Abstract
INTRODUCTION Several side effects within the patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), especially ones that influence nutrition intake, can cause weight loss and malnutrition. Based on studies, oral nutritional supplement (ONS) may reinforce their nutrient intake and progress clinical outcomes. The objective of this research is to investigate the effect of oral nutrition supplements on the nutritional and clinical status of patients undergoing autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. METHODS After block randomization used the website www.randomization , 38 patients will be enrolled in this study, patients will be allocated to the intervention (ONS) or control groups in a 1: 1 ratio. Patients in the ONS group will receive 250 ml of standard formula (Ensure®, Abbott Nutrition) which has 14-15% protein twice a day, in the morning and bedtime snacks for 21 days. All the procedures done in the control group will be the same as the ONS group except receiving ONS. We will examine the outcomes include; weight, appetite, hand grip strength, calf circumference, mid-arm circumference, total energy intake, protein intake, carbohydrate intake, fat intake, severity of oral mucositis, rate of infection during hospitalization, graft failure, recurrence rate after transplantation, the number of days it takes for neutrophil and platelet engraftment to occur, number of readmissions after transplantation during three months, mortality rate up to three months after transplantation and the three-day food diary record; all the evaluations will be carried out in three steps; 7 days before transplant, on the 14th day after transplantation, and on the 90th day after the transplantation. DISCUSSION These patients' weight loss and malnourishment are significant concerns. The use of ONS in patients receiving HSCT has not been the subject of any research. TRIAL REGISTRATION This clinical trial was registered in Iranian Registry of Clinical Trials ( http://www.irct.ir ) on 2022-12-09 with the code number IRCT20220208053971N2.

Abstract
Objective This retrospective study evaluated nutritional status and body composition changes in paediatric β-thalassemia (β-TM) patients before and after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), using bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), and explored their relationship with HSCT outcomes. Methods A cohort of 40 paediatric β-TM patients undergoing allogeneic HSCT was assessed for their nutritional status, anthropometric parameters, including body mass index (BMI), weight, and height, and body composition parameters pre-and post-HSCT, focusing on BIA measurements, including intracellular water (ICW), extracellular water (ECW), fat mass (FAT), fat-free mass (FFM), Skeletal Muscle Mass (SMM), soft Lean Mass (SLM), percent body fat (PBF), Body Cell Mass (BCM), Phase angle (PA) and muscle balance pre- and post-HSCT. Post-HSCT clinical outcomes, including acute graft-vs-host disease (aGVHD), engraftment time, oral mucositis (OM), sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS), and diarrhoea in relation to nutrition status after HSCT were analysed. Results After HSCT, 28.21% experienced diminished nutritional status, with 71.43% of those who were wasting before HSCT showing diminished nutritional status, significantly higher than the normal group (18.75%, P = 0.012). Anthropometric changes included significant weight reduction (87.5%, 22.15 ± 7.46 vs 20.74 ± 6.57, P < 0.001) and BMI decrease (90%, 15.19 ± 1.70 vs 14.05 ± 1.48, P < 0.001). Body composition parameters, which are FFM, SMM, SLM, ICW, ECW, BCM, and PA (18.26 ± 5.71 vs 17.27 ± 5.19, 8.68 ± 3.30 vs 7.93 ± 3.02, 17.11 ± 5.28 vs 16.06 ± 4.84, 8.19 ± 2.54 vs 7.62 ± 2.31, 5.15 ± 1.58 vs 4.94 ± 1.47, 11.74 ± 3.63 vs 10.92 ± 3.32, 4.42 ± 0.50 vs 3.90 ± 0.57, respectively, P < 0.001) analysis revealed significant decreases. No significant differences in clinical outcomes were observed based on nutritional status. Conclusion Paediatric β-TM patients undergoing HSCT exhibit significant changes in nutrition status and body composition, emphasizing the need for focused attention on malnourished children who are more prone to diminished nutritional status. Comprehensive BIA aids in understanding the impact, urging consideration for extended follow-up and larger cohorts in future research.

