Abstract
Background: Malglycemia in pediatric, adolescent and young adult (AYA) patients who undergo hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) is associated with increased infection and mortality rate. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) has been safely used in pediatric/AYA HSCT recipients, but there is a need for a composite metric that can easily be used in clinical settings to assess the glycemic control and identify high-risk patients who needs therapeutic intervention. Composite metrics derived from CGM have not been studied in pediatric/AYA HSCT patients. Methods: Patients aged 2-30 years old who are admitted inpatient while undergoing HSCT at Children's Hospital Colorado underwent CGM using the Abbot Freestyle Libre Pro device from up to 7 days before and 60 days after HSCT. A composite metric Q-score, comprising five primary factors of CGM profiles (central tendency, hyperglycemia, hypoglycemia, intradaily variations, and interdaily variations), was calculated for each patient for the duration of CGM wear. Results: Twenty-nine patients received CGM for an average of 25 days per participant. The median Q-score was 10.2 (interquartile range [IQR]: 8.3, 14.3). Sixty-nine percent of patients had Q-scores that would be categorized into the Fair or Poor category. There was no difference in the Q-score by sources of stem cell, types of primary disease, types of preparative regimen, need for PICU admission, presence of documented infections, and total parenteral nutrition use in the peri-HSCT period. Conclusions: Most pediatric/AYA HSCT recipients have Q-scores indicating suboptimal glycemic control in the peri-HSCT period. Future study should focus on developing screening and treatment strategies to improve malglycemia and its associated adverse clinical outcomes. This study was registered at clinicaltrials.gov (NCT03482154).

Abstract
Introduction This study aimed to validate hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) treatment via a tailored nutritional pathway in myeloablative conditioning (MAC), determine its efficacy in terms of remission, and explore associations between clinical outcomes and nutritional indicators. Methods We included patients who underwent MAC for HSCT at the Shizuoka Cancer Center Stem Cell Transplantation between 2015 and 2019. We evaluated outcomes from the day before treatment initiation (transplant date: day 0) to day 42. Results Among the 40 MAC cases (participant characteristics: 20/40 males, mean age of 52 years, and mean body mass index of 21.9 kg/m2), we found that the percent loss of body weight and loss of skeletal muscle mass were correlated with the basal energy expenditure rate (BEE rate; r = 0.70, p<0.001 and r = 0.49, p<0.01, respectively). Based on the receiver operating characteristics curves, the cutoff value for the BEE rate in terms of weight loss was 1.1. Salivary amylase levels did not significantly change during the treatment course. Continuous variables, including oral caloric intake and performance status, showed statistically significant correlations with nutrition-related adverse events during treatment (r = −0.93, p<0.01 and r = 0.91, p<0.01, respectively). Skeletal muscle mass before treatment initiation was an independent predictive variable for reduced 2-year survival (p = 0.04). Conclusion Our results support the validity of a safe nutritional pathway with a BEE rate of 1.1 for HSCT patients pretreated with MAC. Specifically, we found that this pathway could prevent weight loss in response to nutrition-related adverse events. Skeletal muscle mass before treatment was identified as an independent risk factor for reduced 2-year survival.

Abstract
Nutrition support is often required during hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) given the gastrointestinal toxicity that frequently precludes adequate protein-calorie intake. This article reviews the latest evidence for enteral versus parenteral nutrition in the adult and pediatric HCT population and addresses key considerations as well as barriers to implement this in practice. Registered Dietitian Nutritionists are key members of the interdisciplinary team to proactively manage enteral nutrition support to provide timely, adequate protein and calories to help prevent malnutrition, loss of lean body mass, and functional decline as well as provide evidence-based diet recommendations. This article also reviews emerging research supporting the role of luminal nutrients to maintain microbiotal diversity.

Abstract
Hyperglycemia is a known complication of therapies used in the treatment of childhood cancer, particularly glucocorticoids and asparaginase. It has been linked to increased infection and reduced survival. With more limited data on hyperglycemia during childhood cancer treatment compared with adult cancer, impact on outcomes is less clear in this population. As additional glycemic-altering cancer agents including immune checkpoint inhibitors and targeted therapies make their way into pediatric cancer treatment, there is a more pressing need to better understand the mechanisms, risk factors, and adverse effects of hyperglycemia on the child with cancer. Thus, we utilized a systematic approach to review the current understanding of the incidence, implications, and outcomes of hyperglycemia during childhood cancer therapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE Poor nutrition status in patients receiving high-dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) has been associated with inferior clinical outcomes. We aim to determine whether a malnutrition-driven nutritional support protocol can improve these outcomes. METHODS In this prospective cohort study, we assessed adults for malnutrition who were consecutively admitted for ASCT between October 2017 and March 2019 (n = 251), and provided enteral or parenteral nutrition (EN/PN) to patients who were malnourished early in the transplantation admission. We compared their clinical outcomes with those of a historical cohort admitted between May 2016 and October 2017 (n = 257) for whom nutrition assessment and initiation of EN/PN were not protocol-driven. RESULTS Patients receiving ASCT during the intervention period experienced decreased odds of prolonged hospital stay (p = 0.023), central line-associated bloodstream infection (p = 0.015), mucosal barrier injury (p = 0.037), and high weight loss (p = 0.002), in a multivariate analysis as compared with those receiving ASCT during the control period. Outcomes for ICU transfer, deconditioning on discharge, time to platelet engraftment, and unplanned 30-day hospital readmission did not differ significantly between groups. CONCLUSION A malnutrition-driven nutritional support protocol may improve outcomes for ASCT patients.

