. This review aims to identify Treg-dominant tolerable host immune reactions and discuss their association with scleroderma and end-stage organ failure. End-stage organ failures, including heart failure, liver cirrhosis, uremia, and pulmonary fibrosis, are frequently linked to tissue fibrosis. This suggests that TGFβ-producing Tregs are involved in the pathogenesis of these conditions. However, the exact significance of TGFβ and the mechanisms through which it induces tolerable immune reactions during end-stage organ failure remain unclear. A deeper understanding of these mechanisms could lead to improved preventive and therapeutic strategies for these severe diseases.

Abstract
Animals have evolved a multitude of signaling pathways that enable them to orchestrate diverse physiological processes to tightly regulate systemic homeostasis. This signaling is mediated by various families of peptide hormones and cytokines that are conserved across the animal kingdom. In this review, we primarily focus on the unpaired (Upd) family of proteins in Drosophila which are evolutionarily related to mammalian leptin and the cytokine interleukin 6. We summarize expression patterns of Upd in Drosophila and discuss the parallels in structure, signaling pathway, and functions between Upd and their mammalian counterparts. In particular, we focus on the roles of Upd in governing metabolic homeostasis, growth and development, and immune responses. We aim to stimulate future studies on leptin-like signaling in other phyla which can help bridge the evolutionary gap between insect Upd and vertebrate leptin and cytokines like interleukin 6.

Abstract
The prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is increasing globally, especially in elderly patients. Uremic cardiomyopathy is a common cardiovascular complication of CKD, characterized by left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), diastolic dysfunction, and fibrosis. Kisspeptins and their receptor, KISS1R, exert a pivotal influence on kidney pathophysiology and modulate age-related pathologies across various organ systems. KISS1R agonists, including kisspeptin-13 (KP-13), hold promise as novel therapeutic agents within age-related biological processes and kidney-related disorders. Our investigation aimed to elucidate the impact of KP-13 on the trajectory of CKD and uremic cardiomyopathy. Male Wistar rats (300-350 g) were randomized into four groups: (I) sham-operated, (II) 5/6 nephrectomy-induced CKD, (III) CKD subjected to a low dose of KP-13 (intraperitoneal 13 µg/day), and (IV) CKD treated with a higher KP-13 dose (intraperitoneal 26 µg/day). Treatments were administered daily from week 3 for 10 days. After 13 weeks, KP-13 increased systemic blood pressure, accentuating diastolic dysfunction's echocardiographic indicators and intensifying CKD-associated markers such as serum urea levels, glomerular hypertrophy, and tubular dilation. Notably, KP-13 did not exacerbate circulatory uremic toxin levels, renal inflammation, or fibrosis markers. In contrast, the higher KP-13 dose correlated with reduced posterior and anterior wall thickness, coupled with diminished cardiomyocyte cross-sectional areas and concurrent elevation of inflammatory (Il6, Tnf), fibrosis (Col1), and apoptosis markers (Bax/Bcl2) relative to the CKD group. In summary, KP-13's influence on CKD and uremic cardiomyopathy encompassed heightened blood pressure and potentially activated inflammatory and apoptotic pathways in the left ventricle.

Abstract
COVID-19 is a complex disease that can lead to fatal respiratory failure with extrapulmonary complications, either as a direct result of viral invasion in multiple organs or secondary to oxygen supply shortage. Liver is susceptible to many viral pathogens, and due to its versatile functions in the body, it is of great interest to determine how hepatocytes may interact with SARS-CoV-2 in COVID-19 patients. Liver injury is a major cause of death, and SARS-CoV-2 is suspected to contribute significantly to hepatopathy. Owing to the lack of knowledge in this field, further research is required to address these ambiguities. Therefore, we aimed to provide a comprehensive insight into host-virus interactions, underlying mechanisms, and associated risk factors by collecting results from epidemiological analyses and relevant laboratory experiments. Backed by an avalanche of recent studies, our findings support that liver injury is a sequela of severe COVID-19, and certain pre-existing liver conditions can also intensify the morbidity of SARS-CoV-2 infection in synergy. Notably, age, sex, lifestyle, dietary habits, coinfection, and particular drug regimens play a decisive role in the final outcome and prognosis as well. Taken together, our goal was to unravel these complexities concerning the development of novel diagnostic, prophylactic, and therapeutic approaches with a focus on prioritizing high-risk groups.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative kidney dysfunction is a risk factor for right heart failure (RHF) after implantation of a left ventricular assist device (LVAD). However, characteristic kidney function trajectories before and after post-LVAD RHF are uncertain, so we investigated this. METHODS AND RESULTS We identified individuals who received primary continuous-flow LVAD implantation from July 1, 2014 to December 31, 2017 in the Interagency Registry for Mechanically Assisted Circulatory Support (INTERMACS) data set. Incident RHF was ascertained using the INTERMACS definition at 1 and 3 months and classified as transient or persistent. Kidney function trajectories before and after RHF onset, and relationships of baseline kidney function with RHF risk at the different time points, were assessed. We identified 8076 LVAD recipients who met inclusion criteria. Incident RHF was present at 1 month in 26.4%. There were 4850 individuals with follow-up at 3 months, with incident RHF in 4.2%. Kidney function trajectories differed from pre-LVAD implantation to 1-month follow-up by RHF category, with those developing persistent RHF having no improvement in baseline kidney function. For trajectories before the 3-month RHF ascertainment time, the shape was similar for those with and without RHF, with lower estimated glomerular filtration rate levels among those who developed RHF. Baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate levels below the normal range were associated with higher risk of RHF at 1 and 3 months. CONCLUSIONS In LVAD recipients, preimplantation kidney function and subsequent kidney function trajectories differed substantially by RHF at 1 and 3 months postimplantation, even after adjustment for several confounders. This may demonstrate bidirectional associations between kidney function and right ventricular function in LVAD recipients.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is required in the Berlin definition of acute respiratory distress syndrome and is a cornerstone of its treatment. Application of PEEP increases airway pressure and modifies pleural and transpulmonary pressures according to respiratory mechanics, resulting in blood volume alteration into the pulmonary circulation. This can in turn affect right ventricular preload, afterload and function. At the opposite, PEEP may improve left ventricular function, providing no deleterious effect occurs on the right ventricle. RECENT FINDINGS This review examines the impact of PEEP on cardiac function with regards to heart-lung interactions, and describes its consequences on organs perfusion and function, including the kidney, gut, liver and the brain. PEEP in itself is not beneficious nor detrimental on end-organ hemodynamics, but its hemodynamic effects vary according to both respiratory mechanics and association with other hemodynamic variables such as central venous or mean arterial pressure. There are parallels in the means of preventing deleterious impact of PEEP on the lungs, heart, kidney, liver and central nervous system. SUMMARY The quest for optimal PEEP settings has been a prominent goal in ARDS research for the last decades. Intensive care physician must maintain a high degree of vigilance towards hemodynamic effects of PEEP on cardiac function and end-organs circulation.

Abstract
Organ crosstalk is a complex biological communication between distal organs mediated via cellular, soluble, and neurohormonal actions, based on a two-way pathway. The communication between the central nervous system and peripheral organs involves nerves, endocrine, and immunity systems as well as the emotional and cognitive centers of the brain. Particularly, acute brain injury is complicated by neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration causing multiorgan inflammation, microbial dysbiosis, gastrointestinal dysfunction and dysmotility, liver dysfunction, acute kidney injury, and cardiac dysfunction. Organ crosstalk has become increasingly popular, although the information is still limited. The present narrative review provides an update on the crosstalk between the nervous system and systemic organs after acute brain injury. Future research might help to target this pathophysiological process, preventing the progression toward multiorgan dysfunction in critically ill patients with brain injury.

