Risk factors, biomarkers, and mechanisms for persistent inflammation, immunosuppression, and catabolism syndrome (PICS): a systematic review and meta-analysis. Br J Anaesth 2024; 133:538-549. [PMID: 38688799 DOI: 10.1016/j.bja.2024.03.038] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/20/2023] [Revised: 03/05/2024] [Accepted: 03/21/2024] [Indexed: 05/02/2024] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Persistent inflammation, immunosuppression, and catabolism syndrome (PICS) has been proposed as an endotype of chronic critical illness (CCI). The aim of this systematic review is to synthesise the available evidence of risk factors, biomarkers, and biological mechanisms underlying PICS. METHODS MEDLINE, CENTRAL, and EMBASE were searched on June 2, 2023. Our population of interest was adult intensive care unit survivors. The exposure group was patients with PICS and the comparator group was patients with no PICS, CCI, or rapid recovery. Mean differences were pooled for each biomarker using a random effects DerSimonian-Laird method. Risk of bias assessment was done using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. RESULTS Six papers were included. Five were single-centre retrospective cohort studies, and one was a prospective cohort study, with sample sizes ranging from 22 to 391 patients. Two studies showed an increased incidence of PICS with age, and two studies showed an association between PICS and Charlson Comorbidity Index scores. PICS was associated with requiring mechanical ventilation in four studies. Meta-analysis showed a 34.4 mg L-1 higher C-reactive protein (95% confidence interval [CI] 12.7-56.2 mg L-1; P<0.01), a 4.4 g L-1 lower albumin (95% CI 0.5-8.3 g L-1; P<0.01), and a 0.36×109 L-1 lower lymphocyte count (95% CI 0.25-0.47×109 L-1; P=0.01) in the PICS compared with the non-PICS group. There are a large variety of other potential biomarkers but limited validation studies. The overall quality of evidence is limited, and these results should be interpreted accordingly. CONCLUSIONS While older patients and those with co-morbidities could be at greater risk for PICS, acquired risk factors, such as injury severity, are potentially more predictive of PICS than intrinsic patient characteristics. There are many potential biomarkers for PICS, but limited validation studies have been conducted. Persistent myeloid-derived suppressor cell expansion, the continual release of danger-associated molecular patterns and pathogen-associated molecular patterns propagating inflammation, and bioenergetic failure are all mechanisms underlying PICS that could offer potential for novel biomarkers and therapeutic interventions.

Relationship between very early enteral nutrition and persistent inflammation, immunosuppression, and catabolism syndrome in cardiovascular surgery patients: a propensity score-matched study. Am J Clin Nutr 2024:S0002-9165(24)00613-0. [PMID: 39038737 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajcnut.2024.07.016] [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: 02/28/2024] [Revised: 07/11/2024] [Accepted: 07/16/2024] [Indexed: 07/24/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Early enteral nutrition (EN) is recommended for patients with critical illness to maintain intestinal immunity. However, the optimal timing of the commencement of EN remains unclear, particularly after cardiovascular surgery. OBJECTIVES We herein focused on Persistent Inflammation, Immunosuppression, and Catabolism Syndrome (PICS) as a predisposing immunodeficiency and investigated its association with very early EN (VEEN) (<24 h) in patients who underwent cardiovascular surgery. METHODS In this retrospective study, we used an administrative claims database with laboratory examinations between 2008 and 2021 to identify adult patients admitted to the intensive care unit after cardiovascular surgery. Patients who received EN the day after surgery were assigned to the EN <24 h group, whereas those who received EN on day 2 or day 3 were assigned to the control group. The primary outcome was a composite of the incidence of PICS and mortality on day 14 after surgery. We defined PICS as patients who were hospitalized for >14 day and meeting ≥2 of the following conditions: a lymphocyte count <800/μL, albumin <3.0 g/dL, and C-reactive protein >2.0 mg/dL. We compared the 2 groups using propensity score analysis. RESULTS A propensity score matching generated 2082 pairs. The primary outcome was significantly lower in the EN <24 h group than in the control group on days 14 {risk difference [95% confidence interval (CI)]: -3.1% [-5.9%, -0.3%]} and 28 (risk difference [95% CI]: -2.1% [-3.7%, -0.4%]). Mortality did not significantly differ between the 2 groups. The length of hospital stay was significantly shorter in the EN <24 h group: the difference (95% CI) was -2.2 (-3.7, -0.7) d. CONCLUSIONS Among patients who underwent cardiovascular surgery, VEEN provided on the day after surgery was associated with a lower incidence of PICS and a shorter length of hospital stay than EN provided 2 day or 3 day after surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine whether scheduled low-dose, short-term ketorolac modulates cytokine concentrations in orthopaedic polytrauma patients. METHODS DESIGN Secondary analysis of a double-blinded, randomized controlled trial. SETTING Single Level I trauma center from August 2018 to October 2022. PATIENT SELECTION CRITERIA Orthopaedic polytrauma patients between 18 and 75 years with a New Injury Severity Score greater than 9 were enrolled. Participants were randomized to receive 15 mg of intravenous ketorolac every 6 hours for up to 5 inpatient days or 2 mL of intravenous saline similarly. OUTCOME MEASURES AND COMPARISONS Daily concentrations of prostaglandin E2 and interleukin (IL)-1a, IL-1b, IL-6, and IL-10. Clinical outcomes included hospital and intensive care unit length of stay, pulmonary complications, and acute kidney injury. RESULTS Seventy orthopaedic polytrauma patients were enrolled, with 35 participants randomized to the ketorolac group and 35 to the placebo group. The overall IL-10 trend over time was significantly different in the ketorolac group ( P = 0.043). IL-6 was 65.8% higher at enrollment compared to day 3 ( P < 0.001) when aggregated over both groups. There was no significant treatment effect for prostaglandin E2, IL-1a, or IL-1b ( P > 0.05). There were no significant differences in clinical outcomes between groups ( P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Scheduled low-dose, short-term, intravenous ketorolac was associated with significantly different mean trends in IL-10 concentration in orthopaedic polytrauma patients with no significant differences in prostaglandin E2, IL-1a, IL-1b, or IL-6 levels between groups. The treatment did not have an impact on clinical outcomes of hospital or intensive care unit length of stay, pulmonary complications, or acute kidney injury. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Therapeutic Level II.