Abstract
Malglycemia (hypoglycemia, hyperglycemia, and/or glycemic variability) in adult hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) recipients is associated with increased infection, graft-versus-host disease, organ dysfunction, delayed engraftment, and mortality. Malglycemia has not been studied in pediatric HSCT recipients. This study aimed to characterize the incidence and consequences of malglycemia in this population. Medical records for a cohort of 344 patients, age 0 to 30 years, who underwent first HSCT from 2007 to 2016 at Children's Hospital Colorado were retrospectively reviewed. Glucose data were analyzed in intervals and assessed for potential risk factors and associated outcomes. Malglycemia occurred in 43.9% of patients. Patients with a day 0 to 100 mean glucose of 100 to 124 mg/dL had a 1.76-fold (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.10-2.82; P = .02) increased risk of death and patients with a day 0 to 100 mean glucose ≥ 125 mg/dL had a 7.06-fold (95% CI, 3.84-12.99; P < .0001) increased risk of death compared with patients with a day 0 to 100 mean glucose < 100 mg/dL. For each 10 mg/dL increase in pre-HSCT glucose, there was a 1.11-fold (95% CI, 1.04-1.18; P = .0013) increased risk of post-HSCT infection. These adverse impacts of malglycemia occurred independent of transplant type, graft-versus-host disease, and steroid therapy. Malglycemia in the pediatric HSCT population is independently associated with significantly increased risk of morbidity and mortality. Further research is required to evaluate the utility of glucose control to mitigate these relationships and improve HSCT outcomes. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT03482154.

Abstract
Chemotherapy treatment and autologous and allogeneic cell transplantations are often complicated by the onset of metabolic and endocrine disorders. Autoimmune disorders, metabolic diseases, and hormonal dysfunctions are some of the endocrine complications observed during or after treatment with immunotherapy (mostly novel agents) and/or chemotherapy conditioning for transplantation. Although successful treatment of the underlying hematological condition often improves the dysfunction, endocrinopathies can have an impact on prognosis and are associated with poor survival; therefore, it is important to detect and treat them as early as possible. An increased incidence of cardiovascular diseases and metabolic syndrome has been observed after transplantation mostly in long-term survivors. In addition, chemotherapy and radiation along with the prolonged use of corticosteroids can contribute to the onset of thyroid and gonadal dysfunctions. The aim of this article is to describe metabolic dysfunctions occurring in patients who underwent allogeneic cell transplantation.

Abstract
New-onset post-transplant diabetes mellitus (PTDM) occurs frequently after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT). Although calcineurin inhibitors and corticosteroids are assumed to be the cause for hyperglycemia, patients developing PTDM have elevated fasting C-peptide levels before HCT and before immunosuppressive medications. To determine if PTDM results from established insulin resistance present before transplant, we performed oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTTs) and measured whole body, peripheral, and hepatic insulin sensitivity with euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamps before and 90 days after HLA-identical sibling donor HCT in 20 patients without pretransplant diabetes. HCT recipients were prospectively followed for the development of new-onset PTDM defined as a weekly fasting blood glucose ≥ 126 mg/dL or random blood glucose ≥ 200 mg/dL. During the first 100 days all patients received calcineurin inhibitors, and 11 individuals (55%) were prospectively diagnosed with new-onset PTDM. PTDM diagnosis preceded corticosteroid treatment. During the pretransplant OGTT, elevated fasting (87 mg/dL versus 101 mg/dL; P = .005) but not 2-hour postprandial glucose levels predicted PTDM diagnosis (P = .648). In response to insulin infusion during the euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp, patients developing PTDM had lower whole body glucose utilization (P = .047) and decreased peripheral/skeletal muscle uptake (P = .031) before and after transplant, respectively, when compared with non-PTDM patients. Hepatic insulin sensitivity did not differ. Survival was decreased in PTDM patients (2-year estimate, 55% versus 100%; P = .039). Insulin resistance before HCT is a risk factor for PTDM independent of immunosuppression. Fasting pretransplant glucose levels identified PTDM susceptibility, and peripheral insulin resistance could be targeted for prevention and treatment of PTDM after HCT.

