Progress in optimization of lung protective ventilation strategy in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome
[Journal Article]Lei Hui, Song Shengren, Zhang Xianming-China Medicine2025, No.09

Abstract:Acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS)poses a severe challenge to the treatment of mechanical ventilation due to its complex pathophysiological characteristics.Optimization of lung protective ventilation strategy is considered to be the key to reduce the incidence of ventilation-induced lung injury and improve the prognosis of patients.However,due to the regional heterogeneity of lung lesions in ARDS patients,a single ventilation parameter setting is difficult to meet individual needs.In recent years,monitoring techniques based on respiratory mechanics,such as respiratory electromyography and esophageal manometry,have made it possible to accurately regulate personalized ventilation parameters.Respiratory electromyography can quantify diaphragm activity and respiratory muscle fatigue in real time,so as to optimize ventilator synchrony.By assessing the transpulmonary pressure gradient,esophageal manometry can guide the reasonable setting of positive end-expiratory pressure and tidal volume to reduce the risk of alveolar overdistension and repeated opening.The combination of these technologies can not only significantly reduce the incidence of ventilation-induced lung injury in patients with ARDS,but also improve oxygenation level and lung compliance.This article systematically reviews the research progress of lung protective ventilation strategy optimization in ARDS patients based on respiratory mechanics,focusing on the application advantages and future development direction of respiratory electromyography and pressure monitoring technology in individualized treatment.

[Journal Article]Yu Chunxiang, Yan Meihong, Li Yan et al.-China Medicine2025, No.09

Abstract:Objective To investigate the expression of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2 A(CDKN2A)and B lymphocyte-induced mature protein 1(Blimp-1)in cervical high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion(HSIL)and their relationship with the progression of HSIL.Methods A total of 815 patients with HSIL who underwent cervical conization in Shanxi Children's Hospital from January 2019 to January 2022 were selected.According to the postoperative pathological results,the patients were divided into progressive group and non-progressive group.The surgically resected cervical tissues were taken to detect the expression of CDKN2A mRNA and Blimp-1 mRNA.Pearson method was used to analyze the correlation between CDKN2A mRNA and Blimp-1 mRNA.Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors for the progression of HSIL.Receiver operating characteristic curve was used to analyze the value of CDKN2A mRNA and Blimp-1 mRNA in the diagnosis of HSIL progression.Results Among 815 patients with HSIL,97 cases(11.9%)were confirmed to progress to cervical cancer by postoperative pathology,which was the progressive group,and the remaining 718 cases(88.1%)were the non-progressive group.The expression level of CDKN2A mRNA in cervical tissue of progressive group was lower than that of non-progressive group[(0.53±0.13)vs(1.43±0.27)],and the expression level of Blimp-1 mRNA was higher than that of non-progressive group[(2.65±0.71)vs(1.27±0.24)](all P<0.001).The expression of CDKN2A mRNA was negatively correlated with the expression of Blimp-1 mRNA in cervical tissues(r=-0.650,P<0.05).Human papillomavirus 16/18 infection,cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 3 and high expression of Blimp-1 mRNA were risk factors for HSIL progression to cervical cancer(all P<0.05),and high expression of CDKN2A mRNA was a protective factor(P<0.05).The area under the curve of CDKN2A mRNA and Blimp-1 mRNA in the diagnosis of HSIL progression was 0.777 and 0.759,respectively.The area under the curve of combined diagnosis was 0.920,which was higher than that of single diagnosis(both P<0.05).Conclusion Low expression of CDKN2A mRNA and high expression of Blimp-1 mRNA in cervical tissues are risk factors for the progression of HSIL to cervical cancer.The combination of CDKN2A mRNA and Blimp-1 mRNA can predict the risk of HSIL progression.