Breaking barriers in trauma research: A narrative review of opportunities to leverage veterinary trauma for accelerated translation to clinical solutions for pets and people. J Clin Transl Sci 2024; 8:e74. [PMID: 38715566 PMCID: PMC11075112 DOI: 10.1017/cts.2024.513] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2023] [Revised: 03/20/2024] [Accepted: 03/25/2024] [Indexed: 08/10/2024] Open
Abstract
Trauma is a common cause of morbidity and mortality in humans and companion animals. Recent efforts in procedural development, training, quality systems, data collection, and research have positively impacted patient outcomes; however, significant unmet need still exists. Coordinated efforts by collaborative, translational, multidisciplinary teams to advance trauma care and improve outcomes have the potential to benefit both human and veterinary patient populations. Strategic use of veterinary clinical trials informed by expertise along the research spectrum (i.e., benchtop discovery, applied science and engineering, large laboratory animal models, clinical veterinary studies, and human randomized trials) can lead to increased therapeutic options for animals while accelerating and enhancing translation by providing early data to reduce the cost and the risk of failed human clinical trials. Active topics of collaboration across the translational continuum include advancements in resuscitation (including austere environments), acute traumatic coagulopathy, trauma-induced coagulopathy, traumatic brain injury, systems biology, and trauma immunology. Mechanisms to improve funding and support innovative team science approaches to current problems in trauma care can accelerate needed, sustainable, and impactful progress in the field. This review article summarizes our current understanding of veterinary and human trauma, thereby identifying knowledge gaps and opportunities for collaborative, translational research to improve multispecies outcomes. This translational trauma group of MDs, PhDs, and DVMs posit that a common understanding of injury patterns and resulting cellular dysregulation in humans and companion animals has the potential to accelerate translation of research findings into clinical solutions.

Potential Factors Influencing Complete Functional Recovery in Traumatized Unowned Cats with Orthopedic Lesions-A Cohort Study. Vet Sci 2024; 11:59. [PMID: 38393077 PMCID: PMC10892440 DOI: 10.3390/vetsci11020059] [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: 11/19/2023] [Revised: 01/22/2024] [Accepted: 01/25/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
The management of unowned cats is an emerging problem, with public institutions and citizens' concerns regarding their care and arrangement. Little is known regarding the outcome of traumatic orthopedic injuries in these patients. Indeed, complete functional recovery (CFR) should be the goal of treatment for return to their original location or adoption. The aim was to identify clinical factors influencing CFR in traumatized unowned cats with orthopedic lesions. This category of cats referred by the veterinary public service over three years was enrolled. Various clinical variables were retrospectively collected from the medical records and evaluated by nominal logistic analysis. Forty-eight unowned cats were enrolled, with a median estimated age of 24 (1-180) months and a body weight of 3 (0.7-5) kg. Thirty-four (71%) patients reached CFR. Estimated age, body weight, time from trauma to therapeutic intervention, spine involvement, presence of comorbidities, hospitalization time, and the radiographic score results were significantly associated with CFR. A longer time to therapeutic intervention seemed to be associated with a better outcome. Probably, cats severely traumatized did not live long enough to be evaluated and treated. Lighter cats experienced more severe consequences following blunt trauma. Younger and lighter cats bore a higher risk of panleukopenia-related death.