Abstract
PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION Poor health outcomes have been associated with hyperglycemia in patients with and without diabetes. However, the impact of hyperglycemia on the health-related outcomes of patients with cancer has shown conflicting results. The purpose of this review was to explore definitions and measurement issues related to the assessment of hyperglycemia and the subsequent impact on the findings of health-related outcomes in adults with cancer.
. LITERATURE SEARCH Four electronic databases were searched. DATA EVALUATION A total of 30 articles were reviewed. Quantitative articles were synthesized using integrative review strategies.
. SYNTHESIS Three key gaps were identified in the literature. CONCLUSIONS This review highlights the inconsistencies in measuring or assessing hyperglycemia and the lack of standardized guidelines in treating hyperglycemia. Failure to have a standard approach to the measurement and management of hyperglycemia impedes the ability of healthcare providers to determine the significance of its impact on health outcomes. Further research is needed to establish appropriate measurement guidelines to address hyperglycemia in people with cancer.
. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE Evidence-based measurement and treatment guidelines are needed to inform and assist healthcare providers with clinical decision making for people with cancer who experience hyperglycemia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Allogeneic haematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is often associated with poor oral intake due to painful mucositis and gastrointestinal sequalae that occur following a preparative regimen of intensive chemotherapy and/or total body radiation. Although attractive to assume that optimal nutrition improves HCT outcomes, there are limited data to support this. It is also unclear whether artificial nutrition support should be provided as enteral tube feeding or parenteral nutrition (PN). METHODS We analysed day-100 non-relapse mortality (NRM), incidence of acute graft-versus-host disease (GvHD), acute gastrointestinal GvHD, 5-year survival and GvHD-free/relapse-free survival (GRFS) according to both route and adequacy of nutritional intake prior to neutrophil engraftment, together with other known prognostic factors, in a retrospective cohort of 484 patients who underwent allogeneic HCT for haematologic malignancy between 2000 and 2014. RESULTS Multivariate analyses showed increased NRM with inadequate nutrition (hazard ratio (HR) 4.1; 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.2-7.2) and adequate PN (HR 2.9; 95% CI 1.6-5.4) compared to adequate enteral nutrition (EN) both P < .001. There were increased incidences of gastrointestinal GvHD of any stage and all GvHD ≥ grade 2 in patients who received PN (odds ratio (OR) 2.0; 95% CI 1.2-3.3; P = .006, and OR 1.8; 95% CI 1.1-3.0; P = .018, respectively), compared to adequate EN. Patients who received adequate PN and inadequate nutrition also had reduced probabilities of survival and GRFS at 5 years. CONCLUSION Adequate EN during the early transplantation course is associated with reduced NRM, improved survival and GRFS at 5 years. Furthermore, adequate EN is associated with lower incidence of overall and gut acute GvHD than PN, perhaps because of its ability to maintain mucosal integrity, modulate the immune response to intensive chemo/radiotherapy and support the gastrointestinal tract environment, including gut microflora.

Abstract
Recommendations on screening and nutritional support for patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) have been presented by international nutritional societies, but nutritional practices remain poorly standardized. Following the general policy of the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT) to standardize transplantation procedures, the Complications and Quality of Life Working Party and Nursing Research Group carried out a survey among all EBMT centers about their current nutritional practices. The aim of this study was to better understand current practices, differences from available guidelines, and possible barriers for recommended nutritional therapy. Responses from 90 centers (19%) from 23 countries were received. We observed a marked variability in nutritional care between EBMT centers and a substantial lack of standardized operating procedures in screening patients for malnutrition and management of gastrointestinal GVHD. Furthermore, our study confirmed neutropenic diet as standard of care in most centers as well a preference for parenteral nutritional support over enteral. On the basis of these findings, future EBMT efforts will focus on better implementation of international nutritional guidelines into clinical practice.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVES To examine the prevalence and impact of hyperglycemia on health outcomes (number of neutropenic days, infection, and hospital length of stay) in patients hospitalized for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) receiving initial induction therapy.
. DESIGN Retrospective, descriptive study.
. SETTING A large urban hospital in Indianapolis, Indiana.
. SAMPLE 103 patients with AML and a subset of 41 patients aged 65 years or older.
. METHODS Demographics and medical information were extracted from electronic health records. Serum-fasting blood glucose was used to assess glycemic status. The association of hyperglycemia with the health outcomes was analyzed. A subset of patients aged 65 years or older was also analyzed.
. MAIN RESEARCH VARIABLES Hyperglycemia, age, and health outcomes in patients with AML.
. FINDINGS Forty patients experienced hyperglycemia during initial induction for AML. In the larger sample, no associations were noted between hyperglycemia and health outcomes. A significant relationship (p = 0.022) was noted between hyperglycemia and infection in patients aged 65 years or older. Patients aged 65 years or older had 5.6 times the risk of developing infection as those aged younger than 65 years. Although not statistically significant, patients aged 65 years or older with hyperglycemia had 2.5 more days of neutropenia and 1.5 days longer hospital length of stay.
. CONCLUSIONS This study provides preliminary evidence that hyperglycemia is prevalent during initial induction for AML and may have harmful consequences, particularly for patients aged 65 years or older. More research is needed to determine clinically significant levels of hyperglycemia and their impact on health outcomes.
. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING Oncology nurses can assess and proactively collaborate with members of the healthcare team to implement strategies to prevent or mitigate the harmful consequences of hyperglycemia.

