Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal blood glucose (BG) level for patients with cardiogenic shock in the intensive care unit (ICU) remains unclear. Studies have found that both excessively high and low BG levels contribute to adverse cardiovascular events. Our study aims to investigate the optimal BG level for critically ill patients with cardiogenic shock and evaluate the effects of optimal BG on the prognosis of patients. METHODS A total of 2013 patients with cardiogenic shock obtained from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC) IV database were included in the final cohort for our retrospective observational study for data analysis. The exposure was time-weighted average BG (TWA-BG), which was calculated by the time-series BG records and corresponding time stamps of patients with cardiogenic shock during their stay in the ICU. The cut-off value of TWA-BG was identified by the restricted cubic spline curve and included patients were categorized into three groups: low TWA-BG group (TWA-BG ≤ 104 mg/dl), optimal TWA-BG group (104 < TWA-BG ≤ 138 mg/dl), and high TWA-BG group (TWA-BG > 138 mg/dl). The primary outcome was 28-day mortality, and the secondary outcomes were ICU and in-hospital mortality. We performed the log-rank test to detect whether there is a difference in mortality among different groups in the original cohort. Multiple distinct models were employed to validate the robustness of the results. RESULTS Our study revealed that the optimal BG level for critically ill patients with cardiogenic shock is 104-138 mg/dl. Compared to the optimal TWA-BG group, the low TWA-BG group (hazard ratio (HR): 1.67, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.19-2.33, p = 0.002) and high TWA-BG group (HR: 1.72, 95% CI: 1.46-2.03, p < 0.001) exhibited higher 28-day mortality. Similarly, the low TWA-BG group and high TWA-BG group demonstrated higher risks in terms of ICU mortality (low TWA-BG group: HR: 2.30, 95% CI: 1.40-3.79, p < 0.001; high TWA-BG group: HR: 1.77, 95% CI: 1.45-2.17, p < 0.001) and in-hospital mortality (low TWA-BG group: HR: 1.73, 95% CI: 1.19-2.51, p = 0.001; high TWA-BG group: HR: 1.64, 95% CI: 1.38-1.95, p < 0.001). Sensitivity analysis conducted through propensity score matching and the subgroup analysis further substantiated the robustness of the results. CONCLUSION The optimal BG level for patients with cardiogenic shock is 104-138 mg/dl. BG levels below 104 mg/dl and above 138 mg/dl were associated with a less favorable prognosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Although the use of osimertinib can significantly improve the survival time of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) patients with epithelial growth factor receptor mutation, eventually drug resistance will limit the survival benefit of most patients. This study aimed to develop a novel prognostic predictive signature based on genes associated with osimertinib resistance. METHODS The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) associated with osimertinib resistance in LUAD were screened from Gene Expression Omnibus datasets and The Cancer Genome Atlas datasets. Multivariate cox regression was used to establish a prognostic signature, and then a nomogram was developed to predict the survival probability of LUAD patients. We used ROC curve and DCA curve to evaluate its clinical prediction accuracy and net benefit. In addition, the differentially expressed genes significantly associated with prognosis were selected for immune infiltration analysis and drug sensitivity analysis, and their roles in the progression of lung adenocarcinoma were verified by in vitro experiments. RESULTS Our evaluation results indicated that the new nomogram had higher clinical prediction accuracy and net benefit value than the TN nomogram. Further analysis showed that patients with low STRIP2 expression had a higher level of immune response, and may be more likely to benefit from immune checkpoint inhibitors and conventional antitumor drugs. This may help to select more precise and appropriate therapy for LUAD patients with osimertinib resistance. Furthermore, in vitro experiments showed that STRIP2 promoted the LUAD cells proliferation, migration and invasion. This further demonstrates the importance of this gene signature for prognostic prediction. CONCLUSION We developed a reliable prognostic model based on DEGs associated with osimertinib resistance and screened for biomarker that can predict the immune response in LUAD patients, which may help in the selection of treatment regimens after osimertinib resistance.