Abstract
With the implementation of new intensive care unit (ICU) therapies in the 1970s, multiple organ failure (MOF) emerged as a fulminant inflammatory phenotype leading to early ICU death. Over the ensuing decades, with fundamental advances in care, this syndrome has evolved into a lingering phenotype of chronic critical illness (CCI) leading to indolent late post-hospital discharge death. In 2012, the University of Florida (UF) Sepsis Critical Illness Research Center (SCIRC) coined the term Persistent Inflammation, Immunosuppression, and Catabolism Syndrome (PICS) to provide a mechanistic framework to study CCI in surgical patients. This was followed by a decade of research into PICS-CCI in surgical ICU patients in order to define the epidemiology, dysregulated immunity, and long-term outcomes after sepsis. Other focused studies were performed in trauma ICU patients and emergency department sepsis patients. Early deaths were surprisingly low (4%); 63% experienced rapid recovery. Unfortunately, 33% progressed to CCI, of which 79% had a poor post-discharge disposition and 41% were dead within one year. These patients had biomarker evidence of PICS, and these biomarkers enhanced clinical prediction models for dismal one-year outcomes. Emergency myelopoiesis appears to play a central role in the observed persistent immune dysregulation that characterizes PICS-CCI. Older patients were especially vulnerable. Disturbingly, over half of the older CCI patients were dead within one year and older CCI survivors remained severely disabled. Although CCI is less frequent (20%) after major trauma, PICS appears to be a valid concept. This review will specifically detail the epidemiology of CCI, PICS biomarkers, effect of site of infection, acute kidney injury, effect on older patients, dysfunctional high-density lipoproteins, sarcopenia/cachexia, emergency myelopoiesis, dysregulated erythropoiesis, and potential therapeutic interventions. A review of UF SCIRC’s research efforts characterizing CCI, PICS biomarkers, effect of site of infection, acute kidney injury, effects on older patients, dysfunctional high-density lipoproteins, sarcopenia/cachexia, emergency myelopoiesis, and dysregulated erythropoiesis.

Abstract
Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is a severe disease with a high prevalence and a 3-15% mortality worldwide, and premature activation of zymogen for any reason is the initial factor for the onset of SAP. Gallstone disease and heavy alcohol consumption are the two most common etiologies of SAP. Persistent inflammation, immunosuppression and catabolism syndrome (PICS) is a life-threatening illness, and there are no effective treatments. The relapse state of PICS mainly leads to high mortality due to septic shock or severe trauma, both of which are dangerous and challenging conditions for clinicians. Thus, it is important for medical staff to identify patients at high risk of PICS and to master the prevention and treatment of PICS in patients with SAP. The present review aims to increase the understanding of the pathogenesis of PICS, produce evidence for PICS diagnosis and highlight clinical treatment for PICS in patients with SAP. With this information, clinical workers could implement standardized and integrated measures at an early stage of SAP to stop its progression to PICS.

Abstract
Background Persistent Inflammation, Immunosuppression, and Catabolism Syndrome (PIICS) is a significant contributor to adverse long-term outcomes in severe trauma patients. Objective The objective of this study was to establish and validate a PIICS predictive model in severe trauma patients, providing a practical tool for early clinical prediction. Patients and methods Adult severe trauma patients with an Injury Severity Score (ISS) of ≥16, admitted between October 2020 and December 2022, were randomly divided into a training set and a validation set in a 7:3 ratio. Patients were classified into PIICS and non-PIICS groups based on diagnostic criteria. LASSO regression was used to select appropriate variables for constructing the prognostic model. A logistic regression model was developed and presented in the form of a nomogram. The performance of the model was evaluated using calibration and ROC curves. Results A total of 215 patients were included, consisting of 155 males (72.1%) and 60 females (27.9%), with a median age of 51 years (range: 38-59). NRS2002, ISS, APACHE II, and SOFA scores were selected using LASSO regression to construct the prognostic model. The AUC of the ROC analysis for the predictive model in the validation set was 0.84 (95% CI 0.72-0.95). The Hosmer-Lemeshow test in the validation set yielded a χ2 value of 14.74, with a value of p of 0.098. Conclusion An accurate and easily implementable PIICS risk prediction model was established. It can enhance risk stratification during hospitalization for severe trauma patients, providing a novel approach for prognostic prediction.

Abstract
Associated with the development of hospital-acquired infections, major traumatic injury results in an immediate and persistent state of systemic immunosuppression, yet the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Detected in the circulation in the minutes, days and weeks following injury, damage associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) are a heterogeneous collection of proteins, lipids and DNA renowned for initiating the systemic inflammatory response syndrome. Suggesting additional immunomodulatory roles in the post-trauma immune response, data are emerging implicating DAMPs as potential mediators of post-trauma immune suppression. Discussing the results of in vitro, in vivo and ex vivo studies, the purpose of this review is to summarise the emerging immune tolerising properties of cytosolic, nuclear and mitochondrial-derived DAMPs. Direct inhibition of neutrophil antimicrobial activities, the induction of endotoxin tolerance in monocytes and macrophages, and the recruitment, activation and expansion of myeloid derived suppressor cells and regulatory T cells are examples of some of the immune suppressive properties assigned to DAMPs so far. Crucially, with studies identifying the molecular mechanisms by which DAMPs promote immune suppression, therapeutic strategies that prevent and/or reverse DAMP-induced immunosuppression have been proposed. Approaches currently under consideration include the use of synthetic polymers, or the delivery of plasma proteins, to scavenge circulating DAMPs, or to treat critically-injured patients with antagonists of DAMP receptors. However, as DAMPs share signalling pathways with pathogen associated molecular patterns, and pro-inflammatory responses are essential for tissue regeneration, these approaches need to be carefully considered in order to ensure that modulating DAMP levels and/or their interaction with immune cells does not negatively impact upon anti-microbial defence and the physiological responses of tissue repair and wound healing.

Development and validation of prediction scores for the outcome associated with persistent inflammation, immunosuppression, and catabolism syndrome among patients with trauma.