A multi-center prospective study randomizing the use of fat emulsion in intensive glucose control after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation using a myeloablative conditioning regimen. Clin Nutr 2017; 37:1534-1540. [PMID: 29187302 DOI: 10.1016/j.clnu.2017.08.022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2016] [Revised: 08/15/2017] [Accepted: 08/21/2017] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Although parenteral nutrition (PN) is often used after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT), there is controversy regarding PN management, for instance in the use of fat emulsion and glucose control (GC). To clarify these issues, we conducted a multi-center prospective study with intensive GC, randomizing the use of fat emulsion after allo-HSCT using a myeloablative conditioning regimen. METHODS The primary endpoint was the cumulative incidence of documented infectious disease, namely bacterial and fungal infection, at day 100 after allo-HSCT. Between August 2007 and March 2012, we enrolled 81 patients at 5 centers. Excluding 5 ineligible patients, 76 patients received the protocol treatment. The target fasting glucose level was 80-110 mg/dL. RESULTS The median follow-up of surviving patients was 1796 days. The cumulative incidences of documented infectious disease at day 100 were 16% (95% confidence interval [CI] 6-29%) in the no-fat group and 19% (95% CI 8-32%) in the fat group, indicating no significant difference. The mean glucose level at 28 days after allo-HSCT was 107 mg/dL in the no-fat group and 111 mg/dL in the fat group. Grade 3 hyperglycemia (>250 mg/dL) and grade 3 hypoglycemia (<40 mg/dL) occurred in 4 patients each (5.3%). Overall survival and non-relapse mortality rates at 4 years were 75% and 11% in the no-fat group and 69% and 8% in the fat group, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Irrespective of the use of fat emulsion, the long-term clinical outcomes of the enrolled patients were favorable under intensive GC. To further clarify the benefits of GC after allo-HSCT, a prospective study randomizing the level of GC is warranted.

Abstract
Oncology patients often experience the classic signs of malnutrition-weight loss as well as fat and muscle wasting, which have been associated with poor tolerance to treatment and increased morbidity and mortality. Nutrition status may be an important factor in determining tolerance to treatment and outcomes associated with it. Thus, identification of those with preexisting malnutrition or who are at risk for developing malnutrition is crucial not only at time of cancer diagnosis but also throughout the treatment course so that nutrition interventions may be implemented to prevent development or worsening of malnutrition in this high-risk population. These patients often have extremely complicated hospital courses due to the aggressive nature of the disease and treatment, leading to intensive care unit admission and periods of critical illness. Critical illness is associated with catabolism, extreme stress on the body, and a state of systemic inflammation. During critical illness, it is important to provide adequate nutrition to prevent further break down of lean muscle mass and oxidative cellular injury and to regulate favorable immune responses. The purpose of this review is to discuss the importance of nutrition screening and assessment for the critically ill patient with cancer; to appropriately identify those at risk for, or who have developed, malnutrition; and to provide appropriate interventions to optimize nutrition status. This review also discusses the complications and difficulties associated with feeding this patient population and offers nutrition support recommendations.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is an established treatment option for various hematological diseases. This therapy involves complex procedures and is associated with several systemic complications. Due to the toxic effects of the conditioning regimen used in allogeneic transplantations, patients frequently suffer from severe gastrointestinal complications and are unable to feed themselves properly. This complex clinical scenario often requires specialized nutritional support, and despite the increasing number of studies available, many questions remain regarding the best way to feed these patients. Parenteral nutrition has been traditionally indicated when the effects on gastrointestinal mucosa are significant; however, the true benefits of this type of nutrition in reducing clinical complications have been questioned. Hyperglycemia is a common consequence of parenteral nutrition that seems to be correlated to poor transplantation outcomes and a higher risk of infections. Additionally, nutrition-related pre-transplantation risk factors are being studied, such as impaired nutritional status, poorly controlled diabetes mellitus and obesity. This review aims to discuss some of these recent issues. A real case of allogeneic transplant was used to illustrate the scenario and to highlight the most important topics that motivated this literature review.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is a potentially curative treatment for patients with hematological malignancies. However, is associated with substantial rates of morbidity and mortality. We and others have shown that malglycemia is associated with adverse transplant outcome. Therefore, improving glycemic control may improve transplant outcome. In this prospective study we evaluated the feasibility of using Glucommander (a Computer-Guided Glucose Management System; CGGM) in order to achieve improved glucose control in hospitalized HCT patients. Nineteen adult patients contributed 21 separate instances on CGGM. Patients were on CGGM for a median of 43 h. Median initial blood glucose (BG) on CGGM was 244 mg/dL, and patients on 20 study instances reached the study BG target of 100-140 mg/dL after a median of 6 h. After BG reached the target range, the median average BG level per patient was 124 mg/dL. Six patients had a total of 10 events of BG <70 mg/dL (0.9% of BG measurements), and no patients experienced BG level <40 mg/dL. The total estimated duration of BG <70 mg/dL was 3 h (0.2% of the total CGGM time). In conclusion, our study demonstrates that stringent BG control in HCT patients using CGGM is feasible.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) recipients frequently develop glucose intolerance and post-transplant diabetes mellitus (PTDM). The clinical importance of PTDM and its detrimental impact on HSCT outcomes are under-recognized. After allo-HSCT, various mechanisms can contribute to the development of PTDM. Here we review information about hyperglycemia and PTDM after allo-HSCT as well as PTDM after solid organ transplantation and describe ways to manage hyperglycemia/PTDM after allogeneic HSCT. Taking into consideration a lack of well-established evidence in the field of allo-HSCT, more studies should be conducted in the future, which will require closer multidisciplinary collaboration between hematologists, endocrinologists and nutritionists.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) has become an established treatment modality for various hematological diseases. However, in allogeneic HSCT, patients often suffer from severe gastrointestinal complications caused by the conditioning regimen and acute/chronic graft-versus-host disease, which requires support by multidisciplinary nutritional support teams (NST). In addition, pretransplantation nutritional status can affect the clinical outcome after allogeneic HSCT. Therefore, it is important to refer the patient to a NST when becoming aware of nutritional problems before allogeneic HSCT. It is also important to follow nutritional status over the long term, as patients often suffer from various nutritional problems, such as malnutrition and metabolic syndrome, even late after allogeneic HSCT. In summary, NST can contribute to the improvement of nutritional status and possibly prognosis at every stage before and after allogeneic HSCT. Here, we aim to give a comprehensive overview of current understanding about nutritional support in allogeneic HSCT and try to provoke a constructive discussion to stimulate further investigation.