Abstract
Background Rehabilitation therapy is important to treat physical and functional impairments that may occur in individuals receiving physically taxing, yet potentially curative hematopoietic stem cell transplants (HSCT). However, there is scarce data on how rehabilitation is delivered during HSCT in real-life setting. Our objective is to assess the rehabilitation practices for adult patients hospitalized for HSCT in the United States. Methods A 48-question online survey with cancer centers with the top 10% HSCT volumes (per American registries). We obtained data on patient characteristics, rehabilitation therapy details (timing, indication, administering providers), physical function objective and subjective outcome measures, and therapy activity precautions. Results Fourteen (out of 21) institutions were included. Rehabilitation therapy referrals occurred at admission for all patients at 35.7% of the centers for: functional decline (92.9%), fall risk (71.4%), and discharge planning (71.4%). Participating institutions had physical therapists (92.9%), occupational therapists (85.7%), speech language pathologists (64.3%) and therapy aides (35.7%) in their rehabilitation team. Approximately 71% of centers used objective functional measures including sit-to-stand tests (50.0%), balance measures (42.9%), and six-minute walk/gait speed (both 35.7%). Monitoring of blood counts to determine therapy modalities frequently occurred and therapies held for low platelet or hemoglobin values; but absolute neutrophil values were not a barrier to participate in resistance or aerobic therapies (42.9%). Discussion Rehabilitation practices during HSCT varied among the largest volume cancer centers in the United States, but most centers provided skilled therapy, utilized objective, clinician and patient reported outcomes, and monitored blood counts for safety of therapy administration.

Abstract
PURPOSE Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) recipients experience several post-HSCT complications affecting nutritional status, body mass index (BMI), and mortality that can potentially be mitigated by nutritional management. This rapid review examines the relationship between pre-HSCT nutritional status and BMI and post-HSCT survival. METHODS Articles were identified from PubMed, Scopus, and Embase. Two researchers independently completed the title, abstract, and full-text review. Inclusion criteria included the following: (1) randomized clinical trials or observational studies; (2) human subjects diagnosed with cancer and undergoing HSCT; (3) reported pre-HSCT nutritional status (e.g., diet recall, nutritional survey, dietitian session) or BMI; and (4) reported treatment related mortality and/or survival. RESULTS The initial search found 3036 articles, 28 were included in full-text review, and 18 met inclusion criteria. Articles had quasi-experimental (n = 2) and observational (n = 16) study designs. Of the studies, n = 5 reported nutritional intake decreased post-HSCT, and n = 2 reported nutrition intervention (i.e., controlled feeding) post-HSCT improved survival. Four studies reported having a BMI classified as underweight improved survival, while n = 5 reported having a BMI classified as overweight or obese improved survival. CONCLUSION Current research exploring the relationship between nutritional status and BMI with HSCT survival is mixed. Further research is needed to determine how nutritional status and BMI are associated withsurvival post-HSCT to inform future intervention work.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION the aim of this study is to compare the changes in anthropometry, dynamometry and bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) of patients undergoing autologous and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) after the conditioning period and one-week post-transplantation, and to assess whether these early changes are associated with the development of later complications. METHODS prospective cohort study. Nutritional status was assessed by anthropometry, dynamometry and BIA at three different defined times: T1, time of admission; T2, after the myeloablative conditioning period; and T3, day + 8 post-HSCT. RESULTS forty patients were evaluated, 17 received autologous HSCT (TAU) and 23 received allogeneic HSCT (TAL). Patients with TAL had higher mortality and hospital stay compared to patients with TAU. Those who developed graft versus host disease (GVHD) presented a lower phase angle (PA) than those who did not develop this complication (T2: TAL PA with GVHD 4.8° vs TAL PA without GVHD 5.5°, p = 0.007). The patients who died during the hospital stay are all from the TAL group and had PA less than 5° at T3. Weight, body mass index (BMI) and fat-free mass index (FMI) did not show a significant impact, and all of them were influenced by total body water. CONCLUSIONS early nutritional evaluation of these patients by phase angle seems promising, since it is not altered by water retention and can be evaluated before anthropometric changes occur.

