Zimmermann R, Roeder F, Ruppert C, Smith BJ, Knudsen L. Low-volume ventilation of preinjured lungs degrades lung function via stress concentration and progressive alveolar collapse. Am J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol 2024; 327:L19-L39. [PMID: 38712429 DOI: 10.1152/ajplung.00323.2023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2023] [Revised: 03/27/2024] [Accepted: 04/22/2024] [Indexed: 05/08/2024] Open
Abstract
Mechanical ventilation can cause ventilation-induced lung injury (VILI). The concept of stress concentrations suggests that surfactant dysfunction-induced microatelectases might impose injurious stresses on adjacent, open alveoli and function as germinal centers for injury propagation. The aim of the present study was to quantify the histopathological pattern of VILI progression and to test the hypothesis that injury progresses at the interface between microatelectases and ventilated lung parenchyma during low-positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) ventilation. Bleomycin was used to induce lung injury with microatelectases in rats. Lungs were then mechanically ventilated for up to 6 h at PEEP = 1 cmH2O and compared with bleomycin-treated group ventilated protectively with PEEP = 5 cmH2O to minimize microatelectases. Lung mechanics were measured during ventilation. Afterward, lungs were fixed at end-inspiration or end-expiration for design-based stereology. Before VILI, bleomycin challenge reduced the number of open alveoli [N(alvair,par)] by 29%. No differences between end-inspiration and end-expiration were observed. Collapsed alveoli clustered in areas with a radius of up to 56 µm. After PEEP = 5 cmH2O ventilation for 6 h, N(alvair,par) remained stable while PEEP = 1 cmH2O ventilation led to an additional loss of aerated alveoli by 26%, mainly due to collapse, with a small fraction partly edema filled. Alveolar loss strongly correlated to worsening of tissue elastance, quasistatic compliance, and inspiratory capacity. The radius of areas of collapsed alveoli increased to 94 µm, suggesting growth of the microatelectases. These data provide evidence that alveoli become unstable in neighborhood of microatelectases, which most likely occurs due to stress concentration-induced local vascular leak and surfactant dysfunction.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Low-volume mechanical ventilation in the presence of high surface tension-induced microatelectases leads to the degradation of lung mechanical function via the progressive loss of alveoli. Microatelectases grow at the interfaces of collapsed and open alveoli. Here, stress concentrations might cause injury and alveolar instability. Accumulation of small amounts of alveolar edema can be found in a fraction of partly collapsed alveoli but, in this model, alveolar flooding is not a major driver for degradation of lung mechanics.

[PMID: 38175266 DOI: 10.1007/s11033-023-08911-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2023] [Accepted: 11/26/2023] [Indexed: 01/05/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Mechanical Ventilation (MV) is an essential mechanism of life support in the clinic. It may also lead to ventilator-induced acute lung injury (VILI) due to local alveolar overstretching and/or repeated alveolar collapse. However, the pathogenesis of VILI is not completely understood, and its occurrence and development may be related to physiological processes such as the inflammatory response, oxidative stress, and apoptosis. Some studies have found that the the apelin/APJ axis is an endogenous antagonistic mechanism activated during acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS), that can counteract the injury response and prevent uncontrolled lung injury. To indicate that apelin-13 plays a protective role in VILI, an animal model of VILI was established in this study to explore whether apelin-13 can alleviate VILI in rats by inhibiting inflammation, apoptosis and oxidative stress. METHODS SD rats were divided into four groups: control, high tidal volume, high tidal volume + normal saline and high tidal volume + apelin-13. After tracheotomy, the rats in control maintained spontaneous breathing, and the other rats were connected to the small animal ventilator for 4 h to establish the rat VILI model. The mRNA expression of apelin was measured by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR), immunofluorescence and Western blotting(WB) were used to detect the expression level of APJ, and WB was used to detect the expression of the apoptotic proteins Bax and bcl-2. The degree of lung injury was evaluated by pathological staining of lung tissue,W/D ratio, and BALF total protein concentration. The expression of inflammatory factors(IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α) in alveolar lavage fluid was measured using ELISA. The activities of MPO and cat and the content of MDA, an oxidative product, in lung tissue were measured to evaluate the degree of oxidative stress in the lung. RESULTS After treatment with apelin-13, the apelin/APJ axis in the lung tissue of VILI model rats was activated, and the effect was further enhanced. The pathological damage of lung tissue was alleviated, the expression of the antiapoptotic protein Bcl-2 and the proapoptotic protein Bax was reversed, and the levels of the inflammatory cytokines IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α levels were all decreased. MPO activity and MDA content decreased, while CAT activity increased. CONCLUSION The apelin/apj axis is activated in VILI. Overexpression of apelin-13 further plays a protective role in VILI, mainly by including reducing pathological damage, the inflammatory response, apoptosis and antioxidant stress in lung tissue, thus delaying the occurrence and development of VILI.