Abstract
Renal congestion is an issue of cardiorenal syndrome in patients with heart failure. Recent clinical and basic studies suggest a renoprotective potential of sodium-glucose cotransporter (SGLT) 2 inhibitors. However, the effect on renal congestion and its mechanism is not fully understood. Thus, we aimed to clarify the effect of SGLT inhibition in a renal congestion model. Renal congestion was induced in the left kidney of male Sprague-Dawley rats by ligation of the inferior vena cava between the renal veins. The SGLT2 inhibitor tofogliflozin or vehicle was orally administered daily from the day before IVC ligation until two days after surgery. On the third postoperative day, both the right control kidney and the left congested kidney were harvested and analyzed. Kidney weight and water content was increased, and renal injury and fibrosis were observed in the left congested kidney. Kidney weight gain and hydration were improved with tofogliflozin treatment. Additionally, this treatment effectively reduced renal injury and fibrosis, particularly in the renal cortex. SGLT2 expression was observed in the congested kidney, but suppressed in the damaged tubular cells. Molecules associated with inflammation were increased in the congested kidney and reversed by tofogliflozin treatment. Mitochondrial dysfunction provoked by renal congestion was also improved by tofogliflozin treatment. Tofogliflozin protects against renal damage induced by renal congestion. SGLT2 inhibitors could be a candidate strategy for renal impairment associated with heart failure.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease is a prevalent complication in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on maintenance hemodialysis. In the ESRD patient population, cardiovascular mortality is 20 times higher compared to the general population. The strong relationship between both illnesses can be explained through cardiorenal syndrome (CRS). CRS encompasses a spectrum of disorders involving both the heart and kidneys in which acute or chronic dysfunction in one organ may induce a similar effect in the other organ. Current literature reveals that inflammation and thrombosis are integral to CRS development. Hence, this study aims to demonstrate whether thromboinflammatory biomarkers and laboratory parameters correlate with ESRD progression and the development of CRS. Ninety-five ESRD patients were recruited at Loyola University Medical Center hemodialysis unit. Epic chart analysis was used to determine patients with CRS. Biomarkers (C-reactive protein, tumor necrosis factor alpha, interleukin-6, Annexin V, L-fatty acid binding protein, monocyte chemoattractant protein 1, nitric oxide, von Willebrand factor, D-dimer, and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1) were profiled using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method in patients with and without CRS in the ESRD cohort. All biomarkers were significantly elevated in ESRD patients compared to normal controls (P < .05) and laboratory parameters, ferritin (521.99 ± 289.33) and PTH (442.91 ± 1.50). Through EPIC chart analysis 47% of ESRD patients have CRS. D-dimer and TNF-α were significantly elevated in patients with CRS compared to patients without CRS. This study suggests that biomarkers, D-dimer, and TNF-α, can be good predictors of CRS in ESRD patients.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease represents a complex and multifaceted pathology characterized by the presence of structural or functional renal anomalies associated with a persistent reduction in renal function. As the disease progresses, complications arise due to the chronic inflammatory syndrome, hydro-electrolytic disorders, and toxicity secondary to the uremic environment. Cardiovascular complications are the leading cause of death for these patients. Ischemic cardiac pathology can be both a consequence and complication of chronic kidney disease, highlighting the need to identify specific cardiorenal dysfunction biomarkers targeting pathophysiological mechanisms common to both conditions. This identification is crucial for establishing accurate diagnoses, prognoses, and risk stratifications for patients. This work is intended to elucidate the intricate relationship between chronic kidney disease and ischemic heart disease and to investigate the roles of cardiorenal biomarkers, including cardiac troponin, natriuretic peptides, galectin-3, copeptin, fibroblast growth factor 23 and its co-receptor Klotho, soluble suppression of tumorigenicity 2, and plasma growth differentiation factor 15.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease is a global health problem affecting 10% to 12% of the population. Uremic cardiomyopathy is often characterized by left ventricular hypertrophy, fibrosis, and diastolic dysfunction. Dysregulation of neuregulin-1β signaling in the heart is a known contributor to heart failure. The systemically administered recombinant human neuregulin-1β for 10 days in our 5/6 nephrectomy-induced model of chronic kidney disease alleviated the progression of uremic cardiomyopathy and kidney dysfunction in type 4 cardiorenal syndrome. The currently presented positive preclinical data warrant clinical studies to confirm the beneficial effects of recombinant human neuregulin-1β in patients with chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
Uremic cardiomyopathy is characterized by diastolic dysfunction, left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), and fibrosis. Dysregulation of the kisspeptin receptor (KISS1R)-mediated pathways are associated with the development of fibrosis in cancerous diseases. Here, we investigated the effects of the KISS1R antagonist peptide-234 (P234) on the development of uremic cardiomyopathy. Male Wistar rats (300-350 g) were randomized into four groups: (i) Sham, (ii) chronic kidney disease (CKD) induced by 5/6 nephrectomy, (iii) CKD treated with a lower dose of P234 (ip. 13 µg/day), (iv) CKD treated with a higher dose of P234 (ip. 26 µg/day). Treatments were administered daily from week 3 for 10 days. At week 13, the P234 administration did not influence the creatinine clearance and urinary protein excretion. However, the higher dose of P234 led to reduced anterior and posterior wall thicknesses, more severe interstitial fibrosis, and overexpression of genes associated with left ventricular remodeling (Ctgf, Tgfb, Col3a1, Mmp9), stretch (Nppa), and apoptosis (Bax, Bcl2, Casp7) compared to the CKD group. In contrast, no significant differences were found in the expressions of apoptosis-associated proteins between the groups. Our results suggest that the higher dose of P234 hastens the development and pathophysiology of uremic cardiomyopathy by activating the fibrotic TGF-β-mediated pathways.

Abstract
This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with severe acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The study analyzed data from 945 AMI patients hospitalized between January 2016 and December 2017, out of which 21 patients underwent perioperative CRRT for PCI. We assessed the baseline characteristics of severe AMI patients before and after CRRT and examined the effect of CRRT on cardiac, renal, and liver function, as well as other indicators. The heart rate of patients undergoing CRRT was significantly lower at 24 h and 48 h after CRRT than before CRRT (p=0.038). There was a moderate but not significant decrease in the mean systolic blood pressure or diastolic blood pressure (p>0.05). Importantly, we found that significantly more patients showed Killip class I-II and significantly improved cardiac function after CRRT (23.8% vs. 57.1%, p=0.001). The levels of urea nitrogen, creatinine, aspartate aminotransferase, glutamic pyruvic transaminase, and total bilirubin were significantly lowered after CRRT treatment (p<0.05). Perioperative management of CRRT was safe and effective for severe AMI patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the effect of respiratory muscle training on respiratory muscle strength, lung function, cardiopulmonary fitness, and quality of life for chronic kidney disease patients. METHODS PubMed, Embase, Web of Science Core Collection, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials published randomized controlled trials that evaluated the effect of respiratory muscle training for chronic kidney disease patients from inception to December 2021, and rerun on September 2022. The quality of included studies was evaluated according to the Cochrane Collaboration's risk of bias tool-2. The outcomes were analyzed as mean differences with a fixed/random effect model. The strength of evidence was evaluated with the Grading of Recommendation, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation approach. RESULTS Eleven randomized controlled trials were included. All but two of the studies were in hemodialysis patients. The follow-up time range was 4 to 12 weeks. Compared to controls, respiratory muscle training significantly improved maximal expiratory pressure (mean difference = 17.36, p = 0.013), maximal inspiratory pressure (mean difference = 18.26, p = 0.002), forced expiratory volume at 1 second (mean difference = 0.20, p= 0.020), forced vital capacity (mean difference = 0.26, p = 0.008), but not for 6-minute walk test (mean difference = 39.85, p= 0.138). CONCLUSIONS As a non-pharmacological therapy, respiratory muscle training can effectively improve maximal expiratory pressure, maximal inspiratory pressure, forced expiratory volume at 1 second, and forced vital capacity in patients with chronic kidney disease and is safe for such populations.

