Distinct Molecular Phenotypes of Direct vs Indirect ARDS in Single-Center and Multicenter Studies

Abstract: and the NIH NHLBI ARDS NetworkBACKGROUND: ARDS is a heterogeneous syndrome that encompasses lung injury from both direct and indirect sources. Direct ARDS (pneumonia, aspiration) has been hypothesized to cause more severe lung epithelial injury than indirect ARDS (eg, nonpulmonary sepsis); however, this hypothesis has not been well studied in humans.

“…We therefore included these biomarkers in the current analysis. Four biomarkers were measured previously for other studies (IL-6, IL-8, surfactant protein D, and von Willebrand factor) (12,13); the other four were measured for this analysis (intercellular adhesion molecule-1, protein C, soluble tumor necrosis factor receptor-1 [sTNFr1], and plasminogen activator inhibitor 1). We also included two previously measured ARDS biomarkers, angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2) and the receptor for advanced glycation end-products (RAGE), which were not available for our prior study (12,13).…”

“…Larger studies are warranted and should consider subgroups matched according to severity of illness and shock to further evaluate the possibility that mechanisms of ARDS may differ among patients with variable manifestations of nonpulmonary organ failure. Further study in gene expression programs is likely to increase understanding to subtypes of complex illnesses like ARDS (13,15). Recent discoveries in sepsis demonstrate how gene expression subphenotypes can be identified and applied in clinical settings (72).…”

“…For example a patient with a WBC of 18,000 cells/l may have increased expression of some genes simply due to an increase in the number of neutrophils rather than a functional upregulation of the neutrophil itself. Since pulmonary and nonpulmonary sepsis may lead to ARDS through independent mechanisms, we accounted for indirect (nonpulmonary) vs. direct (pneumonia or aspiration) risk factors for lung injury in the analysis (15).…”

“…In panels of biomarkers, Ang-2 has been reported as a relevant marker for diagnosis and/or mortality (32). In addition, Ang-2 levels have been found to be an indicator of non-pulmonary ARDS (41).…”