Abstract
BackgroundSeptic shock patients fundamentally require delicate vasoactive and inotropic agent administration, which could be quantitatively and objectively evaluated by the vasoactive–inotropic score (VIS); however, whether the dynamic trends of high-time-resolution VIS alter the clinical outcomes remains unclear. Thus, this study proposes the term VIS Reduction Rate (VRR) to generalise the tendency of dynamic VIS, to explore the association of VRR and mortality for patients with septic shock.MethodsWe applied dynamic and static VIS data to predict ICU mortality by two models: the long short-term memory (LSTM) deep learning model, and the extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), respectively. The specific target cohort was extracted from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV) database by the sophisticated structured query language (SQL). Enrolled patients were divided into four groups by VRR value: ≥50%, 0 ~ 50%, −50% ~ 0, and < −50%. Statistical approaches included pairwise propensity score matching (PSM), Cox proportional hazards regression, and two doubly robust estimation models to ensure the robustness of the results. The primary and secondary outcomes were ICU mortality and in-hospital mortality, respectively.ResultsVRR simplifies the dosing trends of vasoactive and inotropic agents represented by dynamic VIS data while requiring fewer data. In total, 8,887 septic shock patients were included. Compared with the VRR ≥50% group, the 0 ~ 50%, −50% ~ 0, and < −50% groups had significantly higher ICU mortality [hazard ratio (HR) 1.32, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.17–1.50, p < 0.001; HR 1.79, 95% CI 1.44–2.22, p < 0.001; HR 2.07, 95% CI 1.61–2.66, p < 0.001, respectively] and in-hospital mortality [HR 1.43, 95% CI 1.28–1.60, p < 0.001; HR 1.75, 95% CI 1.45–2.11, p < 0.001; HR 2.00, 95% CI 1.61–2.49, p < 0.001, respectively]. Similar findings were observed in two doubly robust estimation models.ConclusionThe trends of dynamic VIS in ICU might help intensivists to stratify the prognosis of adult patients with septic shock. A lower decline of VIS was remarkably associated with higher ICU and in-hospital mortality among septic shock patients receiving vasoactive–inotropic therapy for more than 24 h.

Abstract
Levosimendan and dobutamine are extensively used to treat sepsis-associated cardiovascular failure in ICU. Nevertheless, the role and mechanism of levosimendan in patients with sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy remains unclear. Moreover, previous studies on whether levosimendan is superior to dobutamine are still controversial. More importantly, these studies did not take changes (before-after comparison to the baseline) in quantitative parameters such as ejection fraction into account with the baseline level. Here, we aimed to determine the pros and cons of the two medicines by assessing the changes in cardiac function and blood lactate, mortality, with the standardized mean difference used as a summary statistic. Relevant studies were obtained by a thorough and disciplined literature search in several notable academic databases, including Google Scholar, PubMed, Cochrane Library and Embase until November 2020. Outcomes included changes in cardiac function, lactic acid, mortality and length of hospital stay. A total of 6 randomized controlled trials were included in this study, including 192 patients. Compared with dobutamine, patients treated with levosimendan had a greater improvement of cardiac index (ΔCI) (random effects, SMD = 0.90 [0.20,1.60]; I2 = 76%, P < 0.01) and left ventricular stroke work index (ΔLVSWI) (random effects, SMD = 1.56 [0.90,2.21]; I2 = 65%, P = 0.04), a significant decrease of blood lactate (Δblood lactate) (random effects, MD = - 0.79 [- 1.33, - 0.25]; I2 = 68%, P < 0.01) at 24-h after drug intervention, respectively. There was no significant difference between levosimendan and dobutamine on all-cause mortality in ICU (fixed effect, OR = 0.72 [0.39,1.33]; I2 = 0%, P = 0.99). We combine effect sizes related to different measurement parameters to evaluate cardiac function, which implied that septic patients with myocardial dysfunction might have a better improvement of cardiac function by levosimendan than dobutamine (random effects, SMD = 1.05 [0.69,1.41]; I2 = 67%, P < 0.01). This study suggested a significant improvement of CI, LVSWI, and decrease of blood lactate in septic patients with myocardial dysfunction in ICU after 24-h administration of levosimendan than dobutamine. However, the administration of levosimendan has neither an impact on mortality nor LVEF. Septic patients with myocardial dysfunction may partly benefit from levosimendan than dobutamine, mainly embodied in cardiac function improvement.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sepsis-induced myopathy (SIM) is a complication of sepsis that results in prolonged mechanical ventilation, long-term functional disability, and increased patient mortality. This study aimed to use bioinformatics analysis to identify hub genes and molecular pathways involved in SIM, to identify potential diagnostic or therapeutic biomarkers. MATERIAL AND METHODS The Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database was used to acquire the GSE13205 expression profile. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in cases of SIM and healthy controls, and the Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis were performed using the limma R/Bioconductor software package and clusterProfiler package in R, respectively. The protein-protein interaction (PPI) network data of DEGs was retrieved using the STRING database and analyzed using the Molecular Complex Detection (MCODE) Cytoscape software plugin. RESULTS A total of 196 DEGs were obtained in SIM samples compared with healthy samples, including 93 upregulated genes. The DEGs were significantly upregulated in mineral absorption, and the interleukin-17 (IL-17) signaling pathway and 103 down-regulated genes were associated with control of the bile secretion signaling pathway. A protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed with 106 nodes and 192 edges. The top two important clusters were selected from the PPI by MCODE analysis. There were 16 hub genes with a high degree of connectivity in the PPI network that were selected, including heme oxygenase 1 (HMOX1), nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate quinone dehydrogenase 1 (NQO1), and metallothionein (MT)-1E. CONCLUSIONS Bioinformatics network analysis identified key hub genes and molecular mechanisms in SIM.