Biomed Pharmacother 2023; 165:115237. [PMID: 37516020 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2023.115237] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/10/2023] [Revised: 07/22/2023] [Accepted: 07/25/2023] [Indexed: 07/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Mechanical ventilation (MV) may negatively affect the lungs and cause the release of inflammatory mediators, resulting in extra-pulmonary organ dysfunction. Studies have revealed systemically elevated levels of proinflammatory cytokines in animal models of ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI); however, whether these cytokines have an effect on gut injury and the mechanisms involved remain unknown. In this study, VILI was generated in mice with high tidal volume mechanical ventilation (20 ml/kg). Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and IL-6 concentrations in serum and gut measured by ELISA showed significant elevation in the VILI mice. Significant increases in gut injury and PANoptosis were observed in the VILI mice, which were positively correlated with the serum levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6. The VILI mice displayed intestinal barrier defects, decreased expressions of occludin and zonula occludin-1 (ZO-1), and increased expression of claudin-2 and the activation of myosin light chain (MLC). Importantly, intratracheal administration of Imp7 siRNA nanoparticle effectively inhibited cytokines production and protected mice from VILI-induced gut injury. These data provide evidence of systemic cytokines contributing to gut injury following VILI and highlight the possibility of targeting cytokines inhibition via Imp7 siRNA nanoparticle as a potential therapeutic intervention for alleviating gut injury following VILI.

Rbm20 ΔRRM Mice, Expressing a Titin Isoform with Lower Stiffness, Are Protected from Mechanical Ventilation-Induced Diaphragm Weakness. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms232415689.

Abstract
Diaphragm weakness frequently develops in mechanically ventilated critically ill patients and is associated with increased morbidity, including ventilator weaning failure, mortality, and health care costs. The mechanisms underlying diaphragm weakness are incompletely understood but may include the elastic properties of titin, a giant protein whose layout in the muscle's sarcomeres makes it an ideal candidate to sense ventilation-induced diaphragm unloading, resulting in downstream signaling through titin-binding proteins. In the current study, we investigated whether modulating titin stiffness affects the development of diaphragm weakness during mechanical ventilation. To this end, we ventilated genetically engineered mice with reduced titin stiffness (Rbm20ΔRRM), and robust (TtnΔIAjxn) or severely (TtnΔ112-158) increased titin stiffness for 8 h, and assessed diaphragm contractility and protein expression of titin-binding proteins. Mechanical ventilation reduced the maximum active tension of the diaphragm in WT, TtnΔIAjxn and TtnΔ112-158 mice. However, in Rbm20ΔRRM mice maximum active tension was preserved after ventilation. Analyses of titin binding proteins suggest that muscle ankyrin repeat proteins (MARPs) 1 and 2 may play a role in the adaptation of the diaphragm to mechanical ventilation, and the preservation of diaphragm contractility in Rbm20ΔRRM mice. Thus, Rbm20ΔRRM mice, expressing titin isoforms with lower stiffness, are protected from mechanical ventilation-induced diaphragm weakness, suggesting that titin elasticity may modulate the diaphragm's response to unloading during mechanical ventilation.

