    Abstract Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) continues to be an important cause of morbidity, mortality, and health care costs worldwide. Although there exist some heterogeneity between patients, the course of COPD is characterized by recurrent acute exacerbations, which are among the most common causes of medical admission to hospital. Patients with frequent exacerbations have accelerated lung function decline, worse quality of life, and greater mortality. Therefore, interest is growing in assessing the effectiveness of interventions used to treat exacerbations. The present review summarizes the current evidence regarding the use of ventilatory management to treat COPD and the implementation of novel cost-effective strategies, such as high-flow oxygenation or extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal to improve clinical outcomes and functional recovery in this disease and to reduce the associated costs.

    Abstract Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a common and complex inflammatory lung diseases affecting critically ill patients requiring mechanical ventilation. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), a novel pathway of non-coding RNA molecules that regulate gene expression at the post-transcriptional level, have emerged as a novel class of gene expression, and can play important roles in inflammation or apoptosis, which are common manifestations of ARDS and diffuse alveolar damage (DAD). In the present review, we discuss the role of miRNAs as biomarkers of ARDS and DAD, and their potential use as therapeutic targets for this condition.

    Abstract Background: There are no studies in large series of burn patients on the relationship between acute kidney injury (AKI) and adverse outcomes using the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) guidelines.
    Methods: We retrospectively analysed data from a cohort of burn patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) with the diagnosis of burn injury. The diagnosis of AKI over the first 7 days after injury was made according to the KDIGO guidelines. The primary outcome was ICU mortality. We used estimative models using univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses.
    Results: A total of 960 patients were studied and AKI was diagnosed in 50.5%. In multivariable analysis, AKI was associated, as compared with patients without AKI, with ICU mortality {adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 2.135 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.384-3.293]} and secondary outcomes [kidney replacement therapy, aOR 4.030 (95% CI 1.838-8.835); infection, aOR 1.437 (95% CI 1.107-1.866); hospital mortality, aOR 1.652 (95% CI 1.139-2.697)]. AKI stage 1 was associated with a higher ICU [aOR 1.869 (95% CI 1.183-2.954)] and hospital mortality [aOR 1.552 (95% CI 1.050-2.296)] and infection [aOR 1.383 (95% CI 1.049-1.823)]. AKI meeting the urine output (UO) criterion alone was not associated with increased mortality. Ignoring the UO criterion would have missed 50 (10.3%) cases with AKI.
    Conclusion: The KDIGO guidelines are useful to diagnose AKI in burn patients. Even the mild form of AKI is independently associated with increased mortality. Considering the UO criterion is important to more accurately assess the incidence of AKI, but AKI meeting the UO criterion alone is not associated with increased mortality.

    Abstract Abstract Forest restoration is an effective tool to mitigate climate change, but its implementation in highly diverse and threatened tropical dry forests (TDFs) is particularly challenging due to the hostile environment. Intraspecific trait variability (ITV) in response to these constraints may be very informative for predicting the potential for species acclimation and therefore for improving trait‐based species screenings that best match each particular scenario of forest restoration. We analyzed ITV during seedling establishment of three widely distributed and ecologically contrasting TDF species in a greenhouse multifactorial experiment crossing levels of resource availability (nutrients and water) and herbivory to assess the capacity of ITV to discern strategies of seedling establishment and to predict species’ growth rates and acclimation potential. The three species studied had contrasting responses to the experimental treatments, suggesting different strategies of seedling establishment. The species with the most plastic pattern of growth performed the best, especially due to its ability to modulate the trade‐off of root‐to‐shoot allocation of biomass depending on nutrient availability. Almost 50% of the variation in the root mass ratio was within species, half of which was a direct response of the treatments, indicating a strong acclimation potential. Individual‐level trait measurements, however, were poor predictors of seedling growth rates. ITV, particularly the ability to adapt the pattern of biomass allocation, can be critical during seedling establishment. We propose incorporating information about ITV and the ability of species to modulate their phenotypic expression to cope with environmental variability into programs of forest restoration. Easily implemented and standardized greenhouse experiments are an inexpensive way to obtain high‐quality data on the plasticity of forest species, which can be very valuable for predicting the potential of species acclimation and thus improving the selection ...

    Abstract Acute respiratory failure due to COVID-19 pneumonia often requires a comprehensive approach that includes non-pharmacological strategies such as non-invasive support (including positive pressure modes, high flow therapy or awake proning) in addition to oxygen therapy, with the primary goal of avoiding endotracheal intubation. Clinical issues such as determining the optimal time to initiate non-invasive support, choosing the most appropriate modality (based not only on the acute clinical picture but also on comorbidities), establishing criteria for recognition of treatment failure and strategies to follow in this setting (including palliative care), or implementing de-escalation procedures when improvement occurs are of paramount importance in the ongoing management of severe COVID-19 cases. Organizational issues, such as the most appropriate setting for management and monitoring of the severe COVID-19 patient or protective measures to prevent virus spread to healthcare workers in the presence of aerosol-generating procedures, should also be considered. While many early clinical guidelines during the pandemic were based on previous experience with acute respiratory distress syndrome, the landscape has evolved since then. Today, we have a wealth of high-quality studies that support evidence-based recommendations to address these complex issues. This document, the result of a collaborative effort between four leading scientific societies (SEDAR, SEMES, SEMICYUC, SEPAR), draws on the experience of 25 experts in the field to synthesize knowledge to address pertinent clinical questions and refine the approach to patient care in the face of the challenges posed by severe COVID-19 infection.