Abstract
PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION Many patients undergoing hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) for hematologic malignancies experience hyperglycemic events during treatment, leading to adverse outcomes. Understanding how hyperglycemia during the acute HCT treatment phase impacts outcomes is vital for preventing and mitigating adverse events. This integrative review evaluates the impact of hyperglycemia on adult patients undergoing HCT. LITERATURE SEARCH PubMed, MEDLINE®, and CINAHL® electronic databases were used to identify relevant articles.Data Evaluation: The final sample for this integrative review included 12 empirical quantitative reports of clinical patient outcomes. Of the 12, 10 are retrospective, 1 is case-control, and 1 is prospective. DATA ANALYSIS Content analysis was used to synthesize and summarize findings.Presentation of Findings: A review of published literature found associations between hyperglycemia and infection, time to engraftment, development of acute graft-versus-host disease, length of stay, and overall survival. Patient-related risk factors for hyperglycemia included older age, preexisting diabetes, and insulin resistance (i.e., prediabetes). Patients of normal weight experiencing hyperglycemia had worse outcomes than patients who were overweight or obese. Treatment-related risk factors for hyperglycemia include dose and duration of immunosuppressants, specifically corticosteroids, treatment with antihyperglycemic medications, and use of total parenteral nutrition. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE HCT is one of the most complex treatments for hematologic disorders. The transplantation nurse, as part of an interdisciplinary team, plays an essential role in glycemic control during the acute phase of HCT. Understanding the effects of hyperglycemia, as well as factors that place the patient at risk for hyperglycemia, allows the nurse to make well-informed, proactive interventions aimed at glycemic control.

Abstract
Significant hyperglycemia is commonly observed immediately after solid organ and bone marrow transplant as well as with subsequent hospitalizations. Surgery and procedures are well known to cause pain and stress leading to secretion of cytokines and other hormones known to aggravate insulin action. Immunosuppression required for transplant and preexisting risk are also major factors. Glucose control improves outcomes for all hospitalized patients, including transplant patients, but is often more challenging to achieve because of frequent and sometimes unpredictable changes in immunosuppression doses, renal function, and nutrition. As a result, risk of hypoglycemia can be greater in this patient group when trying to achieve glucose control goals for hospitalized patients. Key to successful management of hyperglycemia is regular communication between the members of the care team as well as anticipating and rapidly implementing a new treatment paradigm in response to changes in immunosuppression, nutrition, renal function, or evidence of changing insulin resistance.

Abstract
Patients with hematologic malignancies are at high risk for hyperglycemia due to factors such as frequent exposure to glucocorticoids, immunosuppressants, total parenteral nutrition, and medical stress. Hyperglycemia in these patients has been associated with poor outcomes including increased risk of infection, organ dysfunction, durability of remission, graft-versus-host disease, and mortality. However, the appropriate glucose targets are not well established, and there are few prospective data assessing whether glucose control improves outcomes. HbA1c should be interpreted with caution in patients with hematologic malignancies, due to inaccuracies imposed by disordered hematopoiesis and frequent transfusions, and short-term perturbations imposed by acute illness or medications. Management of diabetes or glucocorticoid-induced hyperglycemia in the hospital generally requires insulin therapy, which is tailored based upon nutritional needs, baseline glucose control, and concomitant factors such as type and dose of glucocorticoid administration. Close follow-up and adjustment of therapy, ideally with the assistance of patient self-titration algorithms, is required after discharge. Patients are at increased long-term risk for developing diabetes and therefore should undergo regular screening.