Abstract
Malnutrition is the most common comorbidity during the continuum of hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) and negatively impacts clinical outcomes, response to therapy, quality of life, and costs. The intensive conditioning regimen administered before transplant causes inflammatory damages to the gastrointestinal system, which themselves contribute to trigger graft versus host disease (GvHD) in the allogeneic setting. GvHD and other post-transplant complications such as infections adversely affect food intake and gut absorption of nutrients. Consequently, patients exhibit signs of malnutrition such as weight loss and muscle wasting, thus triggering a "vicious circle" that favours additional complications. Among HSCT centres, there is marked variability in nutritional care, from screening for malnutrition to nutritional intervention. The present paper, elaborated by the Cellular Therapy and Immunobiology Working Party and the Nurses Group of the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation, aims at defining a roadmap that identifies the main nutritional critical issues in the field of HSCT. This document will be propaedeutic to the development of clinical algorithms to counteract risk factors of malnutrition, based on scientific evidence and shared among HSCT centres, and thus maximize transplant outcomes.

Abstract
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES To investigate the prognostic role of chest CT-defined sarcopenia and adipopenia in severe aplastic anemia (SAA) patients treated with hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). MATERIALS AND METHODS This was a retrospective study of 123 consecutive SAA patients treated with HSCT. CT imaging was performed to quantify the pectoralis muscle (including major and minor) index (PMI) and the corresponding subcutaneous adipose tissue index (SAI). Sarcopenia and adipopenia were defined as PMI and SAI lower than the respective sex-specific medians. Correlations of the PMI and SAI with anthropometric indexes were calculated. Transplant-related outcomes were compared between the sarcopenia and adipopenia groups. Prognostic factors for overall survival (OS) and fail-free survival (FFS) were identified by Cox regression and were used to create a nomogram. The accuracy of the nomogram was evaluated by ROC curves. RESULTS PMI showed good correlation with BMI and fat-free mass index (p < 0.001). SAI correlated with BMI and fat mass index (p < 0.001). The sarcopenia group (47.2%) had a significantly worse 3-year OS (90.8% vs. 77.6%, p = 0.045) and 3-year FFS (89.2% vs. 74.1%, p = 0.035) than the nonsarcopenia group. Sarcopenia status and diagnostic category were used to construct the nomogram of OS, as these were independent prognostic factors in the multivariate analysis for OS and FFS (p < 0.05). The area under the curve of the nomogram at one year and three years was 0.801 and 0.721, respectively. CONCLUSION Sarcopenia indicates a poor prognosis in SAA patients undergoing HSCT. Intensive supportive care is suggested for SAA patients with sarcopenia before transplantation.

Abstract
Haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a treatment option for many haematological conditions in patients of all ages. Nutritional support is important at each stage of treatment, but particular nutritional needs and dictated support occur during the preparatory (conditioning regimen) and post-transplant periods. Patients may require nutritional treatment by the enteral or parenteral route. The quantitative and qualitative composition of meals may change. Vitamin requirements, including vitamin D and vitamin C, might also be different. An adequately composed diet, adapted to the needs of the patient, may influence the occurrence of complications such as graft-versus-host disease (GvHD), gastrointestinal disorders, infections, and reduced survival time. Haematological diseases as well as transplantation can negatively affect the intestinal flora, with negative consequences in the form of mucosal inflammation and disorders of a functional nature. Currently, aspects related to nutrition are crucial in the care of patients after HSCT, and numerous studies, including randomized trials on these aspects, are being conducted. This study serves the critical analysis of current scientific evidence regarding nutritional support for patients after HSCT.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To analyze psychological states and needs of patients after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). METHODS Questionnaires were sent to 101 allo-HSCT survivors and 96 questionnaires were returned. The questionnaire covered several categories: (1) demographics and general information, (2) physical conditions, (3) psychologic status and sleep quality, (4) survivor's comments on transplantation, (5) demands and needs, (6) preferred forms and channels of information. RESULTS Depression and poor sleep quality were major concerns troubling allo-HSCT survivors. A notable discrepancy exists between clinically diagnosed depression (4.2%) and self- reported depression based on BDI-13 (55.2%). Young adults (18-49 years old), chronic graft-versus-host disease, the ECOG performance score of 2-4, surviving within 5 years since HSCT, no or low dose of ATG used and being single were significantly associated with self-reported depression. Based on the PSQI score, 75% of survivors experienced varying degrees of sleep quality impairment. Young adults, chronic GVHD and the ECOG score of 2-4 were significantly associated with worse sleep quality. The majority of patients reported unmet needs on physical and psychosocial aspects. Nutrition information was the most important topic, followed by disease treatments and fatigue. Differences in informational needs were found in the survivors according to age, time since HSCT and gender. WeChat public account and WeChat applet, mobile interactive platform and one-to-one conversation were the favorite channel for information. CONCLUSIONS Clinicians should establish more appropriate survivorship care plans focusing on survivors' psychologic states, demands and needs.