Abstract
Acute heart failure is a frequent cause of hospital admission in Portugal, and has an increasing tendency given the aging population. Although most admissions for acute heart failure are caused by congestive conditions, not all patients have a congestive phenotype, reflecting the complexity of a process with multiple pathophysiological pathways. The use of diuretics, usually loop diuretics, is the mainstay of treatment for congestion. However, many patients develop resistance, thus constituting a challenge with no consensual solution to date, despite extensive debate over the years. Despite its frequent use in clinical practice, the co-administration of albumin and furosemide remains controversial in the management of patients with acute heart failure, hypoalbuminemia, and diuretic resistance. This review addresses the pathophysiological mechanisms of congestion in patients with acute heart failure and explores the theoretical basis that supports the co-administration of albumin and furosemide in this clinical context. It is intended to clarify the potential benefit of the combined approach in this specific population and identify possible gaps in the literature that could be the subject of future studies.

Am J Physiol Renal Physiol 2023; 324:F287-F300.

Abstract
Patients with cancer represent a unique patient population with increased susceptibility to kidney disease. Drug-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with cancer is a common problem. Cisplatin is a highly effective treatment used in many solid-organ cancers and causes AKI in 30% of patients, increasing the risk of chronic kidney disease development. Most preclinical cisplatin toxicity studies have been completed in mice without cancer. We believe that the physiology of patients with cancer is not adequately represented in preclinical models, and the objective of this study was to determine how lung cancer will alter the nephrotoxicity of cisplatin. A genetically engineered mouse model and a syngeneic xenograft model of lung cancer were used. Mice were divided into the following four groups: 1) noncancer/vehicle, 2) noncancer/cisplatin, 3) cancer/vehicle, and 4) cancer/cisplatin. Mice were administered cisplatin via intraperitoneal injection once a week for 4 wk. Animals were euthanized 72 h following their final cisplatin injection. Mice with lung cancer had increased renal toxicity, injury, and fibrosis following repeated low doses of cisplatin. In addition, lung cancer alone induced kidney injury and fibrosis in the kidney before cisplatin treatment. In conclusion, this is the first study that we are aware of that assesses the impact of cancer on the kidney in conjunction with the nephrotoxicity of cisplatin. We believe that cancer is providing the first hit to the kidney and the subsequent damage from repeated doses of cisplatin becomes unsurmountable, leading to AKI and progression to chronic kidney disease.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Patients with cancer have impaired kidney function and increased susceptibility to nephrotoxic agents. Cisplatin is a commonly used chemotherapeutic with nephrotoxicity as the dose-limiting side effect. Cisplatin nephrotoxicity is almost exclusively studied in mice without cancer. Our current preclinical models do not adequately represent the complexity of patients with cancer. This study demonstrates increased renal toxicity, injury, and fibrosis in mice with lung cancer, which is exacerbated with cisplatin treatment. These results highlight the necessity of using preclinical models that more accurately capture the altered physiology of patients with cancer treated with cisplatin.

Abstract
The gasotransmitter hydrogen sulfide (H2S) plays important physiological and pathological roles in the cardiovascular system. However, the involvement of H2S in recovery from uremic cardiomyopathy (UCM) remains unclear. This study aimed to determine the therapeutic efficacy and elucidate the underlying mechanisms of H2S in UCM. A UCM model was established by 5/6 nephrectomy in 10-week-old C57BL/6 mice. Mice were treated with sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS, H2S donor), L-cysteine [L-Cys, cystathionine gamma-lyase (CSE) substrate], and propargylglycine (PPG, CSE inhibitor). Treatment of H9C2 cardiomyocytes utilized different concentrations of uremic serum, NaHS, PPG, and PI3K inhibitors (LY294002). Mouse heart function was assessed by echocardiography. Pathological changes in mouse myocardial tissue were identified using hematoxylin and eosin and Masson's trichrome staining. Cell viability was assessed using the Cell Counting Kit-8. The protein expressions of CSE, p-PI3K, PI3K, p-PKB, PKB, p-mTOR, mTOR, and autophagy-related markers (Beclin-1, P62, and LC3) were detected using Western blotting. We found that NaHS and L-Cys treatment attenuated myocardial disarray, fibrosis, and left ventricular dysfunction in UCM mice. These abnormalities were further aggravated by PPG supplementation. Enhanced autophagy and decreased phosphorylation of PI3K, PKB, and mTOR protein expression by UCM were altered by NaHS and L-Cys treatment. In vitro, uremic serum increased overactive autophagy and decreased the phosphorylation levels of PI3K, PKB, and mTOR in cardiomyocytes, which was substantially exacerbated by endogenous H2S deficiency and attenuated by pre-treatment with 100 µm NaHS. However, the protective effects of NaHS were completely inhibited by LY294002. These findings support a protective effect of H2S exerted against UCM by reducing overactive autophagy through activation of the PI3K/PKB/mTOR pathway.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Since CRS is critically dependent on right heart function and involved in interorgan crosstalk, assessment and monitoring of both right heart and kidney function are of utmost importance for clinical outcomes. This systematic review aims to comprehensively report on novel diagnostic and therapeutic paradigms that are gaining importance for the clinical management of the growing heart failure population suffering from CRS. RECENT FINDINGS Cardiorenal syndrome (CRS) in patients with heart failure is associated with poor outcome. Although systemic venous congestion and elevated central venous pressure have been recognized as main contributors to CRS, they are often neglected in clinical practice. The delicate hemodynamic balance in CRS is particularly determined by the respective status of the right heart. The consideration of hemodynamic and CRS profiles is advantageous in tailoring treatment for better preservation of renal function. Assessment and monitoring of right heart and renal function by known and emerging tools like renal Doppler ultrasonography or new biomarkers may have direct clinical implications.

Exercise and nutritional interventions on sarcopenia and frailty in heart failure: a narrative review of systematic reviews and meta-analyses. ESC Heart Fail 2022; 9:2787-2799.

