ABCA3 Gene and RDS in Late Preterm and Term Infants

Respiratory Distress SyndromeNewborn

Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) is the most common respiratory cause of mortality and morbidity in very preterm infants, but it also could be seen in late preterm and term infants. Some genetic mechanisms were involved in the pathogenesis of RDS in late preterm and term infants. ATP-binding cassette transporter A3 (ABCA3) is essential for the production of pulmonary surfactant, whose mutation is the most common monogenetic cause of RDS in newborns. It also takes a vital role on unexplained RDS (URDS) in late preterm and term infants. Some previous studies showed that URDS with homozygous or compound heterozygous ABCA3 mutations had high mortality, while different mutation types could lead to different outcomes. However, most of the study focused on URDS with ABCA3 gene mutations, and there is no evidence that URDS without confirmed gene mutations have relatively better or worse outcomes. Furthermore, all the population in previous study are non-Asian races, which indicated that all the study conclusion is not applicable in Asia. Based on the next-generation sequencing technology, exome sequencing has been widely used in the clinic. In our neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), a clinic exome sequencing was usually performed in infants with fatal URDS. The present study was designed to compare the URDS with ABCA3 gene mutations with those without confirmed gene mutations and to establish the relationship between various ABCA3 gene mutations and variant RDS severity and outcomes.

The Role of Morphological Phenotype in ARDS

Respiratory Distress SyndromeAdult

Although most of the information focuses on understanding how the ventilator produces lung damage, the pulmonary factors that predispose to ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) have been less studied. Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) can adopt different morphological phenotypes, with its own clinical and mechanical characteristics. This morphological phenotypes may favor the development of VILI for same ventilatory strategy

SARS-CoV InfectionAcute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

There are several clinical presentations of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Among the severe forms, pulmonary involvement with respiratory failure is common. Although severe lung involvement with SARS-CoV-2 meets the Berlin criteria for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), it differs from classic ARDS in that compliance (reflecting distensibility of the lung parenchyma) is frequently preserved. If the interest of Electrical Impedance Tomography has been demonstrated in classical ARDS, this is not the case in ARDS with COVID-19. However, the use of this technique in this particular patient population would make it possible to distinguish patients with severe hypoxemia linked to derecruitment from those without derecruitment, in whom hypoxemia is more likely to be linked to the loss of hypoxic vasoconstriction.

Comparison of ARDS COVID-19 (WHO) vs ARDS Influenza in the ICU

ARDSCOVID-19 Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome1 more

Since the beginning of the SARS CoV 2 pandemia, the SARS CoV 2 was frequently compared with the seasonal influenza virus. However, few studies compared patients presenting acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) induced by these viruses, with results being discordant. Our study means to compare mortality and morbidity of patients hospitalized in an intensive care unit (ICU) with ARDS induced by SARS CoV-2 and seasonal influenza.

Cognitive Functions After COVID-19

COVID-19 Acute Respiratory Distress SyndromeCognitive Decline

This study was aimed to evaluate the post-infection cognitive functions of adult individuals with COVID-19. 50 individuals with COVID-19 and 50 healthy control groups were included in the study. Cognitive functions of individuals with COVID19 compared with healthy individuals.

Prono Position and Mechanical Power

Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

The primary objective of the study is to compare the mechanical power applied to the respiratory system in patient with acute respiratory distress syndrome in supine positioning and after the implementation of prone positioning while mantaining the same ventilatory setting. The secondary objetive of the study is to compare the mechanical power applied to the respiratory system in patient with acute respiratory distress syndrome in supine positioning and after the implementation of prone positioning and adjusting an individualized ventilatory setting.

Prone Position Improves End-Expiratory Lung Volumes in COVID-19 Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome...

Acute Respiratory Distress SyndromeCoronavirus2 more

Covid-19 associated Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) may present with profound hypoxemia not fully explained with pulmonary infiltrates. Accordingly, how prone positioning improves oxygenation in these patients is not fully known. The investigators conducted a study among patients with severe Covid-19 ARDS receiving prone position for at least 16 hours. End Expiratory Lung Volume (EELV) was measured with Nitrogen wash-in/wash-out technique before (Supine Position 1- SP1), during (Prone Position - PP) and after (Supine Position 2 - SP2) prone positioning.

Ultrasound Grayscale Analysis in ARDS covid19

Muscular DiseasesCOVID-19 Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Recent evidence regarding the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID19) is growing in describing the characteristics of this disease, with main focus on lung morphology. Few data are available regarding the peripheral and respiratory muscular characteristics. Using a ultrasound greyscale analysis, It Is possibile to evaluated the muscle quality. The hypothesis of this studi is that a combined assessment of respiratory (i.e., intercostal and diaphragm) and peripheral (i.e., quadriceps) muscles quantity (as measured by thickness) and quality (as assessed by greyscale analysis), would reflect the severity of illness. Thus,the aims of this study are to assess if the quality characteristics of parasternal intercostal, diaphragm and quadriceps muscles of ICU COVID19 patients influenced the outcomes and are correlated with other variables, such as fluid or protein balance, or indexes of inflammation