Abstract
Background Persistent inflammation, immunosuppression, and catabolism syndrome (PICS) has impacted on long-term prognosis of patients with trauma. We aimed to identify patients with trauma at risk of PICS-related complications early in the intensive care unit (ICU) course. Methods A single-center retrospective cohort study was conducted. All consecutive patients with trauma who had stayed in the ICU for >7 days were included in the study. We developed the prediction score for the incidence of PICS-related outcomes in the derivation cohort for the initial period and then evaluated in the validation cohort for the subsequent period. Other outcomes were also assessed using the score. Results In total, 170 and 133 patients were included in the derivation and validation cohorts, respectively. The prediction score comprised the variables indicating PICS presence, including a maximum value of C-reactive protein >15 mg/dL, minimum value of albumin <2.5 g/dL, and an episode of nosocomial infection for the first 7 days after admission. A score of 1 was assigned to each variable. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the score to predict PICS incidence was 0.74 (95% CI 0.66 to 0.81) and 0.72 (95% CI 0.64 to 0.81) in the derivation and validation cohorts, respectively. The higher score was also significantly associated with a higher Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score at day 14, a longer duration of mechanical ventilation, a longer length of stay in ICU, and experienced multiple episodes of infection. Similar results were obtained in the validation cohort. Conclusions Our scoring system could predict the outcomes associated with PICS among patients with trauma. Because the score comprised the parameters measured for the first 7 days during the ICU course, it could contribute to identifying patients at a high risk of unfavorable outcome earlier. Level of evidence Multivariate prediction models; level IV.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Objective: The aims of this study were to investigate and compare the clinical features and prognosis of chronic critical illness (CCI)/persistent inflammation immunosuppression and catabolism (PICS). Methods: This is a prospective observational clinical study. During this study period, we collect intensive care unit patients' data from Suzhou Municipal Hospital and Suzhou Ninth People's Hospital. All patients older than 18 years were included, and according to the corresponding exclusion and diagnostic criteria, they were divided into four groups: PICS group, CCI group, CCI and PICS group (CCI + PICS), and neither CCI nor PICS group (NCCI + NPICS) and collected and recorded age, sex, hospital time, hospital diagnosis, Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II score, Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score, C-reactive protein, absolute value lymphocyte count, serum albumin, white blood cell count, absolute value neutrophil count, secondary infection, and 28-day case fatality rate separately. Results: A total of 687 patients were admitted to the intensive care unit during the study period. The hospitalization time less than 14 days were excluded, and 168 patients were eventually included. There are 17 in the PICS group, 71 in the CCI group, 50 in the CCI + PICS group, and 30 in the NCCI + NPICS group. Baseline characteristics showed statistically significant differences in Sequential Organ Failure Assessment, length of hospital stay, and 28-day mortality among four groups. Baseline main indicator and multiple comparisons showed that the CCI + PICS group had longer hospital stay, worse prognosis, and more adverse outcomes. Multivariate analysis showed that final age, C-reactive protein on days 14 and 21, and serum albumin on days 1 and 21 had an impact on the prognosis ( P < 0.05). Conclusion: The clinical prognosis of the four groups decreased in order of NCCI + NPICS, CCI, PICS, and CCI + PICS. Our finding of clinically isolated PICS may indicate that PICS acts as an inducement or independent factor to worsen the prognosis of CCI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An emerging body of literature supports the role of individualized prognostic tools to guide the management of patients after trauma. The aim of this study was to develop advanced modeling tools from multidimensional data sources, including immunological analytes and clinical and administrative data, to predict outcomes in trauma patients. METHODS This was a prospective study of trauma patients at Level 1 centers from 2015 to 2019. Clinical, flow cytometry, and serum cytokine data were collected within 48 hours of admission. Sparse logistic regression models were developed, jointly selecting predictors and estimating the risk of ventilator-associated pneumonia, acute kidney injury, complicated disposition (death, rehabilitation, or nursing facility), and return to the operating room. Model parameters (regularization controlling model sparsity) and performance estimation were obtained via nested leave-one-out cross-validation. RESULTS A total of 179 patients were included. The incidences of ventilator-associated pneumonia, acute kidney injury, complicated disposition, and return to the operating room were 17.7%, 28.8%, 22.5%, and 12.3%, respectively. Regarding extensive resource use, 30.7% of patients had prolonged intensive care unit stay, 73.2% had prolonged length of stay, and 23.5% had need for prolonged ventilatory support. The models were developed and cross-validated for ventilator-associated pneumonia, acute kidney injury, complicated dispositions, and return to the operating room, yielding predictive areas under the curve from 0.70 to 0.91. Each model derived its optimal predictive value by combining clinical, administrative, and immunological analyte data. CONCLUSION Clinical, immunological, and administrative data can be combined to predict post-traumatic outcomes and resource use. Multidimensional machine learning modeling can identify trauma patients with complicated clinical trajectories and high resource needs.