Abstract
The purpose of this review is to describe the present evidence for exercise and nutritional interventions as potential contributors in the treatment of sarcopenia and frailty (i.e. muscle mass and physical function decline) and the risk of cardiorenal metabolic comorbidity in people with heart failure (HF). Evidence primarily from cross-sectional studies suggests that the prevalence of sarcopenia in people with HF is 37% for men and 33% for women, which contributes to cardiac cachexia, frailty, lower quality of life, and increased mortality rate. We explored the impact of resistance and aerobic exercise, and nutrition on measures of sarcopenia and frailty, and quality of life following the assessment of 35 systematic reviews and meta-analyses. The majority of clinical trials have focused on resistance, aerobic, and concurrent exercise to counteract the progressive loss of muscle mass and strength in people with HF, while promising effects have also been shown via utilization of vitamin D and iron supplementation by reducing tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-a), c-reactive protein (CRP), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels. Experimental studies combining the concomitant effect of exercise and nutrition on measures of sarcopenia and frailty in people with HF are scarce. There is a pressing need for further research and well-designed clinical trials incorporating the anabolic and anti-catabolic effects of concurrent exercise and nutrition strategies in people with HF.

Abstract
The concept of cardiorenal syndrome (CRS) is derived from the crosstalk between the heart and kidneys in pathological conditions. Despite the rising importance of CRS, there is a paucity of information on the understanding of its pathophysiology and management, increasing both morbidity and mortality for patients. This review summarizes the existing conceptual pathophysiology of different types of CRS and delves into the associated therapeutic modalities with a focus on pediatric cases. Prospective or retrospective observational studies, comparative studies, case reports, case-control, and cross-sectional studies that include pediatric patients with CRS were included in this review. Literature was searched using PubMed, EMBASE, and Google Scholar with keywords including "cardio-renal syndrome, type," "reno-cardio syndrome," "children," "acute kidney injury," and "acute decompensated heart failure" from January 2000 to January 2021. A total of 14 pediatric studies were ultimately included and analyzed, comprising a combined population of 3608 children of which 32% had CRS. Of the 14 studies, 57% were based on type 1 CRS, 14% on types 2 and 3 CRS, and 7% were on types 4 and 5 CRS. The majority of included studies were prospective cohort, although a wide spectrum was observed in terms of patient age, comorbidities, etiologies, and treatment strategies. Commonly observed comorbidities in CRS type 1 were hematologic, oncologic, cardiology-related side effects, muscular dystrophy, and pneumonia/bronchiolitis. CRS, particularly type 1, is prevalent in children and has a significant risk of mortality. The current treatment regimen primarily involves diuretics, extracorporeal fluid removal, and treatment of underlying etiologies and comorbidities.

Abstract
Cardio-pulmonary diseases, which were once regarded as a man's illness, have been one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality for both men and women in many countries in recent years. Both gender and sex influence the functional and structural changes in the human body and therefore play an important role in disease clinical manifestation, treatment choice, and/or response to treatment and prognosis of health outcomes. The gender dimension integrates sex and gender analysis in health sciences and medical research, however, it is still relatively overlooked suggesting the need for empowerment in the medical research community. Latest advances in the field of cardiovascular research have provided supportive evidence that the application of biological variables of sex has led to the understanding that heart disease in females may have different pathophysiology compared to males, particularly in younger adults. It has also resulted in new diagnostic techniques and a better understanding of symptomatology, while gender analysis has informed more appropriate risk stratification and prevention strategies. The existing knowledge in the pulmonary field shows the higher prevalence of pulmonary disorders among females, however, the role of gender as a socio-cultural construct has yet to be explored for the implementation of targeted interventions. The purpose of this review is to introduce the concept of gender dimension and its importance for the cardiopulmonary continuum with a focus on shared pathophysiology and disease presentation in addition to interrelation with chronic kidney disease. The review presents basic knowledge of what gender dimension means, and the application of sex and gender aspects in cardiovascular medicine with a specific focus on early pulmonary development, pulmonary hypertension, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Early vascular aging and inflammation have been presented as a potential pathophysiological link, with further interactions between the cardiopulmonary continuum and chronic kidney disease. Finally, implications for potential future research have been provided to increase the impact of gender dimension on research excellence that would add value to everybody, foster toward precision medicine and ultimately improve human health.

Abstract
The concept of extracorporeal organ support (ECOS) encompasses kidney, respiratory, cardiac and hepatic support. In an era of increasing incidence and survival of patients with single or multiple organ failure, knowledge on both multiorgan crosstalk and the physiopathological consequences of extracorporeal organ support have become increasingly important. Immerse within the cross-talk of multiple organ failure (MOF), Acute kidney injury (AKI) may be a part of the clinical presentation in patients undergoing ECOS, either as a concurrent clinical issue since the very start of ECOS or as a de novo event at any point in the clinical course. At any point during the clinical course of a patient with single or multiple organ failure undergoing ECOS, renal function may improve or deteriorate, as a result of the interaction of multiple factors, including multiorgan crosstalk and physiological consequences of ECOS. Common physiopathological ways in which ECOS may influence renal function includes: 1) multiorgan crosstalk (preexisting or de-novo 2)Hemodynamic changes and 3) ECOS-associated coagulation abnormalities and 3) Also, cytokine profile switch, neurohumoral changes and toxins clearance may contribute to the expected physiological changes related to ECOS. The main objective of this review is to summarize the described mechanisms influencing the renal function during the course of ECOS, including renal replacement therapy, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation/carbon dioxide removal and albumin dialysis.

Abstract
Recent advances have improved our understanding of the epidemiology and pathophysiology of acute kidney injury (AKI). So far, the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcome guidelines define and stratify kidney injury based on increases in serum creatinine level and/or decreases in urine output. Although the term AKI acknowledges the existence of cellular injury, its diagnosis is still only defined by the reduced excretory function of the kidney. New biomarkers that aid a better understanding of the relationship between acute tubular injury and kidney dysfunction have been identified, reflecting the advances in molecular biology. The expression of some of these novel biomarkers precedes changes in conventional biomarkers or can increase their predictive power. Therefore, they might enhance the clinical accuracy of the definition of AKI. This review summarizes the limitations of the current AKI classification and a panel of candidate biomarkers for augmenting AKI classification and recognition of AKI subphenotypes. We expect that the integration of appropriately selected biomarkers in routine clinical practice can improve AKI care.

Abstract
Sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI) is a common complication in critically ill patients with high morbidity and mortality. SA-AKI varies considerably in disease presentation, progression, and response to treatment, highlighting the heterogeneity of the underlying biological mechanisms. In this review, we briefly describe the pathophysiology of SA-AKI, biomarkers, reference databases, and available omics techniques. Advances in omics technology allow for comprehensive analysis of SA-AKI, and the integration of multiple omics provides an opportunity to understand the information flow behind the disease. These approaches will drive a shift in current paradigms for the prevention, diagnosis, and staging and provide the renal community with significant advances in precision medicine in SA-AKI analysis.

MATERIALS AND METHODS Data were retrieved from the SEA-AKI study, a multinational multicenter database of adult ICUs from Thailand, Laos, and Indonesia. AKI was defined using KDIGO criteria stage 2-3. ARF was defined by being mechanically ventilated. Patients were assigned into 6 patterns based on AKI and ARF sequence: "no AKI/ARF", "ARF alone", "AKI alone", "ARF first", "AKI first", and "Concurrent AKI-ARF". The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality of each pattern. RESULTS A final cohort of 5468 patients were eligible for the analysis. The "Concurrent AKI-ARF" had the highest in-hospital mortality of 69.6%. The "AKI first" and the "ARF first" had in-hospital mortality of 54.4% and 53%, respectively. Among patients with single organ failure, in-hospital mortality was 14.6% and 31.5% in the "AKI alone" and the "ARF alone", accordingly. In-hospital mortality was 12.4% in patients without AKI and ARF. CONCLUSION Critically ill patients with ARF and AKI are at higher risk of in-hospital death. Different patterns of AKI and ARF interaction result in unique clinical outcomes as well as risk factors.

