At the initial diagnosis of sepsis (6-24h before the development of ARDS), serum manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) levels and catalase activities are increased in septic patients who subsequently developed ARDS compared to septic patients who did not develop ARDS. Increases in MnSOD and catalase may be used to predict the occurrence of ARDS in septic patients with the same sensitivity, specificity and efficiency as parallel assessments of serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and Factor VIII levels. Evaluation of serum MnSOD and catalase as well as these other accessible markers facilitates identification of subsets of patients and allow prospective treatment of septic patients who are destined to develop ARDS.

Lors du diagnostic initial de la septicémie (de 6 à 24 heures avant l'apparition du syndrome de détresse respiratoire de l'adulte (SDRA)), la concentration de superoxyde dismutase à manganèse (Mn-SOD) et l'activité de la catalase dans le sérum sont en hausse chez les patients septiques qui ont souffert ultérieurement du SDRA, comparativement aux patients septiques qui n'en n'ont pas été atteints. Ces augmentations de la concentration de Mn-SOD et de l'activité de la catalase peuvent être utilisées pour prédire l'apparition du SDRA chez les patients septiques, avec les mêmes sensibilité, spécificité et efficacité que les évaluations simultanées des niveaux de lactate déshydrogénase (LDH) et de facteur VIII dans le sérum. L'évaluation de la Mn-SOD et de la catalase dans le sérum, ainsi que ces autres marqueurs accessibles facilitent l'identification de sous-ensembles de patients et permettent le traitement préventif des patients septiques susceptibles de souffrir du SDRA.