Abstract
New onset diabetes mellitus is frequently observed following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and is associated with adverse transplantation outcomes. However, the outcomes of patients with preexisting diabetes mellitus undergoing HSCT are largely unknown. We aimed to explore the impact of preexisting diabetes on transplantation outcomes in HSCT. In a retrospective study, medical charts of 34 HSCT recipients with diabetes mellitus undergoing allogeneic or autologous transplantation were reviewed and compared with 71 HSCT recipients without diabetes. Primary outcome was overall survival. Secondary outcomes included hematopoietic recovery, length of hospital stay, febrile neutropenia, acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), primary disease recurrence, and non-relapse mortality (NRM). On univariate analysis, there was no difference in transplantation outcomes in recipients with diabetes compared with recipients without diabetes. However, after adjusting for potential covariates, multivariate analysis demonstrated that having diabetes before HSCT significantly predicted outcome and decreased overall survival (hazard ratio 0.51, 95% confidence interval: 0.27-0.97, p value: 0.04). This study suggests that patients with diabetes mellitus undergoing allogeneic or autologous HSCT may have inferior survival rates and warrant further attention.

Abstract
Infection represents an important cause of morbidity after autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Immunodeficiency is the key risk factor and results from interplay between the underlying disease and its therapy. Various defects in the immune system coexist in HSCT recipients. In the early post-transplant period, neutropenia, oral and gastrointestinal mucositis, and the presence of central venous catheters are the main risk factors. Bacterial infections predominate, and the agents and antibiotic susceptibility profiles vary widely in different regions. Invasive candidiasis is infrequent with fluconazole use, but the incidence of invasive aspergillosis is on the rise, mainly in patients receiving purine analogues or intensive chemotherapy before transplant. In the post-engraftment period, infections are less frequent, but may contribute to significant non-relapse mortality. The dynamics of immune reconstitution drives the risk for infection in this period. The most frequent infections are varicella-zoster virus disease and respiratory tract infections. Assessment of the risk of infection in each period and the identification of patients at higher risk of specific infections are critical to the appropriate management of infectious complications after autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) can experience gastrointestinal (GI) side effects as a complication of the treatment. Limited research exists describing how the duration and severity of GI side effects influence the consumption of adequate calorie intake in this population. The purpose of this study was to assess differences in GI side effects between patients who consumed adequate calories compared with those who did not. METHODS The MD Anderson Symptom Inventory-Gastrointestinal (MDASI-GI) tool was used to record daily GI side effects of 72 HSCT patients. Daily calorie intake was determined via calorie counts. Data were collected from day of transplant until engraftment. RESULTS Median percentage of caloric needs consumed for all patients was 49.2% (interquartile range, 35.1-66.6). Calorie intake decreased from baseline to transplant day 8 as severity of GI symptoms increased. An inverse relationship between percentage of caloric needs met and MDASI-GI component score, MDASI-GI symptom score, and lack of appetite score was observed. The only significant difference in MDASI-GI symptom scores between those who consumed adequate calories and those who consumed inadequate calories was for diarrhea; subjects who consumed >60% of caloric needs had significantly lower median diarrhea scores. CONCLUSION Most patients consumed <60% of their caloric needs from time of transplant to time of engraftment. More research is needed to provide insight into strategies to increase intake and to describe the implications of prolonged inadequate intake in HSCT patients.

Abstract
Up to 50% of patients with cancer suffer from weight loss and undernutrition (as called cachexia) even though it is rarely screened or properly handled. Patients' prognosis and quality of life could be greatly improved by simple and inexpensive means encompassing nutritional status assessment and effective nutritional care. These guidelines aim to give health professionals and patients practical and up-to-date advice to manage nutrition in the principal situations encountered during the cancer course according to the type of tumour and treatment (i.e. radio and/or chemotherapy). Specific suggestions are made for palliative and elderly patients because of specific risks of undernutrition and related comorbidities in this subset. Levels of evidence and grades of recommendations are detailed as stated by current literature and consensus opinion of clinical experts in each field.

Risk factors for diabetes mellitus and impaired glucose tolerance following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in pediatric patients with hematological malignancies. Int J Hematol 2014; 99:477-86. [PMID: 24557711 DOI: 10.1007/s12185-014-1536-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2013] [Revised: 02/05/2014] [Accepted: 02/05/2014] [Indexed: 12/30/2022]
Abstract
Long-term surviving recipients of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) often suffer from diabetes mellitus (DM). We sought to identify risk factors for the development of post-transplant DM and impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) in pediatric HSCT patients. Glucose tolerance statuses were evaluated in 22 patients aged 6.3-21.8 years who had received allogeneic HSCT between the ages of 0.8-13.5 years. Five patients were diagnosed as having type 2 DM, and treated with insulin or oral hypoglycemic agents. Five patients were included in the IGT group, and the remaining 12 children were in the normal glucose tolerance (NGT) group. The cumulative incidence of DM plus IGT was 11.6 % at 5 years and 69.3 % at 10 years. None of the patients were obese/overweight and none had a family history of DM. There were no significant differences in serum levels of leptin and adiponectin between the DM + IGT and the NGT groups. An average preprandial glucose levels in the DM + IGT group were significantly higher than those in the NGT group from preparative conditioning to 60 days after HSCT. In multivariate analysis, an age of ≥6 years at the time of HSCT was significantly associated with the development of DM + IGT. Additionally, careful follow-up is necessary, even for NGT patients.