Abstract
By employing a reductionistic (but not simplistic) approach using an established invertebrate model system, the pond snail Lymnaea stagnalis, we investigated whether (1) lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation would cause a sickness state and impair cognitive function, and-if so-(2) would aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid-ASA) restore the impaired cognition. To test our hypotheses, we first determined if the injection of 25 mg (6.25 μg/mL) of Escherichia coli-derived LPS serotype O127:B8 altered homeostatic behavior, aerial respiration, and then determined if LPS altered memory formation when this behavior was operantly conditioned. Next, we determined if ASA altered the LPS-induced changes in both aerial respiration and cognitive functions. LPS induced a sickness state that increased aerial respiration and altered the ability of snails to form or recall long-term memory. ASA reverted the LPS-induced sickness state and thus allowed long-term memory both to be formed and recalled. We confirmed our hypotheses and provided the first evidence in an invertebrate model system that an injection of LPS results in a sickness state that obstructs learning and memory, and this impairment can be prevented by a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory.

Abstract
Background As one of the basic treatments performed in the intensive care unit, mechanical ventilation can cause ventilator-induced acute lung injury (VILI). The typical features of VILI are an uncontrolled inflammatory response and impaired lung barrier function; however, its pathogenesis is not fully understood, and c-Fos protein is activated under mechanical stress. c-Fos/activating protein-1 (AP-1) plays a role by binding to AP-1 within the promoter region, which promotes inflammation and apoptosis. T-5224 is a specific inhibitor of c-Fos/AP-1, that controls the gene expression of many proinflammatory cytokines. This study investigated whether T-5224 attenuates VILI in rats by inhibiting inflammation and apoptosis. Methods The SD rats were divided into six groups: a control group, low tidal volume group, high tidal volume group, DMSO group, T-5224 group (low concentration), and T-5224 group (high concentration). After 3 h, the pathological damage, c-Fos protein expression, inflammatory reaction and apoptosis degree of lung tissue in each group were detected. Results c-Fos protein expression was increased within the lung tissue of VILI rats, and the pathological damage degree, inflammatory reaction and apoptosis in the lung tissue of VILI rats were significantly increased; T-5224 inhibited c-Fos protein expression in lung tissues, and T-5224 inhibit the inflammatory reaction and apoptosis of lung tissue by regulating the Fas/Fasl pathway. Conclusions c-Fos is a regulatory factor during ventilator-induced acute lung injury, and the inhibition of its expression has a protective effect. Which is associated with the antiinflammatory and antiapoptotic effects of T-5224.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a major cause of patient mortality in intensive care units (ICUs) worldwide. Considering that no causative treatment but only symptomatic care is available, it is obvious that there is a high unmet medical need for a new therapeutic concept. One reason for a missing etiologic therapy strategy is the multifactorial origin of ARDS, which leads to a large heterogeneity of patients. This review summarizes the various kinds of ARDS onset with a special focus on the role of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which are generally linked to ARDS development and progression. Taking a closer look at the data which already have been established in mouse models, this review finally proposes the translation of these results on successful antioxidant use in a personalized approach to the ICU patient as a potential adjuvant to standard ARDS treatment.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation is an important part of medical care in intensive care units and operating rooms to support respiration. While it is a critical component of medical care, it is well known that mechanical ventilation itself can be injurious to the lungs. Despite a large number of clinical and preclinical studies that have been done so far, there still exists a gap of knowledge regarding how to ventilate patients mechanically without increasing lung injury. Here, we will review what we have learned so far from preclinical and clinical studies and consider how to use preclinical models of ventilation-induced lung injury that better recapitulate the clinical scenarios.