Abstract
PURPOSE To examine the impact of chronic comorbidities on mortality in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). MATERIALS AND METHODS Retrospective cohort study of adults with ARDS (ICD-10-CM code J80) from the National Inpatient Sample between January, 2016 and December, 2018. For the primary outcome of mortality, we conducted weighted logistic regression adjusting for factors identified on univariate analysis as potentially significant or differing between the two groups at baseline. We used negative binomial regression adjusting for the same comorbidities to identify risk factors for longer length of stay (LOS) among ARDS survivors. RESULTS After exclusions, 1046 records were analyzed (3355 ARDS survivors and 1875 non-survivors.) The comorbidities examined included hypertension, diabetes mellitus, obesity, hypothyroidism, alcohol and drug use, chronic kidney disease (CKD), cardiovascular disease, chronic liver disease, chronic pulmonary disease and malignancy. In multivariate analysis, we found that malignancy (OR 2.26, 95% CI 1.84-2.78, p < 0.001), cardiovascular disease (OR 1.54, 95% CI 1.23-1.92, p < 0.001), and CKD (OR 1.75, 95% CI 1.22-2.50, p = 0.002) increased the risk of death. In interaction analyses, cardiovascular disease combined with either malignancy or CKD conferred higher odds of death compared to either risk factor alone. CONCLUSIONS The comorbidity of malignancy confers the most reliable risk of poor outcomes in ARDS with higher odds of hospital death and a simultaneous association with longer hospital LOS among survivors.

Abstract
Heart and kidney diseases cause high morbidity and mortality. Heart and kidneys have vital functions in the human body and, interestingly, reciprocally influence each other’s behavior: pathological changes in one organ can damage the other. Cardiorenal syndrome (CRS) is a group of disorders in which there is combined dysfunction of both heart and kidney, but its underlying biological mechanisms are not fully understood. This is because complex, multifactorial, and dynamic mechanisms are likely involved. Effective treatments are currently unavailable, but this may be resolved if more was known about how the disease develops and progresses. To date, CRS has actually only been modeled in mice and rats in vivo. Even though these models can capture cardiorenal interaction, they are difficult to manipulate and control. Moreover, interspecies differences may limit extrapolation to patients. The questions we address here are what would it take to model CRS in vitro and how far are we? There are already multiple independent in vitro (human) models of heart and kidney, but none have so far captured their dynamic organ-organ crosstalk. Advanced in vitro human models can provide an insight in disease mechanisms and offer a platform for therapy development. CRS represents an exemplary disease illustrating the need to develop more complex models to study organ-organ interaction in-a-dish. Human induced pluripotent stem cells in combination with microfluidic chips are one powerful tool with potential to recapitulate the characteristics of CRS in vitro. In this review, we provide an overview of the existing in vivo and in vitro models to study CRS, their limitations and new perspectives on how heart-kidney physiological and pathological interaction could be investigated in vitro for future applications.

Abstract
Rationale: NT-proBNP (N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide), a biomarker of cardiac origin, is used to risk stratify patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Its limitations include poor sensitivity to early vascular pathology. Other biomarkers of vascular or systemic origin may also be useful in the management of PAH. Objectives: Identify prognostic proteins in PAH that complement NT-proBNP and clinical risk scores. Methods: An aptamer-based assay (SomaScan version 4) targeting 4,152 proteins was used to measure plasma proteins in patients with idiopathic, heritable, or drug-induced PAH from the UK National Cohort of PAH (n = 357) and the French EFORT (Evaluation of Prognostic Factors and Therapeutic Targets in PAH) study (n = 79). Prognostic proteins were identified in discovery-replication analyses of UK samples. Proteins independent of 6-minute-walk distance and NT-proBNP entered least absolute shrinkage and selection operator modeling, and the best combination in a single score was evaluated against clinical targets in EFORT. Measurements and Main Results: Thirty-one proteins robustly informed prognosis independent of NT-proBNP and 6-minute-walk distance in the UK cohort. A weighted combination score of six proteins was validated at baseline (5-yr mortality; area under the curve [AUC], 0.73; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.63-0.85) and follow-up in EFORT (AUC, 0.84; 95% CI, 0.75-0.94; P = 9.96 × 10-6). The protein score risk stratified patients independent of established clinical targets and risk equations. The addition of the six-protein model score to NT-proBNP improved prediction of 5-year outcomes from AUC 0.762 (0.702-0.821) to 0.818 (0.767-0.869) by receiver operating characteristic analysis (P = 0.00426 for difference in AUC) in the UK replication and French samples combined. Conclusions: The plasma proteome informs prognosis beyond established factors in PAH and may provide a more sensitive measure of therapeutic response.

Abstract
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common incurable autosomal recessive disease affecting the Caucasian population. As the prognosis for life extension of CF patients improves, co-morbidities, including kidney disease, become more common. Identifying those at the highest risk of kidney injury is therefore extremely important. The aim of this study was to evaluate the biomarkers of renal function in 50 CF patients using the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) based on creatinine and cystatin C equation as well as serum creatinine (sCr), serum cystatin C (CysC), serum urea and urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (uNGAL) concentrations. sCr, CysC, urea and uNGAL were estimated. eGFR was calculated according to the CKD-EPI formula. CysC was significantly increased, while eGFR was significantly lower in the CF group than in the controls (p < 0.001 and p < 0.01, respectively). There was no significant difference in the sCr, urea and uNGAL concentrations between patients with CF and healthy subjects. For the purpose of our analysis, in order to assess renal function in patients with CF in clinical practice, the concentration of serum CysC and eGFRCKD-EPI should be determined. Patients with CF presented with renal function impairment pictured by increased serum CysC and decreased eGFR values compared to controls. Unchanged uNGAL concentrations suggested preserved tubular function despite aminoglycoside treatment. Further prospective studies are needed to clarify whether kidney impairment observed in the course of CF progresses.

Associations Between Myocardial Diastolic Dysfunction and Cardiovascular Mortality in Chronic Kidney Disease: A Large Single-Center Cohort Study. J Am Soc Echocardiogr 2021; 35:395-407. [PMID: 34915133 DOI: 10.1016/j.echo.2021.12.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2021] [Revised: 12/03/2021] [Accepted: 12/05/2021] [Indexed: 01/08/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The clinical burden and prognostic role of diastolic dysfunction (DD), based on the latest American Society of Echocardiography (ASE) 2016 guidelines, remains unclear in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Moreover, risk mapping of concomitant systolic dysfunction and DD to evaluate the hazard of cardiovascular (CV) mortality in CKD remains unexplored. METHODS This retrospective cohort study identified 20,257 adult patients who underwent comprehensive echocardiography between 2008 and 2016 at a tertiary medical center in central Taiwan. The patients were stratified by CKD stage, and the 3-year CV mortality risk in each CKD stratum was estimated through multivariable Cox proportional hazard modeling using left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and DD grades based on ASE 2016 guideline as the main risk factors. RESULTS Compared with patients with CKD stages 1 and 2, those with CKD stages 4 and 5 had a significantly lower LVEF and more severe DD. Both LVEF (LVEF < 40% vs. ≥ 60%; adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] 3.17, 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.54-3.97) and DD grade (severe DD vs. normal diastolic function; aHR 3.33, 95% CI 2.33-4.76) were independently associated with 3-year CV mortality in the entire study population and had comparable effect sizes. The corresponding aHRs further increased to 4.20 (2.45-7.21) and 4.54 (2.20-9.38) in patients with CKD stages 4 and 5. Systolic and diastolic dysfunction demonstrated mutually augmentative effects on CV mortality. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that the current practice of cardioprotection for patients with CKD should be prioritized at an early stage along with conventional nephroprotection.