The influence of the China GLIM standards on the diagnosis of malnutrition in patients with hematopoietic stem cell transplant. Front Nutr 2023; 9:1077442. [PMID: 36742004 PMCID: PMC9889691 DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2022.1077442] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2022] [Accepted: 12/22/2022] [Indexed: 01/20/2023] Open
Abstract
Background The muscle-related indicator is removed from Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria implemented in China for many reasons. Patients with hematopoietic stem cell transplants are at nutrition risk and can enter into the second step of GLIM; thus, they are suitable for learning the diagnosing malnutrition significance between primary GLIM and GLIM-China criteria. This article aims to explore the role of muscle mass in the diagnostic criteria of malnutrition and the effects of GLIM-China for diagnosing malnutrition. Methods A total of 98 inpatients with hematopoietic stem cell transplants (HSCT) were recruited. Nutrition risk was assessed by using the Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS-2002). Appendicular skeletal muscle mass (ASMI) and fat-free mass index (FFMI) were determined using the bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) method. Malnutrition is defined by GLIM-China, GLIM, and PG-SGA. We use erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP) to assess inflammation in GLIM and GLIM-China. The correlation or consistency among ASMI, FFMI, ESR, CRP, GLIM-China, GLIM, and PG-SGA was evaluated, respectively. Results One hundred percent instead of the patients had nutritional risk. The magnitude of malnutrition using PG-SGA, GLIM, and GLIM-China was 75.5, 80.6, and 64.3%, respectively. GLIM-China and PG-SGA showed the same performance (p = 0.052 vs. 1.00) and agreement (kappa = 0.404 vs. 0.433, p < 0.0001) with the FFMI. Consistency was noted between ASMI and PG-SGA in the assessment of malnutrition (p = 0.664) with a good agreement (kappa = 0.562, p = 0.084). ASMI and FFMI could determine muscle mass reduction, which could not be determined by BMI, albumin (ALB), and pre-albumin (pre-ALB); 34% of GLIM-China (-) patients were with low ASMI, and 40% with low FFMI; 30.0% of patients with PG-SGA (<4) still have low ASMI, and 38.2% have low FFMI. Conclusion If only the PG-SGA scale is used as a diagnostic criterion for evaluating malnutrition, a large proportion of patients with reduced muscle mass will be missed, but more patients with muscle loss will be missed via GLIM-China. Muscle-related indicators will help diagnose malnutrition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Malnutrition has been linked with higher risk of poor outcomes post-allogeneic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT); however, few studies have used a validated nutrition assessment tool such as the Patient Generated Subjective Global Assessment (i.e., PG-SGA) to measure nutritional status and investigate associations with long-term clinical outcomes. The present study aimed to assess the incidence of malnutrition prior to alloSCT and determine whether there was an association between nutritional status pre-transplant and post-transplant clinical outcomes including acute kidney injury, graft-versus-host disease, intensive care admission, need for haemodialysis and survival. METHODS A retrospective analysis of 362 patients (213 males:149 females, mean ± SD age = 47.8 ± 14.1 years) who underwent alloSCT from 2008 to 2013 was conducted. Data on clinical outcomes were obtained for 5 years post-transplant. RESULTS Fifteen percent (n = 56) of patients were identified as malnourished pre-admission. Malnutrition was associated with longer hospital stay (p = 0.007), increased requirement for haemodialysis (p = 0.016) and increased admissions to the intensive care unit (p = 0.003). There was no association between malnutrition and acute kidney injury, graft-versus-host disease or survival. Following multivariate analyses, malnutrition remained significantly associated with increased admission rates to the intensive care unit (odds ratio = 3.8, 95% confidence interval = 1.3-10.5, p = 0.011) and increased length of hospital stay > 30 days (odds ratio = 3.6. 95% confidence interval = 1.8-7.4, p ≤ 0.001). CONCLUSIONS These findings add importance to the need for nutrition screening and assessment to be routinely undertaken for patients prior to alloSCT and throughout hospitalisation to provide early nutrition intervention for the prevention of malnutrition, poor clinical outcomes and increased healthcare costs.