Abstract
Parenteral nutrition (PN) exacerbates hyperglycemia, which is associated with increased morbidity and mortality in various cancer populations. By using a retrospective design, we examined incident hyperglycemia in PN and non-PN recipients and the associations with clinical events and 5-year survival in a cohort treated for myeloma with melphalan and auto-SCT (n=112). Clinical comparisons were made at admission, and 'before' and 'after' initiating PN to discern differences and temporality. Actual infusion times were used for PN patients; time frames based on mean PN infusion days were created for the non-PN recipients. Oral intake was lower 'before' in PN vs non-PN patients (P<0.001); however, no differences in mucositis, emesis, infections or transfusions were detected 'before.' Incident hyperglycemia (≥7.0 mmol/L) was significant 'after' PN initiation, and PN recipients experienced delays in WBC (P<0.05) and platelet engraftment (P=0.009), and required significantly greater RBC (P=0.0014) and platelet (P=0.001) support 'after' than non-PN patients. Neutropenic fever and longer hospital stay were more frequent among PN vs non-PN recipients (P<0.001). Differences in 5-year mortality were not apparent. The findings fail to support clinical benefits of PN administration during auto-SCT for myeloma. Further study is needed to discern if hyperglycemia or feeding per se was deleterious in this patient population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Hyperglycemia may increase mortality in patients who receive total parenteral nutrition (TPN). However, this has not been well studied in noncritically ill patients (i.e., patients in the nonintensive care unit setting). The aim of this study was to determine whether mean blood glucose level during TPN infusion is associated with increased mortality in noncritically ill hospitalized patients. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS This prospective multicenter study involved 19 Spanish hospitals. Noncritically ill patients who were prescribed TPN were included prospectively, and data were collected on demographic, clinical, and laboratory variables as well as on in-hospital mortality. RESULTS The study included 605 patients (mean age 63.2 ± 15.7 years). The daily mean TPN values were 1.630 ± 323 kcal, 3.2 ± 0.7 g carbohydrates/kg, 1.26 ± 0.3 g amino acids/kg, and 0.9 ± 0.2 g lipids/kg. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that the patients who had mean blood glucose levels >180 mg/dL during the TPN infusion had a risk of mortality that was 5.6 times greater than those with mean blood glucose levels <140 mg/dL (95% CI 1.47-21.4 mg/dL) after adjusting for age, sex, nutritional state, presence of diabetes or hyperglycemia before starting TPN, diagnosis, prior comorbidity, carbohydrates infused, use of steroid therapy, SD of blood glucose level, insulin units supplied, infectious complications, albumin, C-reactive protein, and HbA1c levels. CONCLUSIONS Hyperglycemia (mean blood glucose level >180 mg/dL) in noncritically ill patients who receive TPN is associated with a higher risk of in-hospital mortality.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVES To examine empirical research regarding the role of malglycemia (hyperglycemia, hypoglycemia, or glycemic variability) on clinical outcomes among hospitalized patients with cancer. DATA SOURCES Research articles were obtained from the Ovid, PubMed, and CINAHL® databases. Key words used in the search included hyperglycemia or malglycemia and neoplasm combined with venous thromboembolism, infection, or mortality. DATA SYNTHESIS Eleven research articles were examined reporting the impact of malglycemia on various outcomes, including infection, mortality or survival, length of hospital stay, and toxicity. CONCLUSIONS Findings suggest that malglycemia may have a negative impact on outcomes for hospitalized patients with cancer. Increased rates of infection, mortality, length of stay, and toxicities, as well as decreased survival, were reported. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING Oncology nurses play an important role in the identification of patients with malglycemia. Early assessment and intervention for those patients can improve outcomes and quality of life.