Abstract
Heart failure-either with reduced or preserved ejection fraction (HFrEF/HFpEF)-is a clinical syndrome of multifactorial and gender-dependent aetiology, indicating the insufficiency of the heart to pump blood adequately to maintain blood flow to meet the body's needs. Typical symptoms commonly include shortness of breath, excessive fatigue with impaired exercise capacity, and peripheral oedema, thereby alluding to the fact that heart failure is a syndrome that affects multiple organ systems. Patients suffering from progressed heart failure have a very limited life expectancy, lower than that of numerous cancer types. In this position paper, we provide an overview regarding interactions between the heart and other organ systems, the clinical evidence, underlying mechanisms, potential available or yet-to-establish animal models to study such interactions and finally discuss potential new drug interventions to be developed in the future. Our working group suggests that more experimental research is required to understand the individual molecular mechanisms underlying heart failure and reinforces the urgency for tailored therapeutic interventions that target not only the heart but also other related affected organ systems to effectively treat heart failure as a clinical syndrome that affects and involves multiple organs.

Abstract
In the phase III RESTORE-IMI 2 study (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT02493764), the combination antibacterial agent imipenem/cilastatin/relebactam (IMI/REL) demonstrated noninferiority to piperacillin/tazobactam for the end points of all-cause mortality at day 28 and favorable clinical response at the early follow-up visit in adult participants with gram-negative hospital-acquired bacterial pneumonia/ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia (HABP/VABP). Existing population pharmacokinetic models for imipenem (IPM) and REL were updated using data from patients with HABP/VABP from RESTORE-IMI 2. Creatinine clearance (CrCl), body weight, infection type, and ventilation status were significant covariates in the updated model. The following simulations were performed to calculate the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic joint probability of target attainment among patients with HABP/VABP and varying degrees of renal function: augmented renal clearance (CrCl ≥150 ml/min), normal renal function (CrCl ≥90 to <150 ml/min), renal impairment (mild, CrCl ≥60 to <90 ml/min; moderate, CrCl ≥30 to <60 ml/min; or severe, CrCl ≥15 to <30 ml/min), and end-stage renal disease (CrCl <15 ml/min). At the recommended IMI/REL dosing regimens across renal categories, greater than 90% of patients in all renal function groups were predicted to achieve joint pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic targets at a minimum inhibitory concentration breakpoint of ≤2 μg/ml, regardless of ventilation status. This modeling and simulation analysis supports use of the recommended IMI/REL dosing regimens, adjusted based on renal function, in patients with HABP/VABP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Malnutrition is frequent in patients with heart failure (HF) and contributes to increased systemic congestion, but also hinders its correct assessment, especially during decompensations. Estimating the degree of malnutrition and its relationship with systemic congestion is important to optimize treatment during decompensations. MATERIAL AND METHODS Retrospective cohort study in patients with acute HF. The population was stratified according to CONUT (Controlling Nutritional Status) and PNI (Prognostic Nutritional Index) nutrition indices in order to analyse their relationship with objective parameters of congestion and the prognostic value of malnutrition. RESULTS 309 patients were included. More than half presented some degree of malnutrition upon admission. The degree of congestion was significantly higher in malnourished patients, with a higher proportion of «comet tail artifacts» and a higher relative plasma volume. NT-proBNP concentrations, both on admission and at discharge, were also significantly higher in malnourished patients, regardless of the scale used. The univariate analysis identified the CONUT and PNI index as factors associated with one-year mortality from any cause (HR 1.62 [1.22-2.14]; p = 0.001) and PNI (HR 65 [0.53-0.80]; p = < 0.001), respectively. CONCLUSIONS A higher degree of malnutrition (determined by means of the CONUT and PNI indices) in patients with acute HF was associated with a higher presence of objective parameters of congestion and a higher one-year all-cause mortality.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Endothelium-dependent (ED) and endothelium-independent (EI) flow-mediated vasodilatation (FMD) have been used as measures of systemic arterial vasodilatory reserve. In this study, we aimed to assess both ED-FMD and EI-FMD in different groups with pulmonary hypertension (PH), and to investigate the relationship of these measures with clinical, echocardiographic, and invasive parameters of diseases severity and targeted treatment status. METHODS Our study population comprised 41 patients with PH [28 (68.2%) women, age 46.3±19.6 years] including idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension, Eisenmenger syndrome, and chronic thromboembolic PH in whom diagnosis were confirmed in accordance with current guidelines and 17 age and sex-matched healthy controls. The brachial artery (BA) was used for assessment of FMD with Duplex ultrasound, and serial changes in diameter were recorded at baseline, 1, and 3 minutes after termination of 2-minute external occlusive compression for ED-FMD, and after sublingual intake of glycerol trinitrate for EI-FMD, respectively. RESULTS Compared with controls, overall the PH group showed significantly lower ED-FMD (0.65±0.21 vs. 0.30±0.23 and 0.65±0.18 vs. 0.24±0.21) and EI-FMD (0.67±0.15 vs. 0.37±0.25 and 0.75±0.20 vs. 0.32±0.24) responses at 1st and 3rd min (p<0.001 for all). All these changes in the values of ED-FMD and EI-FMD were comparable among the PH subgroups. Neither ED-FMD nor EI-FMD were correlated with measures of PH severity and targeted therapy (TT) status (p>0.05). CONCLUSION Our results suggest an impaired BA vasodilatory reserve in patients with PH regardless of the clinical subgroup. Although these findings seem to be consistent with systemic dysfunction, acute FMD may not reflect the severity of PH and cannot be used as a potential surrogate for outcome in this setting.

Abstract
Objective This retrospective multicentre observational study was performed to assess
the predictors of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with acute
decompensated heart failure (ADHF) in emergency departments in China. Methods In total, 1743 consecutive patients with ADHF were recruited from August 2017
to January 2018. Clinical characteristics and outcomes were compared between
patients with and without AKI. Predictors of AKI occurrence and
underdiagnosis were assessed in multivariate regression analyses. Results Of the 1743 patients, 593 (34.0%) had AKI. AKI was partly associated with
short-term all-cause mortality and cost. Cardiovascular comorbidities such
as coronary heart disease, diabetes mellitus, and hypertension remained
significant predictors of AKI in the univariate analysis. AKI was
significantly more likely to occur in patients with a lower arterial pH,
lower albumin concentration, higher creatinine concentration, and higher
N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) concentration. Patients
treated with inotropic agents were significantly more likely to develop AKI
during their hospital stay. Conclusion This study suggests that cardiovascular comorbidities, arterial pH, the
albumin concentration, the creatinine concentration, the NT-proBNP
concentration, and use of inotropic agents are predictors of AKI in patients
with ADHF.