Abstract
Ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) is a serious acute injury to the lung tissue that can develop during mechanical ventilation of patients. Due to the mechanical strain of ventilation, damage can occur in the bronchiolar and alveolar epithelium resulting in a cascade of events that may be fatal to the patients. Patients requiring mechanical ventilation are often critically ill, which limits the possibility of obtaining patient samples, making VILI research challenging. In vitro models are very important for VILI research, but the complexity of the cellular interactions in multi-organ animals, necessitates in vivo studies where the mouse model is a common choice. However, the settings and duration of ventilation used to create VILI in mice vary greatly, causing uncertainty in interpretation and comparison of results. This review examines approaches to induce VILI in mouse models for the last 10 years, to our best knowledge, summarizing methods and key parameters presented across the studies. The results imply that a more standardized approach is warranted.

Abstract
Recently, numerous evidence has revealed that excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and mitochondrial disruption during acute lung injury (ALI) and its most severe form, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) will aggravate the inflammatory process. To identify whether antioxidation can be one of the treatment strategies during this progress, we chose mitoQ, a mitochondria-targeted antioxidant that was proved to be effective in reducing ROS generated in mitochondria, as a ROS scavenger to investigate the role of antioxidation in ALI. We demonstrated that overoxidation occurred during the process of ALI, which could be reduced by mitoQ. In the meantime, apoptosis of endothelial cells of ALI mice, accompanied by hyperpermeability of pulmonary vascular and impaired pulmonary function, was partially reversed following an intraperitoneal injection of mitoQ. Moreover, in in vitro study, lipopolysaccharides (LPS) induced excessive ROS production, mitochondrial dysfunction and apoptosis in human pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (HPMECs), which were rectified by mitoQ. To explore underlying mechanisms, we proceeded RNA-sequencing and found significantly upregulated expression of musculoaponeurotic fibrosarcoma F (MafF) in mitoQ treated group. Additionally, mitoQ inhibited the degradation and increased nuclear translocation of NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and upregulated its downstream antioxidant response elements (AREs), such as heme oxygenase (HO)-1 and NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase (NQO)-1. This effect was abolished by transfecting HPMECs with Nrf2 or Maff siRNA. In Nrf2 deficient mice, the protective effects of mitoQ on LPS model of ALI were largely vanished. Taken together, these results provide insights into how antioxidation exerts beneficial effects on ALI via maintaining mitochondrial hemostasis, inhibiting endothelial cells apoptosis, attenuating the endothelial disruption and regulating lung inflammation via Nrf2-MafF/ARE pathway.