Abstract
Sepsis is a life-threatening dysregulated host response to infection that compromises organ health, and abdominal sepsis is a commonly presenting critical illness in intensive care units (ICU). In this study, we investigate the effect of age on clinical sepsis characteristics and innate immune cells (neutrophils and monocytes) functionality in abdominal sepsis patients. We recruited 32 patients with abdominal sepsis from the Beijing Ditan Hospital’s ICU from February 2021 to September 2021, and selected 18 healthy volunteers that were age- and sex-matched as controls for a prospective cohort study. Elderly abdominal sepsis patients (age >65 years) had the following altered characteristics compared to nonelderly patient controls: lower mean arterial pressure, monocytes percentage, and red blood cell volume distribution width (p < 0.05); higher neutrophils percentage and neutrophils-to-lymphocytes ratio (p < 0.05); significantly increased monocyte-produced reactive oxygen (p < 0.05); increases neutrophilic secretion of TNF-α, as well as lower monocytic secretion of TNF-α (p < 0.05); higher neutrophil percentage (which was significantly higher in peripheral blood than monocyte percentage). Elderly patients also had significantly increased phagocytic activity in their neutrophils and monocytes (p < 0.05), significantly reduced neutrophils-produced reactive oxygen (p < 0.001), and significantly increased TNF-α secretion by monocytes and neutrophils (p < 0.05). We found that elderly patients have decreased immune cell function and increased release of cytokines compared to younger patients, suggesting individualized treatment plans targeting the elderly septic microenvironment could help prevent organ failure in elderly septic patients and improves patient survival.

Abstract
Background Despite the advances in burn care, severe burns still impose significant morbidity and mortality. Severe burns are associated with an inflammatory response that ranges from alterations in vital signs to shock, multiorgan failure, and death. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are known for their anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects. Therefore, MSCs were investigated for their potential benefits in modulating burn-induced inflammation and organ damage in several studies. Aim We have conducted a systematic review of the literature to evaluate the efficacy of MSCs in modulating burn-induced systemic inflammation and organ damage in animal models. Methods Four databases were searched: PubMed, Cumulative Index of Nursing and Allied Health Literature, Scopus, and Web of Science. We used the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis as our basis of organization. Results Eight studies were included in the study. Bone marrow derived MSCs, umbilical cord derived MSCs (UC-MSCs), and UC-MSCs exosomes were used to modulate the burn-induced inflammation. MSCs therapy reduced serum levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, improved renal function, inhibited tissue damage, and improved survival after burn. Furthermore, MSCs reversed all the burn-induced pathological changes in blood brain barrier (BBB). Conclusion MSCs may attenuate the burn-induced inflammation by decreasing serum levels of inflammatory cytokines. However, the effect on anti-inflammatory cytokines is conflicting and mandates more substantial evidence. Furthermore, MSCs reduce tissue inflammation, tissue damage, and apoptosis in the lungs and kidneys. In addition, MSCs reversed the burn-induced pathophysiologic changes in the BBB. The underlying mechanisms of these effects are poorly understood and should be the focus of future stem cell research. Relevance to Patients Severe burn patients are liable to systemic inflammation due to the release of inflammatory cytokines into the circulation. This inflammatory response has a broad spectrum of severity that ranges from alterations in vital signs to multiorgan failure and death. Despite the advances in burn care, burn-induced inflammation still imposes significant morbidity and mortality. This systematic review evaluates the potential benefits of stem cells in modulating burn-induced systemic inflammation in animal burn models.

Abstract
Owing to the development of intensive care units, many patients survive their initial insults but progress to chronic critical illness (CCI). Patients with CCI are characterized by prolonged hospitalization, poor outcomes, and significant long-term mortality. Some of these patients get into a state of persistent low-grade inflammation, suppressed immunity, and ongoing catabolism, which was defined as persistent inflammation, immunosuppression, and catabolism syndrome (PICS) in 2012. Over the past few years, some progress has been made in the treatment of PICS. However, most of the existing studies are about the role of persistent inflammation and suppressed immunity in PICS. As one of the hallmarks of PICS, hypercatabolism has received little research attention. In this review, we explore the potential pathophysiological changes and molecular mechanisms of hypercatabolism and its role in PICS. In addition, we summarize current therapies for improving the hypercatabolic status and recommendations for patients with PICS.

Abstract
Traumatic injury is the leading cause of mortality in patients under 50. It is associated with a complex inflammatory response involving hormonal, immunologic, and metabolic mediators. The marked elevation of cytokines and inflammatory mediators subsequently correlates with the development of posttraumatic complications. The aim was to determine whether elevated cytokine levels provide a predictive value for orthopedic trauma patients. A prospective cohort study of patients with New Injury Severity Score (NISS) > 5 was undertaken. IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, and migration inhibitory factor levels were measured within 24-h of presentation. Demographic covariates and clinical outcomes were obtained from the medical records. Fifty-eight patients (83% male, 40 years) were included. Addition of IL-6 to baseline models significantly improved prediction of pulmonary complication (LR = 6.21, p = 0.01), ICU (change in R2 = 0.31, p < 0.01), and hospital length of stay (change in R2 = 0.16, p < 0.01). The addition of IL-8 significantly improved the prediction of acute kidney injury (LR = 9.15, p < 0.01). The addition of postinjury IL-6 level to baseline New Injury Severity Score model is better able to predict the occurrence of pulmonary complications as well as prolonged ICU and hospital length of stay.