Nutrients 2022; 14:nu14173589. [PMID: 36079847 PMCID: PMC9460256 DOI: 10.3390/nu14173589] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2022] [Revised: 08/24/2022] [Accepted: 08/25/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Malnutrition is common after allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (alloHSCT), and interventions directed to correct nutritional status are warranted to improve transplant outcomes. In this prospective study, an oral polymeric formulation enriched with TGF-β2 (TE-OPF) was explored to correct malnutrition according to Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment (PG-SGA). TE-OPF was proposed to 51 consecutive patients who received transplants at our institution for hematological malignancies, and sufficient dose intake was established per protocol as at least 50% of the prescribed dose of TE-OPF: group A received adequate nutritional support; group B, inadequate. The study met the primary outcomes in terms of safety (no adverse events reported during TE-OPF intake except for its disgusting taste) and malnutrition (PG-SGA C 28 days after transplant): severely malnourished patients (PG-SGA C) accounted for 13% in group A and 88.9% in group B (p = 0.000). At the end of the study, after a median follow-up of 416 days, the estimated median Overall Survival (OS) was 734 days for well or moderately nourished patients (PG-SGA A/B) in comparison to 424 for malnourished patients (p = 0.03). Inadequate TE-OPF intake was associated with an increase in acute gastrointestinal Graft Versus Host Disease (GVHD) cumulative incidence (38% vs. 0% p = 0.006). A higher incidence of pneumonia was reported in group B (p = 0.006). IGF-1 levels at 14 and 28 days after transplant were significantly higher in group A and were associated with a lower incidence of acute GVHD (aGVHD). Higher subsets of B, T, and NK cells were found in group A, and a higher number of CD16+ NK cells was associated with a lower incidence of acute GVHD (p = 0.005) and increased survival at the end of the study (p = 0.023). Artificial neural network analysis suggested that inadequate TE-OPF intake, pneumonia, and sepsis significantly affected malnutrition 28 days after alloHSCT and survival 365 days after alloHSCT (normalized importance 100%, 82%, and 68%, respectively). In this exploratory and preliminary study, the use of TE-OPF appeared to reduce the incidence of malnutrition after alloHSCT, but larger and controlled studies are required.

Abstract
Although the effects of malnutrition on morbidity and mortality in adult patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation are clear, the relationship with quality of life (QOL) is less clear. The purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between malnutrition and QOL. A prospective observational study was conducted in 36 adult patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Adapted criteria of the Global Leadership Initiative on malnutrition have been used for the diagnosis of malnutrition in clinical settings. A cancer linear analog scale was used to assess QOL. Overall QOL at 14 days after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation was 37.1 (95% CI 2.9–45.39) in patients without severe malnutrition, versus 16.0 (95% CI − 6.6 to 38.6) in patients with severe malnutrition (p = 0.05). At discharge, it was 48.0 (95% CI 38.4–57.6) versus 34.0 (95% CI 4.1–63.9) (p = 0.27). The results of our study suggest that patients with severe malnutrition at discharge tend to have worse QOL. A larger cohort of patients is required to confirm this hypothesis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) remains a major complication and limitation to successful allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Treatment of GvHD is challenging due to its heterogeneous nature of presentation, with steroids remaining the established first-line treatment. Long-term doses of systemic corticosteroids have many well-known side-effects including muscle atrophy. Despite the fact that reports in non-cancer clinical populations treated with glucocorticoids demonstrated that resistance training can reverse atrophy and weakness, no RCT has evaluated the potential of resistance training on preventing the disease- and treatment-induced loss of skeletal muscle mass and function in GvHD patients yet. In this context, ensuring adequate nutrition is important as protein deprivation may accelerate the wasting process. As GvHD patients are commonly found to be malnourished, nutritional medical care should be considered when investigating the effect of exercise in GvHD patients. Therefore, the aim of the present "Impact of Resistance Exercise and Nutritional Endorsement on physical performance in patients with GvHD" - Study (IRENE-G) is to evaluate the effects of resistance exercise in combination with nutritional