Subphenotypes and precision medicine in acute respiratory distress syndrome].

The presence of significant complex heterogeneity among patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a major reason for the failure of drug treatments. Precision medicine seeks to elucidate the potential mechanisms of ARDS heterogeneity, define subtypes of ARDS patients with specific characteristics, and rapidly identify the patient groups most likely to benefit from targeted treatments, thereby maximizing treatment efficiency and minimizing adverse reactions. This review discusses on the current state of research on ARDS subtypes from multiple perspectives, including etiology, onset time, radiology, pathology, oxygenation index, respiratory mechanics, protein biomarkers, genetics, transcriptomics, and microbiomics, with the aim of deepening the understanding of the pathogenesis of ARDS and thereby guiding precision treatment of ARDS.