Multiple Organ Dysfunction in Older Major Trauma Critical Care Patients: A Multicenter Prospective Observational Study. ANNALS OF SURGERY OPEN 2022; 3:e174. [PMID: 36936724 PMCID: PMC10013163 DOI: 10.1097/as9.0000000000000174] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2022] [Accepted: 05/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022] Open
Abstract
The objective was to explore the characteristics and outcomes of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) in older trauma patients. Background Severely injured older people present an increasing challenge for trauma systems. Recovery for those who require critical care may be complicated by MODS. In older trauma patients, MODS may not be predictable based on chronological age alone and factors associated with its development and resolution are unclear. Methods Consecutive adult patients (aged ≥16 years) admitted to 4 level 1 major trauma center critical care units were enrolled and reviewed daily until discharge or death. MODS was defined by a daily total sequential organ failure assessment score of >5. Results One thousand three hundred sixteen patients were enrolled over 18 months and one-third (434) were aged ≥65 years. Incidence of MODS was high for both age groups (<65 years: 64%, ≥65 years: 70%). There were few differences in severity, patterns, and duration of MODS between cohorts, except for older traumatic brain injury (TBI) patients who experienced a prolonged course of MODS recovery (TBI: 9 days vs no TBI: 5 days, P < 0.01). Frailty rather than chronological age had a strong association with MODS development (odds ratio [OR], 6.9; 95% confidence intervals [CI], 3.0-12.4; P < 0.001) and MODS mortality (OR, 2.1; 95% CI, 1.31-3.38; P = 0.02). Critical care resource utilization was not increased in older patients, but MODS had a substantial impact on mortality (<65 years: 17%; ≥65 years: 28%). The majority of older patients who did not develop MODS survived and had favorable discharge outcomes (home discharge ≥65 years NoMODS: 50% vs MODS: 15%; P < 0.01). Conclusions Frailty rather than chronological age appears to drive MODS development, recovery, and outcome in older cohorts. Early identification of frailty after trauma may help to predict MODS and plan care in older trauma.

Abstract
Background For patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) with sepsis, mobilization therapy during ICU stay can improve their outcomes during and after the ICU stay. However, little is known about the optimal timing of introducing mobilization therapy. Methods This is a retrospective cohort study using data from a tertiary medical center in Japan during 2013–2017. We included patients aged ≥ 18 years who were admitted to the ICU with sepsis based on the Sepsis-3 criteria. We defined early mobilization (EM) as the rehabilitation at the level of sitting on the edge of the bed or more within the first 3 days of the patients’ ICU stay. Patients were divided into the EM and non-EM groups. The primary outcomes were in-hospital mortality and ambulatory dependence at hospital discharge. We estimated the effects of EM by stabilized inverse probability weighting (sIPW). We then tested alternative definitions of EM by changing the cutoff in days to mobilization by 1-day increments from 2 to 7 days to investigate the optimal timing of mobilization. Results Our study sample consisted of a total of 296 septic patients, including 96 patients in the EM group and 200 patients in the non-EM group. In the sIPW model, the adjusted OR for in-hospital mortality in the EM group compared to the non-EM group was 0.22 [95% CI 0.06–0.88], and the adjusted OR for ambulatory dependence at the hospital discharge was 0.24 [95% CI 0.09–0.61]. When alternative definitions of EM were tested, patients who achieved mobilization within the first 2–4 days of their ICU stays had better outcomes. Conclusions Achieving mobilization within the first 3 days of ICU stay was significantly associated with better outcomes. Patients with sepsis might benefit most from achieving mobilization within 2–4 days. Further studies are warranted to validate the findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Severe trauma is associated with severe systemic inflammation and neuroendocrine activation that is associated with erythroid progenitor growth suppression and refractory anemia. Although distinct transcriptional profiles have been detected in numerous tissue types after trauma, no study has yet characterized this within the bone marrow. This study sought to identify a unique bone marrow transcriptomic response following trauma. METHODS In a prospective observational cohort study, bone marrow was obtained from severely injured trauma patients with a hip or femur fracture (n = 52), elective hip replacement patients (n = 33), and healthy controls (n = 11). RNA was isolated from bone marrow using a Purelink RNA mini kit. Direct quantification of mRNA copies was performed by NanoString Technologies on a custom gene panel. RESULTS Trauma patients displayed an upregulation of genes encoding receptors known to have inhibitory downstream effects on erythropoiesis, including ferroportin, interleukin-6 (IL-6) receptor, transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) receptor, and IL-10, as well as genes involved in innate immunity including toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)-mediated signaling factors. In contrast, hip replacement patients had downregulated transcription of IL-1β, IL-6, TGF-β, tumor necrosis factor alpha, and the HAMP gene with no change in TLR4-mediated signaling factors. CONCLUSIONS A unique transcriptomic response within the bone marrow was identified following severe trauma compared to elective hip replacement. These transcriptomic differences were related to the innate immune response as well as known inhibitors of erythropoiesis. Although confined to just one time point, this differential transcriptional response may be linked to refractory anemia and inflammation after injury.