Mechanical ventilation-induced alterations of intracellular surfactant pool and blood-gas barrier in healthy and pre-injured lungs. Histochem Cell Biol 2020; 155:183-202.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation triggers the manifestation of lung injury and pre-injured lungs are more susceptible. Ventilation-induced abnormalities of alveolar surfactant are involved in injury progression. The effects of mechanical ventilation on the surfactant system might be different in healthy compared to pre-injured lungs. In the present study, we investigated the effects of different positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) ventilations on the structure of the blood–gas barrier, the ultrastructure of alveolar epithelial type II (AE2) cells and the intracellular surfactant pool (= lamellar bodies, LB). Rats were randomized into bleomycin-pre-injured or healthy control groups. One day later, rats were either not ventilated, or ventilated with PEEP = 1 or 5 cmH2O and a tidal volume of 10 ml/kg bodyweight for 3 h. Left lungs were subjected to design-based stereology, right lungs to measurements of surfactant proteins (SP−) B and C expression. In pre-injured lungs without ventilation, the expression of SP-C was reduced by bleomycin; while, there were fewer and larger LB compared to healthy lungs. PEEP = 1 cmH2O ventilation of bleomycin-injured lungs was linked with the thickest blood–gas barrier due to increased septal interstitial volumes. In healthy lungs, increasing PEEP levels reduced mean AE2 cell size and volume of LB per AE2 cell; while in pre-injured lungs, volumes of AE2 cells and LB per cell remained stable across PEEPs. Instead, in pre-injured lungs, increasing PEEP levels increased the number and decreased the mean size of LB. In conclusion, mechanical ventilation-induced alterations in LB ultrastructure differ between healthy and pre-injured lungs. PEEP = 1 cmH2O but not PEEP = 5 cmH2O ventilation aggravated septal interstitial abnormalities after bleomycin challenge.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To elucidate the pathogenic role of leukotriene B4 (LTB4) in pulmonary hyper-permeability and inflammation induced by lung-protective mechanical ventilation (LPMV) in rabbits. METHODS Thirty-two healthy Japanese white rabbits were randomized into 4 groups for treatment with vehicle or bestatin (a leukotriene A4 hydrolase inhibitor that inhibits LTB4 production) administered intragastrically at the daily dose of 8 mg/kg for 5 days, followed by sham operation (group S and group BS, respectively, in which the rabbits were anesthetized only) or LPMV (group PM and group BPM, respectively, in which the rabbits received ventilation with 50% oxygen at a tidal volume of 8 mL/kg for 5 h). The concentrations of LTB4 and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) in the lung tissues were analyzed by ELISA. cAMP content, protein kinase A (PKA) protein expression and the Rap1-GTP protein to total Rap1 protein ratio were determined to assess the activities of cAMP/PKA and Rap1 signaling pathways. The lung injury was evaluated by assessing lung permeability index, lung wet/dry weight ratio, polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN) count in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), pulmonary myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity and lung histological scores. RESULTS None of the examined parameters differed significantly between group S and group BS. All the parameters with the exception of lung histological score increased significantly in group PM and group BPM as compared to those in group S (P < 0.05). Compared with those in PM group, the rabbits in group BPM showed significantly reduced LTB4 production in the lungs (P < 0.05), up-regulated cAMP/ PKA and Rap1 signaling pathway activities (P < 0.05), and alleviated lung hyper-permeability and inflammation (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS LPMV can induce LTB4 overproduction to down-regulate cAMP/PKA and Rap1 signaling pathways in the lungs of rabbits, which results in lung hyper-permeability and inflammation. Bestatin can inhibit LTB4 production in the lungs to protect against LPMV-induced lung hyper-permeability and inflammation.

Front Physiol 2020; 11:530485.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation of lungs suffering from microatelectases may trigger the development of acute lung injury (ALI). Direct lung injury by bleomycin results in surfactant dysfunction and microatelectases at day 1 while tissue elastance and oxygenation remain normal. Computational simulations of alveolar micromechanics 1-day post-bleomycin predict persisting microatelectases throughout the respiratory cycle and increased alveolar strain during low positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) ventilation. As such, we hypothesize that mechanical ventilation in presence of microatelectases, which occur at low but not at higher PEEP, aggravates and unmasks ALI in the bleomycin injury model. Rats were randomized and challenged with bleomycin (B) or not (H = healthy). One day after bleomycin instillation the animals were ventilated for 3 h with PEEP 1 (PEEP1) or 5 cmH2O (PEEP5) and a tidal volume of 10 ml/kg bodyweight. Tissue elastance was repetitively measured after a recruitment maneuver to investigate the degree of distal airspace instability. The right lung was subjected to bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), the left lung was fixed for design-based stereology at light- and electron microscopic level. Prior to mechanical ventilation, lung tissue elastance did not differ. During mechanical ventilation tissue elastance increased in bleomycin-injured lungs ventilated with PEEP = 1 cmH2O but remained stable in all other groups. Measurements at the conclusion of ventilation showed the largest time-dependent increase in tissue elastance after recruitment in B/PEEP1, indicating increased instability of distal airspaces. These lung mechanical findings correlated with BAL measurements including elevated BAL neutrophilic granulocytes as well as BAL protein and albumin in B/PEEP1. Moreover, the increased septal wall thickness and volume of peri-bronchiolar-vascular connective tissue in B/PEEP1 suggested aggravation of interstitial edema by ventilation in presence of microatelectases. At the electron microscopic level, the largest surface area of injured alveolar epithelial was observed in bleomycin-challenged lungs after PEEP = 1 cmH2O ventilation. After bleomycin treatment cellular markers of endoplasmic reticulum stress (p-Perk and p-EIF-2α) were positive within the septal wall and ventilation with PEEP = 1 cmH2O ventilation increased the surface area stained positively for p-EIF-2α. In conclusion, hidden microatelectases are linked with an increased pulmonary vulnerability for mechanical ventilation characterized by an aggravation of epithelial injury.