endorsement on physical, nutritional and patient-reported outcomes in GvHD patients. METHODS IRENE-G is a 24-week prospective interventional RCT. One hundred twelve participants will be randomly allocated (1:1) to one of two arms: resistance exercise and nutritional optimization (experimental) vs. nutritional optimization only (control). Participants in the experimental group will engage in a supervised, progressive moderate-to-high intensity resistance training that is consistent with exercise guidelines for cancer patients, while additionally receiving nutritional support/therapy. Subjects of the control group solely receive nutritional support/therapy based on individual needs. Participants will be assessed at baseline, at 8, 16, 24 weeks for physical performance and various physiological, nutritional and patient-reported outcomes. Follow-up will be 6 months after intervention completion. DISCUSSION To our knowledge, this will be the first RCT to assess and compare the effects of a resistance intervention supplemented by nutritional support/therapy against nutritional support only on various health-related outcomes in GvHD patients. The study will contribute to our understanding of the value of exercise and nutritional endorsement in counteracting the negative consequences of GvHD and its treatment.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) recipients frequently show physical dysfunction due to loss of muscle mass. This study aimed to clarify the reliability and validity of ultrasound in evaluating muscle mass and to analyze the patterns of change in muscle mass before and after allo-HSCT. We conducted a prospective observational study using data from 68 patients who had undergone their first allo-HSCT. We evaluated the thickness of the quadriceps, biceps, and suprahyoid muscle. Three individual evaluators underwent this examination for each muscle before transplantation and on days 30, 90, and 180 after allo-HSCT. Inter-rater reliability was calculated using the interclass correlation (ICC), and the level of correlation between muscle mass measured by ultrasound and psoas muscle mass assessed using computed tomography (CT) was assessed using Pearson correlation. ICC values ranged from 0.897 to 0.977 in the measurement. The correlation scores were 0.730, 0.546 and 0.579 between psoas muscle and the biceps, quadriceps, and suprahyoid muscle. The thickness of the biceps and quadriceps muscle were both significantly decreased after allo-HSCT from baseline. These results showed that the ultrasound technique was a reliable tool for evaluating muscle mass and detecting changes in muscle mass following allo-HSCT.

Abstract
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is caused by the newly discovered SARS-CoV-2. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a high-risk procedure. The novelty of COVID-19 has created more uncertainty during all phases of HSCT. It is thought that HSCT patients taking immunosuppressive agents are more likely to contract COVID-19 than healthy individuals are. Appropriate care precautions should be taken with patients undergoing HSCT to minimize the risk of COVID-19, and appropriate treatment methods must be followed in patients infected with COVID-19. Malnutrition has become a significant problem in HSCT patients during the COVID-19 pandemic. The causes of malnutrition in HSCT patients are multifactorial. However, the most important reason is the decrease in energy and nutrient intake. The HSCT procedure can lead to many complications such as dysgeusia, mucositis, diarrhea, constipation, xerostomia and vomiting/nausea. Improving the nutritional status of HSCT patients by managing each of these special complications with an appropriate nutritional approach is essential for successful engraftment. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the specific complications affecting the nutritional status of HSCT patients and their nutritional approach during the challenging COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract
Malnutrition is a common problem after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) and could impair immune function. Immune dysfunction after allo-HSCT may be linked with infections, GVHD, and relapse and negatively affect the outcome. Aim of this review was to identify malnutrition biomarkers, potentially useful for immune-system monitoring, in the setting of allo-HSCT. After a systematic search, no satisfying biomarker was found, except for citrulline. Citrulline could be useful in monitoring gastrointestinal function after allo-HSCT and its role in the complex relationship with immune-system function ought to be better explored. A multi-omics approach, including biomarkers and PRO (patient reported outcomes) is, in our opinion, the optimal way to study the relationship between malnutrition and transplant outcomes.

