Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study is to describe the clinical characteristics and prognostic risk factors of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) caused by community-acquired pneumonia under different immune states. METHODS The patients were divided into immunocompetent and immunocompromised groups according to their immune status. The basic clinical data of the two groups were collected and statistically analyzed, and the clinical characteristics and prognostic factors of ARDS caused by community-acquired pneumonia under different immune states were summarized. RESULTS 128 patients with ARDS caused by community-acquired pneumonia were enrolled. The chest High-Resolution Computed Tomography (HRCT) scores of patients with immunosuppression were higher (236.0 ± 55.0 vs. 207.5 ± 49.6, p < 0.05) and the score of APACHE II was higher (17.3 ± 4.8 vs. 15.1 ± 5.4, p < 0.05). The 28-day intensive care unit (ICU) mortality was higher in the immunocompromised group (54.5% vs. 34.7%, p = 0.045). The 28-day in-hospital mortality in the immunocompetent group was mainly related to NLR and the oxygenation index. The 28-day in-hospital mortality in the immunocompromised group was mainly related to LDH and APACHE II. CONCLUSION There are differences in clinical characteristics and mortality of ARDS patients caused by community-acquired pneumonia under different immune states.

Factors affecting the outcomes in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome in a tertiary care setting. CLINICAL EPIDEMIOLOGY AND GLOBAL HEALTH 2022; 13:100972. [PMID: 37309426 PMCID: PMC10250822 DOI: 10.1016/j.cegh.2022.100972] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2021] [Revised: 12/27/2021] [Accepted: 01/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose The clinical profile and factors affecting outcomes in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) from adequately sample-sized Indian studies are still lacking. We aimed to investigate the clinical profile, treatment pattern, outcomes; and to assess factors affecting non-recovery in ARDS patients. Patients and methods A retrospective observational study was conducted among adult ARDS patients admitted during five year period (January 2014-December 2018) in a South Indian tertiary care setting. The relevant data were collected from the medical records to the data collection form. The univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify the predictors of outcomes using SPSS v20. Results A total of 857 participants including 496 males and 361 females with a mean age of 46.86 ± 15.81 years were included in this study. Fever (70.9%), crepitation (58.3%), breathlessness (56.9%), and cough (45%) were the major clinical presentation. Hypertension (25.2%), kidney disease (23.8%), and diabetes (22.3%) were the major comorbidities; and sepsis (37.6%), pneumonia (33.3%), and septic shock (27.5%) were the major etiological factors observed. Antibiotics and steroids were administered to 97.9% and 52.3% of the population, respectively. The recovery rate was 47.49%. The patients with scrub typhus, dengue, pancreatitis, and oxygen supplementation had significantly lower mortality. The factors such as advanced age, sepsis, septic shock, liver diseases, and ventilation requirements were observed to be the independent predictors of non-recovery in ARDS patients. Conclusion A comparable recovery rate was observed in our population. Advanced age, sepsis, septic shock, liver diseases, and ventilation requirements were the independent predictors of non-recovery.

Analysis of the Efficacy and Mechanism of Action of Xuebijing Injection on ARDS Using Meta-Analysis and Network Pharmacology. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2021; 2021:8824059. [PMID: 34124260 PMCID: PMC8166476 DOI: 10.1155/2021/8824059] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/16/2020] [Revised: 04/22/2021] [Accepted: 05/06/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
Objective Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is defined as the acute onset of noncardiogenic edema and subsequent gas-exchange impairment due to a severe inflammatory process known as cytokine storm. Xuebijing injection (hereinafter referred to as Xuebijing) is a patent drug that was used to treat ARDS or severe pneumonia (SP) in China. However, its efficacy and mechanism of actions remain unclear. In this study, we used meta-analysis and network pharmacology to assess these traits of Xuebijing. Methods We searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), and Wanfang databases for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that evaluated Xuebijing therapy for ARDS or SP. The outcomes were total mortality, intensive care unit (ICU) stay time, and TNF-α and IL-6 levels. We performed a meta-analysis using RevMan 5.3 software. The putative targets, top 10 proteins, and possible pathway of Xuebinjing on ARDS were analyzed by network pharmacology. TNF-α and IL-6 were further docked with the six main active components of Xuebinjing using AutoDock 4.2.6 and PyMol 1.5.0.3 software. Results Fifteen RCTs involving 2778 patients (13 ARDS and 2 SP) were included. Compared with the control, Xuebijing treatment significantly reduced the mortality rate (risk ratio, 0.64 (95% credible interval (CrI), 0.54-0.77)), reduced the ICU stay time (mean difference (MD), -4.51 (95% CrI, -4.97--4.06)), reduced the TNF-α ((MD), -1.23 (95% CrI, -1.38--1.08)) and IL-6 ((MD), -1.15 (95% CrI, -1.52--0.78)) levels. The 56 putative targets, top 10 proteins (MAPK1 (mitogen-activated protein kinase 1), MAPK8 (mitogen-activated protein kinase 8), RELA (transcription factor p65), NFKB1 (nuclear factor NF-kappa-B p105 subunit), JUN (transcription factor AP-1), SRC (proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase), TNF (tumor necrosis factor), HRAS (GTPase HRas), IL6 (interleukin-6), and APP (amyloid-beta A4 protein)), and possible pathways (Ret tyrosine kinase, IL2-mediated signaling events, CD4+/CD8+ T cell-related TCR signaling, p75(NTR)-mediated signaling, CXCR4-mediated signaling events, LPA receptor-mediated events, IL12-mediated signaling events, FAS (CD95) signaling pathway, and immune system) of Xuebinjing's action on ARDS were obtained. The molecular docking results showed that all the six components of Xuebinjing docked with TNF-α, and two components docked with IL-6 got the binding energies lower than -5. Conclusion Our results recommended Xuebijing treatment for patients with ARDS. Xuebijing has therapeutic effects on ARDS patients partly by regulating the immune cell/cytokine pathways and thus inhibiting the cytokine storm. TNF-α is the cytokine both directly and indirectly inhibited by Xuebijing, and IL-6 is the cytokine mainly indirectly inhibited by Xuebijing.