Abstract
The beneficial effects of total parenteral nutrition (TPN) in improving the nutritional status of malnourished patients during hospital stays have been well established. However, recent randomized trials and meta-analyses have reported an increased rate of TPN-associated complications and mortality in critically ill patients. The increased risk of complications during TPN therapy has been linked to the development of hyperglycemia, especially during the first few days of TPN therapy. This retrospective study was conducted to determine whether the amount of dextrose from TPN in the 1st week in the intensive care unit (ICU) was related to the development of hyperglycemia and the clinical outcome. We included 88 non-diabetic critically ill patients who stayed in the medical ICU for more than two days. The subjects were 65 ± 16 years old, and the mean APACHE (Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation) II score upon admission was 20.9 ± 7.1. The subjects received 2.3 ± 1.4 g/kg/day of dextrose intravenously. We divided the subjects into two groups according to the mean blood glucose (BG) level during the 1st week of ICU stay: < 140 mg/dl vs ≥ 140 mg/dl. Baseline BG and the amount of dextrose delivered via TPN were significantly higher in the hyperglycemia group than those in the normoglycemia group. Mortality was higher in the hyperglycemia group than in the normoglycemia group (42.4% vs 12.8%, P = 0.008). The amount of dextrose from TPN was the only significant variable in the multiple linear regression analysis, which included age, APACHE II score, baseline blood glucose concentration and dextrose delivery via TPN as independent variables. We concluded that the amount of dextrose delivered via TPN might be associated with the development of hyperglycemia in critically ill patients without a history of diabetes mellitus. The amount of dextrose in TPN should be decided and adapted carefully to maintain blood glucose within the target range.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Hyperglycemia is a recognized complication of parenteral nutrition (PN). We aimed to determine the impact of hyperglycemia during PN unaccompanied by tight blood glucose (BG) control on hospital complications and mortality. METHODS We reviewed the medical records of 276 medical and surgical patients receiving PN to determine the impact of hyperglycemia on survival after adjusting for known prognostic factors, and to determine whether BG levels before initiation of PN, within 24 hours of PN initiation, or during PN therapy are predictive of adverse outcomes. RESULTS A total of 276 medical (35%) and surgical (65%) patients receiving PN initiated 12 ± 12 days after admission for a mean of 15 ± 24 days. Deceased patients (27.2%) were older, had higher Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II scores, and had higher BG levels during PN therapy versus survivors (all, P < 0.01). Deceased patients had higher BG levels within 24 hours of PN initiation (162 ± 55 mg/dL vs 139 ± 37 mg/dL; P = 0.003) and higher BG levels during days 2 to 10 of PN (161 ± 53 mg/dL vs 142 ± 34 mg/dL; P = 0.013) compared with survivors. Blood glucose levels were associated with increased odds ratio (OR) for mortality pre-PN (P = 0.008), within 24 hours of PN initiation (P < 0.001), and during days 2 to 10 of PN (P < 0.001). In multiple regression models adjusted for age, sex, and history of diabetes, mortality was independently associated with pre-PN BG levels 121 to 150 mg/dL (OR, 2.2; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.1-4.4), 151 to 180 mg/dL (OR, 3.41; 95% CI, 1.3-8.7,), and > 180 mg/dL (OR, 2.2; 95% CI, 0.9-5.2), and with BG levels within 24 hours of PN initiation > 180 mg/dL (OR, 2.8; 95% CI, 1.2-6.8). A BG level > 180 mg/dL within 24 hours of PN initiation was associated with increased risk of pneumonia (OR, 3.1; 95% CI, 1.4-7.1) and acute renal failure (OR, 2.3; 95% CI, 1.1-5.0). CONCLUSION Hyperglycemia during PN without tight BG control is associated with increased risk of hospital complications and mortality. Randomized controlled trials are needed to determine benefits of intensified glycemic control on clinical outcomes in hospitalized subjects receiving PN.

Abstract
Hyperglycemia secondary to total parenteral nutrition (TPN) is reported in adults. In addition, insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes as late consequences of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) are well described. Both situations are generally manageable with traditional insulin dosing. We present two children who developed severe insulin resistance requiring intravenous insulin therapy at doses up to 13 units/kg/h. Both children were on TPN after undergoing HSCT for hemophagocytic syndrome. We believe that our report will alert physicians to such a condition and help with early recognition that is a key to successful intervention. These cases aim to increase awareness and stimulate research to unravel the associated underling mechanisms.

Abstract
Both obesity and malnutrition are considered risk factors for complications after bone marrow transplantation (BMT). To elucidate the impact of pretransplantation body mass index (BMI) on clinical outcome, we performed a retrospective cohort study with registration data from the Japan Marrow Donor Program (JMDP). Between January 1998 and December 2005, a total of 3935 patients received unrelated BMT through the JMDP; of these, 3827 patients for whom pretransplantation height and weight data were available were included in the study. Patients were stratified according to pretransplantation BMI values (low BMI: BMI < 18 kg/m(2), n = 295; normal BMI: 18 < or = BMI < 25 kg/m(2), n = 2906; overweight: 25 < or = BMI <30 kg/m(2), n = 565; obese: 30 kg/m(2) < or = BMI, n = 61). In a univariate analysis, pretransplantation BMI was associated with a significantly greater risk of grade II-IV acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD; P = .03). Multivariate analysis showed that pretransplantation BMI tended to be associated with an increased risk of grade II-IV acute GVHD (P = .07). Obesity was associated with an increased risk of infection compared with normal BMI (odds ratio = 1.9; 95% confidence interval = 1.1 to 3.2; P = .02). Our findings demonstrate a correlation between pretransplantation BMI and posttransplantation complications. Although BMI depends strongly on multiple factors, the effect of obesity on clinical outcome should be evaluated in a prospective study.