Abstract
Objective This systematic review aimed to identify the most relevant problems related to malnutrition in adult patients undergoing haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and to identify non‐pharmacological interventions to treat these problems. Methods A systematic search for each research question was performed in MEDLINE, CINAHL, Embase, the Cochrane Library, Google Scholar and reference lists in the period 2009–2019. Results Six and nine studies were included respectively. Quantitative pooling of data was not possible due to the heterogeneity of the studies. Oral mucositis (OM), nausea/vomiting, diarrhoea and dysgeusia were the most frequently reported nutritional problems. Cryotherapy and laser therapy seem to be effective in the prevention and treatment of OM. Recommendations for or against the use of mouth rinses and light therapy in the treatment of OM cannot be made, as too few studies have been conducted in this area. The evidence for non‐pharmacological treatment options in the case of nausea/vomiting and diarrhoea is rather limited. No study was identified with regard to treatment of dysgeusia. Conclusion Nutrition in HSCT patients has not yet been studied to a satisfactory extent. There is an urgent need for high‐quality studies to be conducted in this area to optimise the care of patients undergoing haematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Malnutrition in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) can develop rapidly without appropriate nutritional support and affect morbidity and mortality. Guidance to monitor and manage nutrition status is described within the literature; however, whether this is applied in clinical practice is unclear. METHODS This paper describes a cross-sectional survey to explore current practice approaches in nutrition support management and adherence to international guidelines. RESULTS A total of 108 nurses from 108 centers across 16 countries replied to the questionnaire. A significant variation was observed regarding the availability of documents supporting the monitoring and management of nutrition status, application of recommendations, and nutritional practices. DISCUSSION The findings revealed that country was the most important factor influencing the differences in practice; however, significant differences were also observed based on patient age group (pediatrics vs. adults), department composition (hematology + HSCT unit vs. HSCT unit alone), and availability of nutrition health care professionals. Behavioral differences regarding nutritional practice approaches could be indicative of differences in knowledge or subject awareness, as well as a reflection of diversity across health care system policies. CONCLUSIONS Guideline dissemination and raising awareness through educational campaigns are suggested approaches to improve health care professionals' knowledge and sensitivity to this important topic.

Geriatric nutritional risk index as a useful prognostic factor in second allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Ann Hematol 2020; 99:1655-1665. [PMID: 32524200 DOI: 10.1007/s00277-020-04089-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/26/2019] [Accepted: 05/13/2020] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
Second allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) has a low survival outcome and a high non-relapse mortality (NRM) rate which is a major obstacle to this treatment. We hypothesized that the status of malnourishment after first allo-HSCT as represented by the geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) could be used as a prognostic factor to determine the outcomes of second allo-HSCT. A total of 108 patients with a median age of 42 (range, 17-69) years, who received second allo-HSCT for disease recurrence after first allo-HSCT from our institution, were included in this study. Low GNRI had a significant impact on NRM at 2 years after second allo-HSCT: 56.9% in patients with GNRI ≤ 92 compared with 27.5% in patients with GNRI > 92 (P = 0.002). In multivariate analysis, GNRI of ≤ 92 was the only significant factor for NRM (hazard ratio [HR] 2.29, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.15-4.56, P = 0.018). High-risk disease status at second allo-HSCT (HR 2.74, 95% CI 1.46-5.14, P = 0.002) and GNRI of ≤ 92 (HR 1.70, 95% CI 1.02-2.82, P = 0.042) were identified as significant factors for overall survival (OS). A score of 1 was assigned to each factor, and the OS rate at 2 years after second allo-HSCT decreased according to the score: 53.0% in patients with score 0, 32.3% with score 1, and 2.5% with score 2 (P < 0.001). In conclusion, GNRI could be a useful predictor for the outcomes of second allo-HSCT. A prospective study in other cohorts is warranted to validate the findings of our study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Malnutrition frequently occurs in hematology diseases and may threaten the course of treatment and patient outcomes. While screening for nutritional risk is often done in hospitalized patients, it is rarely described in the outpatient setting. Hematology patients are often followed in outpatient settings before hospitalization and for a longer time after. AIMS The primary aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of nutritional risk measured by unintended weight loss within three months and reduced food intake within one week among patients in a hematology outpatient clinic. The second purpose was to investigate the two variables as a quick initial screening tool. METHODS All patients visiting the outpatient clinic within one week were invited to participate in this study, designed as a questionnaire-based cross-sectional study, consisting of nine questions. Descriptive statistical analyses, chi2 test and simple logistic regression analyses were performed. RESULTS Of the 219 included patients, 23.7% had an unintended weight loss of mean 13.7% of body weight within the last three months and 13.2% had eaten less than usual within the past week. Patients who had significantly increased odds for unintended weight loss were >80 years of age [CI95%: 1274; 6084], patients visiting for examinations [CI95%: 1.105; 7.227], patients visiting for treatment [CI95%: 1.383; 6598] and patients visiting as part of a course of investigations [CI95%: 1.112; 34.184] as well as patients who had eaten less [CI95%: 2.731; 14.224]. Patients visiting the outpatient clinic for examination had significantly increased odds of having eaten less [CI95%: 1.783; 14.629]. CONCLUSIONS Based on the statistical analyses, almost one fourth of the patients had a significant unintended weight loss, about 15% had reduced food intake and only 7.8% had both unintended weight loss and reduced food intake. These results indicate that unintended weight loss can be used as a quick screening tool to identify and detect patients at risk of malnutrition and that guidelines should be drawn up for managing patients at nutritional risk in hematology outpatient clinics.