Ischemic preconditioning protects the heart against ischemia-reperfusion injury in chronic kidney disease in both males and females. Biol Sex Differ 2021; 12:49.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Uremic cardiomyopathy is a common cardiovascular complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD) characterized by left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and fibrosis enhancing the susceptibility of the heart to acute myocardial infarction. In the early stages of CKD, approximately 60% of patients are women. We aimed to investigate the influence of sex on the severity of uremic cardiomyopathy and the infarct size-limiting effect of ischemic preconditioning (IPRE) in experimental CKD. METHODS CKD was induced by 5/6 nephrectomy in 9-week-old male and female Wistar rats. Two months later, serum and urine laboratory parameters were measured to verify the development of CKD. Transthoracic echocardiography was performed to assess cardiac function and morphology. Cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and fibrosis were measured by histology. Left ventricular expression of A- and B-type natriuretic peptides (ANP and BNP) were measured by qRT-PCR and circulating BNP level was measured by ELISA. In a subgroup of animals, hearts were perfused according to Langendorff and were subjected to 35 min global ischemia and 120 min reperfusion with or without IPRE (3 × 5 min I/R cycles applied before index ischemia). Then infarct size or phosphorylated and total forms of proteins related to the cardioprotective RISK (AKT, ERK1,2) and SAFE (STAT3) pathways were measured by Western blot. RESULTS The severity of CKD was similar in males and females. However, CKD males developed more severe LVH compared to females as assessed by echocardiography. Histology revealed cardiac fibrosis only in males in CKD. LV ANP expression was significantly increased due to CKD in both sexes, however, LV BNP and circulating BNP levels failed to significantly increase in CKD. In both sexes, IPRE significantly decreased the infarct size in both the sham-operated and CKD groups. IPRE significantly increased the phospho-STAT3/STAT3 ratio in sham-operated but not in CKD animals in both sexes. There were no significant differences in phospho-AKT/AKT and phospho-ERK1,2/ERK1,2 ratios between the groups. CONCLUSION The infarct size-limiting effect of IPRE was preserved in both sexes in CKD despite the more severe uremic cardiomyopathy in male CKD rats. Further research is needed to identify crucial molecular mechanisms in the cardioprotective effect of IPRE in CKD.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) impairs the anti-inflammatory effects of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and increases cardiovascular mortality. Though the potential role of dietary interventions to manage HDL is well studied, the clinical trials aimed to increase HDL levels have failed to reduce cardiovascular risk, rendering HDL function to be explored as a more relevant clinical parameter. This study investigates the effects of rice endosperm protein (REP), a plant-based protein, on the anti-inflammatory properties of HDL and renal injury-driven atherosclerosis in comparison with casein, an animal protein. Ten-week-old apolipoprotein E-deficient hyperlipidemic mice underwent uninephrectomy. The mice (n = 6 each) were pair-fed a normal casein-based diet or a REP-based diet (both with 20.0% protein content) for seven weeks. Atherosclerotic lesions were detected by en face Sudan IV staining of the aorta. The number and sizes of the atherosclerotic lesions were significantly lower in the REP-based diet-fed group than the casein-based diet-fed group (p = 0.038). However, the REP-based diet neither elicited an ameliorative effect on kidney function or histology nor impacted the cholesterol profiles. Furthermore, HDL from the REP-based diet-fed mice significantly suppressed the inflammatory cytokine response of human umbilical vein endothelial cells than that from the casein-based diet-fed mice (MCP-1, p = 0.010; IL-6, p = 0.011; IL-1β, p = 0.028). The REP-based diet has a higher potential to lessen the atherosclerotic lesions accelerated by renal mass reduction than a casein-based diet, which could be associated with the anti-inflammatory effects of HDL.

Abstract
ZusammenfassungPulmonale Hypertonie (PH) beschreibt einen hämodynamischen Zustand, der durch eine
Druckerhöhung im kleinen Kreislauf charakterisiert ist und der insbesondere bei älteren
Patienten häufig zu beobachten ist. In Abhängigkeit der Ätiologie differenziert die klinische
Klassifikation der pulmonalen Hypertonie 5 Hauptgruppen. Unabhängig von der zugrunde liegenden
Ursache führt eine PH zu einer chronischen Rechtsherzbelastung und Rechtsherzinsuffizienz.
Aktuelle Studien zeigen, dass bereits eine moderate Erhöhung des pulmonalarteriellen Druckes
sowie des pulmonalvaskulären Widerstands prognoserelevant sind. Im Einzelfall ist die
konsequente differenzialdiagnostische Abklärung einer PH essenziell, da sich die
Behandlungsoptionen je nach zugrunde liegender Ursache grundlegend unterscheiden.

Abstract
Acute myocardial infarction with cardiogenic shock (AMI-CS) is associated with high mortality and morbidity despite advancements in cardiovascular care. AMI-CS is associated with multiorgan failure of non-cardiac organ systems. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is frequently seen in patients with AMI-CS and is associated with worse mortality and outcomes compared to those without. The pathogenesis of AMI-CS associated with AKI may involve more factors than previously understood. Early use of renal replacement therapies, management of comorbid conditions and judicious fluid administration may help improve outcomes. In this review, we seek to address the etiology, pathophysiology, management, and outcomes of AKI complicating AMI-CS.

Abstract
Our work evaluated cardiac function and mitochondrial bioenergetics parameters in hearts from male Wistar rats subjected to the UUO model during 28 days of progression. We measured markers of kidney damage and inflammation in plasma and renal fibrosis by histological analysis and Western blot. Cardiac function was evaluated by echocardiography and proteins involved in cardiac damage by Western blot. Oxygen consumption and transmembrane potential were monitored in cardiac mitochondria using high-resolution respirometry. We also determined the activity of ATP synthase and antioxidant enzymes such as glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase, and catalase. Our results show that, although renal dysfunction is established in animals subjected to ureteral obstruction, cardiac function is maintained along with mitochondrial function and antioxidant enzymes activity after 28 days of injury evolution. Our results suggest that renocardiac syndrome might develop but belatedly in obstruction-induced renal damage, opening the opportunity for treatment to prevent this condition.

Exploration of the Shared Gene Signatures and Molecular Mechanisms Between Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension: Evidence From Transcriptome Data. Front Immunol 2021; 12:658341. [PMID: 34335565 PMCID: PMC8320323 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2021.658341] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2021] [Accepted: 06/21/2021] [Indexed: 01/22/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease that can affect multiple systems. Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) has a close linkage with SLE. However, the inter-relational mechanisms between them are still unclear. This article aimed to explore the shared gene signatures and potential molecular mechanisms in SLE and PAH. Methods The microarray data of SLE and PAH in the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database were downloaded. The Weighted Gene Co-Expression Network Analysis (WGCNA) was used to identify the co-expression modules related to SLE and PAH. The shared genes existing in the SLE and PAH were performed an enrichment analysis by ClueGO software, and their unique genes were also performed with biological processes analyses using the DAVID website. The results were validated in another cohort by differential gene analysis. Moreover, the common microRNAs (miRNAs) in SLE and PAH were obtained from the Human microRNA Disease Database (HMDD) and the target genes of whom were predicted through the miRTarbase. Finally, we constructed the common miRNAs–mRNAs network with the overlapped genes in target and shared genes. Results Using WGCNA, four modules and one module were identified as the significant modules with SLE and PAH, respectively. A ClueGO enrichment analysis of shared genes reported that highly activated type I IFN response was a common feature in the pathophysiology of SLE and PAH. The results of differential analysis in another cohort were extremely similar to them. We also proposed a disease road model for the possible mechanism of PAH secondary to SLE according to the shared and unique gene signatures in SLE and PAH. The miRNA–mRNA network showed that hsa-miR-146a might regulate the shared IFN-induced genes, which might play an important role in PAH secondary to SLE. Conclusion Our work firstly revealed the high IFN response in SLE patients might be a crucial susceptible factor for PAH and identified novel gene candidates that could be used as biomarkers or potential therapeutic targets.

