Impact of the Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme (ACE) Inhibitors on the Course of the Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) Developed During COVID-19 and Other Severe Respiratory Infections Under Hyperferritinemia Conditions: A Cohort Study.
Background: Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) is not only the entry route of SARS-CoV-2 infection but also triggers a major mechanism of COVID-19 aggravation by promoting a hyperinflammatory state, leading to lung injury, hematological and immunological dysregulation. The impact of ACE2 inhibitors on the course of COVID-19 is still unclear. The effect of ACE2 inhibitors on the course of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) during COVID-19 and other severe respiratory infections in conditions of hyperferritinemia (HF) was investigated.
Methods: A cohort study of critically ill patients with COVID-19 and other respiratory diseases (widespread infection, pneumonia) who underwent treatment in The Critical Care Unit of the First University Clinic (Tbilisi, Georgia) during the 2020-2021 years was conducted. The impact of the ACE2 inhibitors on the course of the ARDS developed during COVID-19 and other severe respiratory infections in conditions of different severity of HF was evaluated.
Results: In COVID-19-infected (I) and uninfected (II) patients with ARDS, ACE2 inhibitors reduce the levels of Ang II, C reactive protein (CRP) and D-dimer (I: from 1508.07 ± 26.68 to 48.51 ± 24.35, from 233.92 ± 13.02 to 198.12 ± 11.88, from 7.88 ± 0.47 to 6.28 ± 0.43; II: from 1000.14 ± 149.49 to 46.23 ± 88.21, 226.48 ± 13.81 to 183.52 ± 17.32, from 6.39 ± 0.58 to 5.48 ± 0.69) at moderate HF and Ang II, CRP levels (I: from 1845.89 ± 89.37 to 49.64 ± 51.05, from 209.28 ± 14.41 to 175.37 ± 9.84; II: from 1753.29 ± 65.95 to 49.76 ± 55.74, 287.10 ± 20.50 to 214.71 ± 17.32) at severe HF, reduce interleukin-6 (IL-6) expression at moderate HF (I: from 1977.23 ± 354.66 to 899.36 ± 323.76) and cause reduction of pCO2 index at severe HF (I: from 69.80 ± 3.22 to 60.44 ± 2.20) in COVID-19-infected patients.
Conclusion: Study results show that the ACE2 inhibitors play an important role in the regulation of inflammatory processes in both COVID-19-infected and uninfected patients with ARDS. ACE2 inhibitors decrease immunological disorders, inflammation, and lung alveoli dysfunction, especially in COVID-19-infected patients.