Abstract
SUMMARY Optimal timing and procedure selection that define staged treatment strategies can affect outcomes dramatically and remain an area of major debate in the treatment of multiply injured orthopaedic trauma patients. Decisions regarding timing and choice of orthopaedic procedure(s) are currently based on the physiologic condition of the patient, resource availability, and the expected magnitude of the intervention. Surgical decision-making algorithms rarely rely on precision-type data that account for demographics, magnitude of injury, and the physiologic/immunologic response to injury on a patient-specific basis. This study is a multicenter prospective investigation that will work toward developing a precision medicine approach to managing multiply injured patients by incorporating patient-specific indices that quantify (1) mechanical tissue damage volume; (2) cumulative hypoperfusion; (3) immunologic response; and (4) demographics. These indices will formulate a precision injury signature, unique to each patient, which will be explored for correspondence to outcomes and response to surgical interventions. The impact of the timing and magnitude of initial and staged surgical interventions on patient-specific physiologic and immunologic responses will be evaluated and described. The primary goal of the study will be the development of data-driven models that will inform clinical decision-making tools that can be used to predict outcomes and guide intervention decisions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Polytrauma patients are at risk for fracture nonunion, but the reasons are poorly understood. Increased base deficit (BD) is associated with hypovolemic shock. Although shock delays bone healing in animal models, there have been no clinical studies evaluating the impact of BD on nonunion risk. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients age ≥ 16 with injury severity score > 16 that presented to an academic Level One trauma center with an operative femur or tibia fracture were reviewed. Clinical notes and radiographs were assessed to determine fracture healing status. Patient demographics, injury characteristics, BD, and number of packed red blood cell transfusions were recorded. Bivariate and multivariate analyses of multiple risk factors associated with nonunion were conducted to investigate the association of BD with nonunion. RESULTS The union group was comprised of 243 fractures; there were 36 fractures in the nonunion group. The following predictors were associated with nonunion: smoking (p = 0.009), alcohol use (p < 0.001), open fracture (p < 0.001), and treatment for deep infection at fracture site (p = 0.016). Additionally, worst BD over 24 h ≥ 6 (p = 0.031) was significant for nonunion development. A multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed worst BD ≥6 over 24 h remained significantly associated with the development of nonunion (odds ratio 3.02, p = 0.011) when adjusting for other risk factors. CONCLUSIONS A BD ≥ 6 within 24 h of admission was associated with a significantly increased risk of developing lower extremity fracture nonunion in polytrauma patients, even after adjusting for multiple other risk factors. Acute post-traumatic acidosis may have effects on long-term fracture healing.