Conceptual advances and evolving terminology in acute kidney disease. Nat Rev Nephrol 2021; 17:493-502.

Abstract
Over the past decade, new insights into epidemiology, pathophysiology and biomarkers have modified our understanding of acute kidney dysfunction and damage, and their association with subsequent chronic kidney disease. The concept of acute kidney injury (AKI), which has relied on established but nonetheless flawed biomarkers of solute clearance (serum creatinine levels and urinary output), has been challenged by the identification of novel biomarkers of tubular stress and/or damage. The expression of some of these novel biomarkers precedes changes in conventional biomarkers or can increase their predictive power, and might therefore enhance the clinical accuracy of the definition of AKI. In addition, the need to consider AKI recurrence, duration and progression to chronic kidney disease within the clinical and epidemiological framework of AKI led to the emergence of the concept of acute kidney disease. New definitions of acute syndromes of kidney impairment and injury are needed.

Possible benefits of exogenous melatonin for individuals on dialysis: a narrative review on potential mechanisms and clinical implications. Naunyn Schmiedebergs Arch Pharmacol 2021; 394:1599-1611.

Abstract
Prevention of oxidative stress and inflammation in chronic kidney disease patients (CKD) on dialysis may reduce dialysis-associated complications. Administration of powerful antioxidants may improve the consequences of peritoneal dialysis (PD) and hemodialysis (HD). This narrative review aimed to show the potential therapeutic effects of melatonin (MLT) on the consequences of CKD patients receiving HD or PD. The results of preclinical and clinical studies have proven that CKD and dialysis are accompanied by reduced endogenous MLT levels and related complications such as sleep disorders. Enhanced oxidative stress, inflammation, cellular damages, and renal fibrosis, along with dysregulation of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), have been observed in CKD and patients on dialysis. Results of studies have revealed that the restoration of MLT via the exogenous source may regulate oxidative stress, inflammation, and RAS functions, inhibit fibrosis, and improve complications in patients with long-term dialysis patients. In summary, treatment of patients with CKD and dialysis with exogenous MLT is suggested as a practical approach in reducing the outcomes and improving the quality of life in patients via antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-fibrotic signaling pathways. Therefore, this hormone can be considered in clinical practice to manage dialysis-related complications.

Abstract
Kidney disease affects intestinal structure and function. Although intestinal lymphatics are central in absorption and remodeling of dietary and synthesized lipids/lipoproteins, little is known about how kidney injury impacts the intestinal lymphatic network, or lipoproteins transported therein. To study this, we used puromycin aminoglycoside-treated rats and NEP25 transgenic mice to show that proteinuric injury expanded the intestinal lymphatic network, activated lymphatic endothelial cells and increased mesenteric lymph flow. The lymph was found to contain increased levels of cytokines, immune cells, and isolevuglandin (a highly reactive dicarbonyl) and to have a greater output of apolipoprotein AI. Plasma levels of cytokines and isolevuglandin were not changed. However, isolevuglandin was also increased in the ileum of proteinuric animals, and intestinal epithelial cells exposed to myeloperoxidase produced more isolevuglandin. Apolipoprotein AI modified by isolevuglandin directly increased lymphatic vessel contractions, activated lymphatic endothelial cells, and enhanced the secretion of the lymphangiogenic promoter vascular endothelial growth factor-C by macrophages. Inhibition of isolevuglandin synthesis by a carbonyl scavenger reduced intestinal isolevuglandin adduct level and lymphangiogenesis. Thus, our data reveal a novel mediator, isolevuglandin modified apolipoprotein AI, and uncover intestinal lymphatic network structure and activity as a new pathway in the crosstalk between kidney and intestine that may contribute to the adverse impact of kidney disease on other organs.

Hospitalization for acute coronary syndrome increases the long-term risk of pneumonia: a population-based cohort study. Sci Rep 2021; 11:9696.

Abstract
It is well established that the risk of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) increases after respiratory infection. However, the reverse association has not been evaluated. We tested the hypothesis that the long-term risk of pneumonia is increased after a new ACS event. A matched-cohort study was conducted using a nationally representative dataset. We identified patients with admission for ACS between 2004 and 2014, without a previous history of ACS or pneumonia. Incidence density sampling was used to match patients, on the basis of age and sex, to 3 controls who were also free from both ACS and pneumonia. We examined the incidence of pneumonia after ACS until the end of the cohort observation (Dec 31, 2014). The analysis cohort consisted of 5469 ACS cases and 16,392 controls (median age, 64 years; 68.3% men). The incidence rate ratios of the first and the total pneumonia episodes in the ACS group relative to the control group was 1.25 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.11–1.41) and 1.23(95% CI 1.11–1.36), respectively. A significant ACS-related increase in the incidence of pneumonia was observed in the Cox-regression, shared frailty, and joint frailty model analyses, with hazard ratios of 1.25 (95% CI 1.09–1.42), 1.35 (95% CI 1.15–1.58), and 1.24 (95% CI 1.10–1.39), respectively. In this population-based cohort of patients who were initially free from both ACS and pneumonia, we found that hospitalization for ACS substantially increased the long term risk of pneumonia. This should be considered when formulating post-discharge care plans and preventive vaccination strategies in patients with ACS.

Role of mechanical ventilation, venous congestion and perfusion deficit on worsening of renal function: Insights from the MIMIC-III database. J Crit Care 2021; 64:100-107. [PMID: 33845445 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcrc.2021.03.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2020] [Revised: 02/19/2021] [Accepted: 03/22/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Background Mechanical ventilation (MV) in ICU patients may impact hemodynamics and renal function. We aimed to describe the interactions of MV settings, hemodynamic parameters and worsening of renal function (WRF). Methods We included adult patients admitted for the first time in the ICU from the MIMIC-III database. Mean arterial blood pressure (mABP), central venous pressure (CVP) and positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) were collected and summarized as a time-weighted mean. The main outcome was WRF defined as acute kidney injury (AKI) occurrence or one-KDIGO stage worsening compared to the KDIGO stage the day before. We used a multinomial logistic regression at day 1 (ldmk-1) and day 2 (ldmk-2) according to a landmark-approach, with a two-days sliding perspective. Results 27,248/61,051 patients met the inclusion criteria (15,258 male (56.0%); 60.1% over 60 y). ICU and hospital mortality were 7.4 and 10.7%, respectively. MV was independently associated with WRF in the ldmrk-1 and -2 models (relative risk ratio [RRR] 8.15 [6.58;10.11] and 7.08 [3.97;12.61] at day-3 and 4, respectively). In MV patients, PEEP was associated with WRF in the ldmrk-1 and -2 models (RRR 1.36 [1.16, 1.6] and 1.17 [0.88, 1.56] by 1 cmH2O increase at day-3 and 4, respectively). Mean perfusion pressure decreased while central venous pressure increased over PEEP categories. In multivariable analysis, mABP, CVP and PEEP were independently associated with WRF. Conclusion In this large cohort of ICU patients, we observed a strong relationship between MV and WRF. PEEP was associated with WRF in MV patients. This association relied at least partly on renal venous congestion.
