    Abstract Background and objective: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a severe, life-threatening medical condition characterized by poor oxygenation due to non-compliant lungs secondary diffuse alveolar damage. Encouragingly, the incidence of ARDS has declined steadily recently, attributed mainly to implementation of keystone guidelines and continuous research efforts. Mechanical ventilation is the cornerstone of supportive care for ARDS patients. This review aims to consolidate the current knowledge on pneumothorax (PNX) and pneumomediastinum (PMD) and to enhance the understanding of the readers. The objectives are to (I) explore the etiology and risk factors of PNX and PMD, (II) discuss the various diagnostic modalities available, (III) evaluate management options, and (IV) recent advancements.
    Methods: A search of the literature was conducted using PubMed, MEDLINE, and Google Scholar for relevant articles pertaining to PNX and PMD in ARDS population. The clinical presentation, diagnostic and management strategies of PNX, PMD, and ARDS were summarized, and all authors reviewed the selection and decide which studies to include.
    Key content and findings: The adoption of lung-protective ventilation strategies, based on the review of literature from the recent years, shows that it has played a significant role in reducing the occurrence of barotrauma, such as PNX and PMD. However, PNX and PMD remains to be a challenging complication to manage. With a specific focus on PNX and PMD, this review provides valuable insights into effectively managing and understanding these critical complications among ARDS patients.
    Conclusions: ARDS, with its evolving definition, continues to pose a life-threatening threat. Despite the widespread adoption of lung-protective ventilation strategies, PNX and PMD present persistent challenges in management. Further research is imperative to enhance the risk assessment of ARDS patients prone to developing PNX and PMD and to institute more effective prevention and treatment measures.

    Abstract Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with significant short- and long-term morbidity and mortality. In critically ill patients with sepsis, AKI tends to be more severe, more likely to require kidney replacement therapy (KRT), with less chance of recovery. Consequently, critically ill patients with sepsis-associated AKI (SA-AKI) have extended intensive care unit (ICU) stays and higher mortality rates. This study evaluated the predictive value of clinical and transthoracic echocardiographic (TTE) parameters for recovery from moderate-to-severe SA-AKI in critically ill patients.
    Methods: This single-center historical cohort study was conducted at a tertiary academic medical center. We analyzed the data of all adults (age ≥18 years) admitted to the ICU at Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN, from June 1, 2018, to December 31, 2020. We included all patients who developed sepsis within the initial 24 h of their ICU stay.
    Results: We identified 2919 eligible septic patients with available TTE, among which 1431 patients (49%) had moderate-to-severe SA-AKI. The mean age of the patients was 68 ± 15 years, and the male-to-female ratio was 1.3:1. The most common comorbidities were diabetes mellitus and chronic lung and kidney diseases. Clinical predictors associated with SA-AKI non-recovery were the presence of stage III AKI (
    Conclusion: Our data from a single-center provide new information on the clinical (AKI stage, utilization of KRT, BMI, and peak serum creatinine) and echocardiographic features (TAPSE) associated with improved recovery in SA-AKI. There is a definite knowledge gap in the current literature regarding optimizing recovery in moderate-to-severe SA-AKI. Larger, multi-center studies are required to confirm these findings.

    Abstract There is little known about the differences, from the point of view of healthcare resource utilization, between non-fatal versus fatal firearm-related injuries. We undertook this research project utilizing the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) database to address this critical knowledge gap. Our aims for this study were to describe the patterns of FRI in the United States during the period of 2016-2019 and to evaluate the patient-centered outcomes in the survivor (non-fatal injuries) versus the non-survivor (fatal injuries) groups. We used the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) Database, 2016-2019 (5) (~ 20% of United States hospitalizations) to identify patients with an associated diagnosis of firearm-related injuries (FRI) [Gibson T et al (2016) in Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality 2016-02]. We found that the individuals from the lowest quartile of annual household income, males, young Americans, and racial minorities were disproportionally affected The non-survivor (fatal injuries) group had a shorter length of stay in the hospital by 5.1 days (95% CI - 5.64 to - 4.58, p value =  < 0.01), the higher median cost of hospitalization by $8903 (95% confidence interval $311.9 to $17,494.2, p value = 0.04), and a higher median cost of hospitalization per day by $41,576.74 (95% confidence interval $ 40,333.1 to $42,820.3, p value =  < 0.01). In conclusion, the individuals from the lowest quartile of annual household income, males, young Americans and racial minorities were disproportionally affected. Firearm-related injuries pose a persistent healthcare cost burden with the cumulative and per day cost of hospitalization for fatal injuries being significantly higher than the non-fatal injuries despite a shorter hospital LOS.