Abstract
The role of body weight change in survival among recipients of hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation is controversial. We assessed the effect of optimizing energy and protein intake on 1-year survival, body weight and body composition, and the effect of body weight and body composition on 1-year survival in 117 patients (57 intervention, 60 control) in a randomized controlled trial. Cox regression was used to study effects of the intervention, weight and body composition on death, relapse, and nonrelapse mortality (NRM). We found no significant effect of intervention versus control on death hazard ratio (HR) 1.05, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.54-2.04, p = 0.88), relapse (HR 1.15, 95% CI 0.48-2.27, p = 0.75), and NRM (HR 0.95, 95% CI 0.39-2.28, p = 0.90). Body weight, fat-free mass index, body fat mass index and total body water changed over time (p < 0.001), similarly in both groups (0.17 ≤ p ≤ 0.98). In multivariable analyses adjusted for group, gender and age, HRs and 95% CIs per one kilo increase in weight were 1.03 (1.01-1.06) and 1.04 (1.01-1.08) for death and NRM after 1 year (p ≤ 0.02), respectively, and 1.08 (1.01-1.15) for relapse after 3 months (p = 0.02). In conclusion, weight gain is possibly due to fluid retention and is an indicator of a complication in HSCT, rather than a marker of improved nutritional status.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Malnutrition is a common finding in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) patients, and there is some evidence that malnutrition might negatively affect the transplant outcomes. METHOD We performed a retrospective study with 148 patients aged 18-75 years, who underwent alloHSCT between 2011 and 2017. Patients were classified according to the body mass index (BMI) and the Subjective Global Assessment (SGA). The SGA was assessed on the day of hospitalization for the transplant, and classifies patients into three groups: A (well-nourished), B (moderately malnourished) and C (severely malnourished). RESULTS The SGA classified 49 (33%) patients as well-nourished, 54 (37%) as moderately malnourished, and 45 (30%) as severely malnourished. SGA-C was also associated with severe acute graft versus host disease (aGVHD) with a cumulative incidence (CI) of 31% vs. a CI of 14% for combined well-nourished or moderately malnourished group (SGA-A or -B, P = 0.017). In multivariate analysis, SGA-C compared to SGA-A or -B, remained as an independent risk factor for aGVHD (hazard ratio - HR 1.68, 95% confidence interval - 95% CI 1.02-2.74), and nonrelapse mortality (NRM - HR 3.63, 95% CI 1.76-7.46), worse progression free survival (HR 2.12, 95% CI 1.25-3.60), and worse overall survival (HR 3.27, 95% CI 1.90-5.64). CONCLUSION Malnutrition increases the risk of aGVHD and NRM and has a negative impact on survival.

Abstract
The Brazilian Nutritional Consensus in Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation: Elderly was elaborated by nutritionists, nutrologists and hematologists physicians from 15 Brazilians reference centers in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, in order to emphasize the importancy of nutritional status and the body composition during the treatment, as well as the main characteristics related to patient's nutritional assessment. Establishing the consensus, we intended to improve and standardize the nutritional therapy during the hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The Consensus was approved by the Brazilian Society of Bone Marrow Transplantation.
