Yoon J, Kym D, Hur J, Won JH, Yim H, Cho YS, Chun W. Time-varying discrimination accuracy of longitudinal biomarkers for the prediction of mortality compared to assessment at fixed time point in severe burns patients. BMC Emerg Med 2021; 21:1. [PMID: 33407163 PMCID: PMC7786914 DOI: 10.1186/s12873-020-00394-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2020] [Accepted: 12/11/2020] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The progression of biomarkers over time is considered an indicator of disease progression and helps in the early detection of disease, thereby reducing disease-related mortality. Their ability to predict outcomes has been evaluated using conventional cross-sectional methods. This study investigated the prognostic performance of biomarkers over time. METHODS Patients aged > 18 years admitted to the burn intensive care unit within 24 h of a burn incident were enrolled. Information regarding longitudinal biomarkers, including white blood cells; platelet count; lactate, creatinine, and total bilirubin levels; and prothrombin time (PT), were retrieved from a clinical database. Time-dependent receiver operating characteristic curves using cumulative/dynamic and incident/dynamic (ID) approaches were used to evaluate prognostic performance. RESULTS Overall, 2259 patients were included and divided into survival and non-survival groups. By determining the area under the curve using the ID approach, platelets showed the highest c-index [0.930 (0.919-0.941)] across all time points. Conversely, the c-index of PT and creatinine levels were 0.862 (0.843-0.881) and 0.828 (0.809-0.848), respectively. CONCLUSIONS Platelet count was the best prognostic marker, followed by PT. Total bilirubin and creatinine levels also showed good prognostic ability. Although lactate was a strong predictor, it showed relatively poor prognostic performance in burns patients.

Evaluation of Nutrition Risk in Patients Over 65 Years of Age With Nontraumatic Acute Abdominal Syndrome. Nutr Clin Pract 2020; 35:1070-1079. [PMID: 32935880 DOI: 10.1002/ncp.10575] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2020] [Accepted: 08/11/2020] [Indexed: 11/11/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The objective of this study is to investigate the power of CRP/Albumin ratio, NRS-2002, mNUTRIC scores to predict nutritional needs and mortality in patients over 65 years of age diagnosed with acute abdominal syndrome in the emergency department and then transferred to the surgical intensive care unit. MATERIAL AND METHOD CRP/Albumin ratio, APACHE II, SOFA, NRS-2002 and mNUTRIC scores were calculated. The analysis of the data was conducted in IBM SPSS Statistics Base 22.0 package program. RESULTS In the analytical evaluation made for nutritional needs, AUC value for mNUTRIC was found to be: 0,683, 95% CI 0,611-0,755, p < 0.001. It was found out that mortality of patients had a statistically significant and moderate correlation with mNUTRIC score (r = 0.537; p < 0.001). In the analytical evaluation made for mortality, mNUTRIC's AUC value (AUC: 0.808, 95% CI 0.736-0.880, p < 0.001) was found to be the highest. When the cut-off value determined to predict mortality was taken as 3.5 for mNUTRIC score, sensitivity was 75.9% and specificity was 69.4%. CONCLUSION The evaluation of the risk of malnutrition through nutritional risk tools in intensive care patients over 65 years of age with acute abdominal syndrome can also predict nutritional needs in the early period besides mortality. Based on our data, the fact that mNUTRIC score cut-off value in older patients hospitalized in intensive care is 3.5 and higher may be a predictor for ICU mortality.