Abstract
PURPOSE We investigated the impact of delirium on illness severity, psychological state, and memory in acute respiratory distress syndrome patients with very long ICU stay. MATERIALS AND METHODS Prospective cohort study in the medical-surgical ICUs of 2 teaching hospitals. Very long ICU stay (>75days) and prolonged delirium (≥40days) thresholds were determined by ROC analysis. Subjects were ≥18years, full-code, and provided informed consent. Illness severity was assessed using Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation IV, Simplified Acute Physiology Score-3, and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment scores. Psychological impact was assessed using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, Impact of Event Scale-Revised, and the 14-question Post-Traumatic Stress Syndrome (PTSS-14). Memory was assessed using the ICU Memory Tool survey. RESULTS 181 subjects were included. Illness severity did not correlate with delirium duration. On logistic regression, only PTSS-14<49 correlated with delirium (p=0.001; 95% CI 1.011, 1.041). 49% remembered their ICU stay clearly. 47% had delusional memories, 50% reported intrusive memories, and 44% reported unexplained feelings of panic or apprehension. CONCLUSION Delirium was associated with memory impairment and PTSS-14 scores suggestive of PTSD, but not illness severity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute lung injury and respiratory distress syndrome is characterized by uncontrolled inflammation of the lungs after a severe inflammatory stimulus. We have previously demonstrated an ameliorated syndrome and improved survival in mice with early administration of valproic acid (VPA), a broad-spectrum histone deacetylase inhibitor, while studies in humans have shown no benefit when anti-inflammatories are administered late. The current study tested the hypothesis that early treatment would improve outcomes in our gram-negative pneumonia-induced acute lung injury. MATERIALS AND METHODS Mice (C57BL/6) had 50 × 106 Escherichia coli (strain 19,138) instilled endotracheally and VPA (250 mg/kg) administered intraperitoneally 3, 4, 6, and 9 h (n = 12/group) later. Six hours after VPA administration, the animals were sacrificed, and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor, neutrophils and macrophages as well as the E coli colony-forming units were quantified. Plasma IL-6 was also measured. A separate group of mice (n = 12/group) were followed prospectively for 7 days to assess survival. RESULTS BAL IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor as well as plasma IL-6 were significantly lower in the animals administered VPA within 3 h (P < 0.05) but not when administered later (4, 6, 9 h). There was no difference in the BAL E coli colony-forming units, macrophage, or neutrophil numbers at any time point. Survival improved only when VPA was administered within 3 h. CONCLUSIONS A narrow therapeutic window exists in this murine model of gram-negative pneumonia-induced acute lung injury and likely explains the lack of response in studies with late administration of anti-inflammatory therapies in clinical studies.

Abstract
Background: While a good deal of research on characteristic the different characteristics between surviving and dying patient with ARDS has been conducted globally, such research is scarce in developing countries. This study aimed to obtain clinical profile of ARDS survivors during hospitalization.Methods: This was a prospective, observational study conducted at a tertiary hospital in Jakarta from October 2015 to April 2016. Primary data was collected from ARDS patients based on Berlin Definition admitted to emergency room, ICU, HCU, ICCU, and all other wards. The patients were followed until they discharged. We only included survivors on the analysis. Descriptive analysis was done using SPSS 21.0.Results: A total of 43 patients were survived during study period. The majority were below 65 years of age (69.8%) and were male (53.5%). ARDS was mainly mild in severity (62.8%) and early onset (55.8%). Sepsis was the most common causes of ARDS (97.7%). Most of the patients had comorbidities (74.4%). Majority of the patients had APACHE II score <20 (77.3%) with mean 15.6±4.8. The mean of albumin was 2.9±0.6 and the median of procalcitonin was 3 (0.1-252.3.Conclusion: The clinical profile of ARDS survivors in our study were mostly similar with other studies conducted in developed and other developing countries.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop a screening tool to identify elderly patients at the end of life and quantify the risk of death in hospital or soon after discharge for to minimise prognostic uncertainty and avoid potentially harmful and futile treatments. DESIGN Narrative literature review of definitions, tools and measurements that could be combined into a screening tool based on routinely available or obtainable data at the point of care to identify elderly patients who are unavoidably dying at the time of admission or at risk of dying during hospitalisation. MAIN MEASUREMENTS Variables and thresholds proposed for the Criteria for Screening and Triaging to Appropriate aLternative care (CriSTAL screening tool) were adopted from existing scales and published research findings showing association with either in-hospital, 30-day or 3-month mortality. RESULTS Eighteen predictor instruments and their variants were examined. The final items for the new CriSTAL screening tool included: age ≥65; meeting ≥2 deterioration criteria; an index of frailty with ≥2 criteria; early warning score >4; presence of ≥1 selected comorbidities; nursing home placement; evidence of cognitive impairment; prior emergency hospitalisation or intensive care unit readmission in the past year; abnormal ECG; and proteinuria. CONCLUSIONS An unambiguous checklist may assist clinicians in reducing uncertainty patients who are likely to die within the next 3 months and help initiate transparent conversations with families and patients about end-of-life care. Retrospective chart review and prospective validation will be undertaken to optimise the number of prognostic items for easy administration and enhanced generalisability. Development of an evidence-based tool for defining and identifying the dying patient in hospital: CriSTAL.
