Abstract
OBJECTIVES To review the literature for studies published in children on the pathobiology, severity, and risk stratification of pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS) with the intent of guiding current medical practice and identifying important areas for future research related to severity and risk stratification. DATA SOURCES Electronic searches of PubMed and Embase were conducted from 2013 to March 2022 by using a combination of medical subject heading terms and text words to capture the pathobiology, severity, and comorbidities of PARDS. STUDY SELECTION We included studies of critically ill patients with PARDS that related to the severity and risk stratification of PARDS using characteristics other than the oxygenation defect. Studies using animal models, adult only, and studies with 10 or fewer children were excluded from our review. DATA EXTRACTION Title/abstract review, full-text review, and data extraction using a standardized data collection form. DATA SYNTHESIS The Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation approach was used to identify and summarize relevant evidence and develop recommendations for clinical practice. There were 192 studies identified for full-text extraction to address the relevant Patient/Intervention/Comparator/Outcome questions. One clinical recommendation was generated related to the use of dead space fraction for risk stratification. In addition, six research statements were generated about the impact of age on acute respiratory distress syndrome pathobiology and outcomes, addressing PARDS heterogeneity using biomarkers to identify subphenotypes and endotypes, and use of standardized ventilator, physiologic, and nonpulmonary organ failure measurements for future research. CONCLUSIONS Based on an extensive literature review, we propose clinical management and research recommendations related to characterization and risk stratification of PARDS severity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transactive Response DNA Binding Protein 43 kDa (TDP-43) pathology is frequently found in cases with Alzheimer's disease (AD). TDP-43 pathology is associated with hippocampal atrophy and greater AD severity denoted by cognition and clinical representation. Current TDP-43 pathology studies are predominantly based on non-Hispanic White cohorts. OBJECTIVE We sought to evaluate the presence of TDP-43 pathology across ethnoracial groups utilizing the National Alzheimer's Coordinating Center; a database containing data from over 29 institutions across the United States. Cases (N = 1135: Hispanics/Latinos = 29, African Americans/Black Americans = 51, Asians/Asian Americans = 10, American Indians/Alaskan Natives = 2, non-Hispanic White = 1043) with intermediate/high AD having data on TDP-43 pathology in the amygdala, hippocampus, entorhinal cortex, and neocortex were included. METHODS TDP-43 pathology frequency in each neuroanatomic region among ethnoracial groups were compared using generalized linear mixed effects models with center as a random effect adjusting for age at death, education, and gender. RESULTS Although groups were imbalanced, there was no significant difference across ethnoracial groups based on TDP-43 pathology (p = 0.84). With respect to neuroanatomical regions evaluated, there were no significant differences across ethnoracial groups (p-values > 0.06). There were also no significant differences for age at death and gender ratios across ethnoracial groups based on TDP-43 pathology. Although not statistically significant, TDP-43 pathology was present less often in Hispanic/Latinos (34%) when compared to non-Hispanic Whites (46%). CONCLUSION While this is a preliminary evaluation, it highlights the need for diverse cohorts and on TDP-43 pathology research across ethnoracial groups. This is the first study to our knowledge having a focus on the neuroanatomical distribution of TDP-43 deposits in Hispanic/Latino decedents with AD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the streaks of severity, severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection is, in general, less frequent and severe in children than in adults. We searched for causal evidence of this mystery. DATA SOURCES An extensive search strategy was designed to identify papers on coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). We searched Ovid MEDLINE, PubMed, EMBASE databases, and Cochrane library and carried out a review on the causes of this dilemma. RESULTS Our searches produced 81 relevant articles. The review showed that children accounted for a lower percentage of reported cases, and they also experienced less severe illness courses. Some potential explanations, including the tendency to engage the upper airway, the different expression in both receptors of angiotensin-converting enzyme and renin-angiotensin system, a less vigorous immune response, the lower levels of interleukin (IL)-6, IL-10, myeloperoxidase, and P-selectin and a higher intracellular adhesion molecule-1, a potential protective role of lymphocytes, and also lung infiltrations might have protective roles in the immune system-respiratory tract interactions. Finally, what have shed light on this under representation comes from two studies that revealed high-titer immunoglobulin-G antibodies against respiratory syncytial virus and mycoplasma pneumonia, may carry out cross-protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection, just like what suggested about the vaccines. CONCLUSIONS These results require an in-depth look. Properties of the immune system including a less vigorous adaptive system beside a preliminary potent innate response and a trained immunity alongside a healthier respiratory system, and their interactions, might protect children against SARS-CoV-2 infection. However, further studies are needed to explore other possible causes of this enigma.

Abstract
The risk factors for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) have been a focus for clinicians and researchers from the original description in 1967 to the most recent Pediatric Acute Lung Injury Consensus Conference (PALICC). Indeed, there are many comorbidities and risk factors that predispose a patient to develop pediatric ARDS (PARDS) including, but not limited to, immunodeficiency, weight extremes, genetics, and environmental factors. These are particularly important to investigators because accurate prediction of which patients are at greatest risk of PARDS – both the development of PARDS and worse clinical outcomes after PARDS has been established – is key to identifying the next generation of diagnostic techniques and preventative strategies. In addition to those risk factors, there are specific disease processes that lead to the development of PARDS, often divided into direct or pulmonary insults and indirect or extrapulmonary insults. Finally, beyond the clinically visible risk factors, researchers are attempting to identify novel biomarkers to uncover hidden phenotypes of PARDS and enrich the prognostication and prediction of patient outcomes. This chapter delves into each of these concepts.