Abstract
Complex in vitro models of the tissue microenvironment, termed microphysiological systems, have enormous potential to transform the process of discovering drugs and disease mechanisms. Such a paradigm shift is urgently needed in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), an acute lung condition with no successful therapies and a 40% mortality rate. Here, we consider how microphysiological systems could improve understanding of biological mechanisms driving ARDS and ultimately improve the success of therapies in clinical trials. We first discuss how microphysiological systems could explain the biological mechanisms underlying the segregation of ARDS patients into two clinically distinct phenotypes. Then, we contend that ARDS-mimetic microphysiological systems should recapitulate three critical aspects of the distal airway microenvironment, namely, mechanical force, inflammation, and fibrosis, and we review models that incorporate each of these aspects. Finally, we recognize the substantial challenges associated with combining inflammation, fibrosis, and/or mechanical force in microphysiological systems. Nevertheless, complex in vitro models are a novel paradigm for studying ARDS, and they could ultimately improve patient care.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND GOAL OF THE STUDY Pulmonary inflammation, increased vascular permeability, and pulmonary edema, occur in response to primary pulmonary infections like pneumonia but are also evident in endotoxemia or sepsis. Mechanical ventilation augments pre-existing lung injury and inflammation resulting from exposure to microbial products. The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that low-tidal-volume prevent ventilation induced lung injury in sepsis. MATERIALS AND METHODS 10-12-week-old male C57BL/6N-mice received an intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection with equipotent dosages of LPS, 1668-thioate, 1612-thioate, or PBS. 120 min after injection, mice were randomized to low- (LV, 7 ± 1 ml/kg) or high-tidal-volume (HV, 25 ± 1 ml/kg) ventilation. Hemodynamic and ventilatory parameters were recorded and inflammatory markers were analyzed form BAL that was generated after 90 minute ventilation. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Arterial blood pressures declined during mechanical ventilation in all groups. pO2 decreased in LPS injected and CO2 increased in sham, LPS, and 1612-thioate administered mice at 45 min and in 1668-thioate injected mice after 90 minute LV ventilation compared to respective HV groups. BAL protein concentrations increased in HV ventilated and 1668- or 1612-thioat pre-treated mice. BAL TNF-α protein concentrations increased in both LPS- and 1668-thioate-injected and IL-1β protein concentrations only in LPS-injected and HV ventilated mice. Most notably, no increased protein concentrations were observed in any of the LV ventilated groups. CONCLUSION We conclude that low-tidal-volume ventilation may be a potential strategy for the prevention of ventilator induced lung injury in a murine model of systemic TLR agonist induced lung injury.

Abstract
Identifying safe ventilation patterns for patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome remains challenging because of the delicate balance between gas exchange and selection of ventilator settings to prevent further ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI). Accordingly, this work seeks to link ventilator settings to graded levels of VILI to identify injury cost functions that predict injury by using a computational model to process pressures and flows measured at the airway opening. Pressure-volume loops were acquired over the course of ~2 h of mechanical ventilation in four different groups of BALB/c mice. A cohort of these animals were subjected to an injurious bronchoalveolar lavage before ventilation. The data were analyzed with a single-compartment model that predicts recruitment/derecruitment and tissue distension at each time step in measured pressure-volume loops. We compared several injury cost functions to markers of VILI-induced blood-gas barrier disruption. Of the cost functions considered, we conclude that mechanical power dissipation and strain heterogeneity are the best at distinguishing between graded levels of injury and are good candidates for forecasting the development of VILI. NEW & NOTEWORTHY This work uses a predictive single-compartment model and injury cost functions to assess graded levels of mechanical ventilator-induced lung injury. The most promising measures include strain heterogeneity and mechanical power dissipation.
