Extremes of Interferon-Stimulated Gene Expression Associate with Worse Outcomes in the Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome.

ABSTRACT: Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) severity may be influenced by heterogeneity of neutrophil activation. Interferon-stimulated genes (ISG) are a broad gene family induced by Type I interferons, often as a response to viral infections, which evokes extensive immunomodulation. We tested the hypothesis that over- or under-expression of immunomodulatory ISG by neutrophils is associated with worse clinical outcomes in patients with ARDS. Genome-wide transcriptional profiles of circulating neutrophils isolated from patients with sepsis-induced ARDS (n = 31) and healthy controls (n = 19) were used to characterize ISG expression. Hierarchical clustering of expression identified 3 distinct subject groups with Low, Mid and High ISG expression. ISG accounting for the greatest variability in expression were identified (MX1, IFIT1, and ISG15) and used to analyze a prospective cohort at the Colorado ARDS Network site. One hundred twenty ARDS patients from four urban hospitals were enrolled within 72 hours of initiation of mechanical ventilation. Circulating neutrophils were isolated from patients and expression of ISG determined by PCR. Samples were stratified by standard deviation from the mean into High (n = 21), Mid, (n = 82) or Low (n = 17) ISG expression. Clinical outcomes were compared between patients with High or Low ISG expression to those with Mid-range expression. At enrollment, there were no differences in age, gender, co-existing medical conditions, or type of physiologic injury between cohorts. After adjusting for age, race, gender and BMI, patients with either High or Low ISG expression had significantly worse clinical outcomes than those in the Mid for number of 28-day ventilator- and ICU-free days (P = 0.0006 and 0.0004), as well as 90-day mortality and 90-day home with unassisted breathing (P = 0.02 and 0.004). These findings suggest extremes of ISG expression by circulating neutrophils from ARDS patients recovered early in the syndrome are associated with poorer clinical outcomes.

Project description:OBJECTIVES:To determine whether weight extremes impact clinical outcomes in pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome. DESIGN:Post hoc analysis of a cohort created by combining five multicenter pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome studies. SETTING:Forty-three academic PICUs worldwide. PATIENTS:A total of 711 subjects prospectively diagnosed with pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome. INTERVENTION:Subjects more than 2 years were included and categorized by Center for Disease Control and Prevention body mass index z score criteria: underweight (< -1.89), normal weight (-1.89 to +1.04), overweight (+1.05 to +1.64), and obese (? +1.65). Subjects were stratified by direct versus indirect lung injury leading to pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality. In survivors, secondary analyses included duration of mechanical ventilation and ICU length of stay. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS:A total of 331 patients met inclusion criteria; 12% were underweight, 50% normal weight, 11% overweight, and 27% obese. Overall mortality was 20%. By multivariate analysis, body mass index category was independently associated with mortality (p = 0.004). When stratified by lung injury type, there was no mortality difference between body mass index groups with direct lung injury; however, in the indirect lung injury group, the odds of mortality in the obese were significantly lower than normal weight subjects (odds ratio, 0.11; 95% CI, 0.02-0.84). Survivors with direct lung injury had no difference in the duration of mechanical ventilation or ICU length of stay; however, those with indirect lung injury, the overweight required longer duration of mechanical ventilation than other groups (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS:These data support the obesity paradox in pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome. Obese children with indirect lung injury pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome have a lower risk of mortality. Importantly, among survivors, the overweight with indirect lung injury requires longer duration of mechanical ventilation. Our data require prospective validation to further elucidate the pathobiology of this phenomenon.

Project description:ObjectivesTo test whether plasma interleukin-1 receptor antagonist or variants within the gene encoding for interleukin-1ra (IL1RN), or proteins involved in regulating interleukin-1β levels or interleukin-1β response, are associated with pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome or outcomes in mechanically ventilated children with parenchymal lung disease.DesignProspective cohort study.SettingTwenty-two PICUs participating in the multisite clinical trial, Randomized Evaluation of Sedation Titration for Respiratory Failure (U01 HL086622).SubjectsChildren 2 weeks to 17 years old treated with invasive mechanical ventilation for acute airways and/or parenchymal lung disease.Measurements and main resultsThree-hundred seventy-eight of 549 patients had pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome; DNA and plasma were obtained from 523 of 549 and 480 of 549 patients, respectively. Plasma interleukin-1ra was highest on the day of intubation (day 0) and decreased over the subsequent 3 days (p < 0.0001). Interleukin-1ra level was higher in patients with pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome than those without pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (p < 0.0001). Multivariable regression analysis of data across all days demonstrated a significant association of interleukin-1ra (odds ratio, 1.30; 95% CI, 1.10-1.52; p = 0.002) and day (p < 0.05) with pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome, independent of age and Pediatric Risk of Mortality-III score. Analysis on individual days indicated that plasma interleukin-1ra levels were associated with pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome on days 0 and 2, independent of age and Pediatric Risk of Mortality-III score (p = 0.04 and 0.003, respectively), however did not quite reach significance on days 1 and 3 (p = 0.06 and 0.07, respectively). Interleukin-1ra was independently associated with mortality on day 1 (p = 0.02). Interleukin-1ra also correlated with length of mechanical ventilation, measures of oxygenation, and PICU length of stay. No genetic variants were associated with pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome.ConclusionsPlasma interleukin-1ra is associated with pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome, PICU length of stay, length of mechanical ventilation, and mortality in children with acute respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation.

Project description:OBJECTIVES:The prevalence and importance of early right ventricular dysfunction and pulmonary hypertension in pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome are unknown. We aimed to describe the prevalence of right ventricular dysfunction and pulmonary hypertension within 24 hours of pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome diagnosis and their associations with outcomes. DESIGN:Retrospective, single-center cohort study. SETTING:Tertiary care, university-affiliated PICU. PATIENTS:Children who had echocardiograms performed within 24 hours of pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome diagnosis. INTERVENTIONS:None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS:Between July 1, 2012, and June 30, 2016, 103 children met inclusion criteria. Echocardiograms were analyzed using established indices of right ventricular and left ventricular systolic function and for evidence of pulmonary hypertension. Echocardiographic abnormalities were common: 26% had low right ventricular fractional area change, 65% had low tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion, 30% had low left ventricular fractional shortening, and 21% had evidence of pulmonary hypertension. Abnormal right ventricular global longitudinal strain and abnormal right ventricular free wall strain were present in 35% and 40% of patients, respectively. No echocardiographic variables differed between or across pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome severity. In multivariable analyses, right ventricular global longitudinal strain was independently associated with PICU mortality (odds ratio, 3.57 [1.33-9.60]; p = 0.01), whereas right ventricular global longitudinal strain, right ventricular free wall strain, and the presence of pulmonary hypertension were independently associated with lower probability of extubation (subdistribution hazard ratio, 0.46 [0.26-0.83], p = 0.01; subdistribution hazard ratio, 0.58 [0.35-0.98], p = 0.04; and subdistribution hazard ratio, 0.49 [0.26-0.92], p = 0.03, respectively). CONCLUSIONS:Early ventricular dysfunction and pulmonary hypertension were detectable, prevalent, and independent of lung injury severity in children with pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome. Right ventricular dysfunction was associated with PICU mortality, whereas right ventricular dysfunction and pulmonary hypertension were associated with lower probability of extubation.
