Oxidative stress can be associated with hyperoxia and hypoxia and is characterized by an increase in reactive oxygen (ROS) and nitrogen (RNS) species generated by an underlying disease process or by supplemental oxygen that exceeds the neutralization capacity of the organ system. ROS and RNS acting as free radicals can inactive several enzymes and vasodilators in the nitric oxide pathway promoting pulmonary vasoconstriction resulting in persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN). Studies in animal models of PPHN have shown high ROS/RNS that is further increased by hyperoxic ventilation. In addition, antioxidant therapy increased PaO in these models, but clinical trials are lacking. We recommend targeting preductal SpO between 90 and 97%, PaO between 55 and 80 mmHg and avoiding FiO > 0.6-0.8 if possible during PPHN management. This review highlights the role of oxidative and nitrosative stress markers on PPHN and potential therapeutic interventions that may alleviate the consequences of increased oxidant stress during ventilation with supplemental oxygen.

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a syndrome characterized by increased pulmonary vascular resistance and elevated pulmonary artery pressure, ultimately leading to right heart failure and even death. Increasing evidence implicates the fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO) in various metabolic and inflammatory pathways; however, its role in pulmonary endothelial function and PAH remains largely unexplored. In this study, we examined the effects of endothelial cell-specific FTO knockout on PAH development.

Background: Plasma exchange (PE) removes high-molecular-weight substances and is sometimes used for antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis (AAV) with alveolar hemorrhage. Hypotension during PE is rare, except in allergic cases. We report a case of shock likely caused by increased pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) during PE.