Abstract
Objective To find the predictors for persistent inflammation-immunosuppression catabolism syndrome in ICU surgical septic patients. Design Single center observation study. Participants Inclusion: 1) patients ≥18, 2) admitted to the ICU after major surgery or transferred to the ICU within 48 hours after the diagnosis of sepsis following the definition of sepsis-3.0. Exclusion: 1) pregnant or lactating patients, 2) patients with severe immune deficiency, 3) patients that expired within 14 days after the diagnosis of sepsis. Results A total of 169 participants were included. After propensity score matching, PICS patients were found to have higher intensive care unit (ICU) mortality (32.4% vs 12.4%, p=0.046), 90-day mortality (32.4% vs 9.1%, p=0.006), and ICU-acquired infection rate (44.1% vs 12.7%, p<0.001), and longer ICU stays (29 vs 11 days, p<0.001) comparing to non-PICS patients. In multivariate logistic regression, it demonstrated that the SOFA score, Charlson co-morbidity index (CCI), albumin level on the ICU day 1, and lymphocyte count on the ICU day 3 were statistically significant. Sensitivity analysis was conducted with the receiver operating characteristic curve for a combination of the four parameters and the area under the curve was 0.838 (95% confidence interval 0.774–0.901). Conclusion The chronic disease condition and decreased immunity in the early course of sepsis were crucial for PICS. The combination of CCI, SOFA score, albumin level on ICU Day 1 and lymphocyte count on ICU Day 3 can be early predictor for PICS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postintensive care syndrome (PICS) has been identified in a large proportion of medical intensive care unit survivors; however, the occurrence surgical intensive care unit (SICU) survivors is unknown. We implemented a multidisciplinary critical care outpatient clinic (CCOC) to identify the occurrence of PICS in SICU survivors. METHODS Seventy acute care surgery and trauma patients, 18 years or older, who remained in the SICU for 72 hours or longer at a Level I trauma center were seen in CCOC at 2 weeks, 12 weeks, and 24 weeks after hospital discharge. The CCOC staffing included a nurse coordinator, social worker, critical care pharmacist, physical therapist, and acute care surgeon who identified PICS sequelae in their respective specialties by clinical criteria and screening questionnaires. RESULTS Of 82 eligible patients, 70 (85.4%) were seen at least once for 116 total visits. Forty-three (61.4%) patients suffered traumatic injuries and 27 (38.6%) underwent emergent general surgery. Sixty-seven (95.7%) demonstrated at least one PICS criterion. Over all visits, 26 (37.1%) patients presented with one PICS criterion, 24 (34.3%) patients with two, and 17 (24.3%) with three. Cognitive impairment was observed in 29 (41.4%) patients, psychiatric in 30 (42.9%), and physical symptoms in 65 (92.9%). Activity Measure for Post-Acute Care scores improved from severe impairment at admission to full function by 12 weeks postdischarge, yet 6 Minute Walk Test scores remained below age-matched references through all visits. Patients expressed mild to moderate depression based on Patient Health Questionnaire-9 scores. A medication reconciliation was completed at 96.5% (112/116) of the visits with 116 total medication recommendations. By 24 weeks following discharge, only 26.4% (14/53) of previously employed patients had resumed work. CONCLUSION Through the successful implementation of a multidisciplinary CCOC, this study identifies an exorbitant rate of PICS among SICU survivors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Necrotizing soft tissue infections (NSTIs) are an acute surgical condition with high morbidity and mortality. Timely identification, resuscitation, and aggressive surgical management have significantly decreased inpatient mortality. However, reduced inpatient mortality has shifted the burden of disease to long-term mortality associated with persistent organ dysfunction. METHODS We performed a combined analysis of NSTI patients from the AB103 Clinical Composite Endpoint Study in Necrotizing Soft Tissue Infections randomized-controlled interventional trial (ATB-202) and comprehensive administrative database (ATB-204) to determine the association of persistent organ dysfunction on inpatient and long-term outcomes. Persistent organ dysfunction was defined as a modified Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (mSOFA) score of 2 or greater at Day 14 (D14) after NSTI diagnosis, and resolution of organ dysfunction defined as mSOFA score of 1 or less. RESULTS The analysis included 506 hospitalized NSTI patients requiring surgical debridement, including 247 from ATB-202, and 259 from ATB-204. In both study cohorts, age and comorbidity burden were higher in the D14 mSOFA ≥2 group. Patients with D14 mSOFA score of 1 or less had significantly lower 90-day mortality than those with mSOFA score of 2 or higher in both ATB-202 (2.4% vs. 21.5%; p < 0.001) and ATB-204 (6% vs. 16%: p = 0.008) studies. In addition, in an adjusted covariate analysis of the combined study data sets D14 mSOFA score of 1 or lesss was an independent predictor of lower 90-day mortality (odds ratio, 0.26; 95% confidence interval, 0.13-0.53; p = 0.001). In both studies, D14 mSOFA score of 1 or less was associated with more favorable discharge status and decreased resource utilization. CONCLUSION For patients with NSTI undergoing surgical management, persistent organ dysfunction at 14 days, strongly predicts higher resource utilization, poor discharge disposition, and higher long-term mortality. Promoting the resolution of acute organ dysfunction after NSTI should be considered as a target for investigational therapies to improve long-term outcomes after NSTI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to identify the effects of recent innovations in trauma major hemorrhage management on outcome and transfusion practice, and to determine the contemporary timings and patterns of death. BACKGROUND The last 10 years have seen a research-led change in hemorrhage management to damage control resuscitation (DCR), focused on the prevention and treatment of trauma-induced coagulopathy. METHODS A 10-year retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data of trauma patients who activated the Major Trauma Centre's major hemorrhage protocol (MHP) and received at least 1 unit of red blood cell transfusions (RBC). RESULTS A total of 1169 trauma patients activated the MHP and received at least 1 unit of RBC, with similar injury and admission physiology characteristics over the decade. Overall mortality declined from 45% in 2008 to 27% in 2017, whereas median RBC transfusion rates dropped from 12 to 4 units (massive transfusion rates from 68% to 24%). The proportion of deaths within 24 hours halved (33%-16%), principally with a fall in mortality between 3 and 24 hours (30%-6%). Survivors are now more likely to be discharged to their own home (57%-73%). Exsanguination is still the principal cause of early deaths, and the mortality associated with massive transfusion remains high (48%). Late deaths are now split between those due to traumatic brain injury (52%) and multiple organ dysfunction (45%). CONCLUSIONS There have been remarkable reductions in mortality after major trauma hemorrhage in recent years. Mortality rates continue to be high and there remain important opportunities for further improvements in these patients.

Chronic Critical Illness and PICS Nutritional Strategies. J Clin Med 2021; 10:jcm10112294.

Abstract
The nutritional hallmark of chronic critical illness (CCI) after sepsis is persistent inflammation, immunosuppression, and catabolism syndrome (PICS), which results in global resistance to the anabolic effect of nutritional supplements. This ultimately leaves these patients in a downward phenotypic spiral characterized by cachexia with profound weakness, decreased capacity for rehabilitation, and immunosuppression with the propensity for sepsis recidivism. The persistent catabolism is driven by a pathologic low-grade inflammation with the inability to return to homeostasis and by ongoing increased energy expenditure. Better critical care support systems and advances in technology have led to increased intensive care unit (ICU) survival, but CCI due to PICS with poor long-term outcomes has emerged as a frequent phenotype among ICU sepsis survivors. Unfortunately, therapies to mitigate or reverse PICS-CCI are limited, and recent evidence supports that these patients fail to respond to early ICU evidence-based nutrition protocols. A lack of randomized controlled trials has limited strong recommendations for nutrition adjuncts in these patients. However, based on experience in other conditions characterized by a similar phenotype, immunonutrients aimed at counteracting inflammation, immunosuppression, and catabolism may be important for improving outcomes in PICS-CCI patients. This manuscript intends to review several immunonutrients as adjunctive therapies in treating PICS-CCI.

Abstract
Platelets are damage sentinels of the intravascular compartment, initiating and coordinating the primary response to tissue injury. Severe trauma and hemorrhage induce profound alterations in platelet behavior. During the acute post-injury phase, platelets develop a state of impaired ex vivo agonist responsiveness independent of platelet count, associated with systemic coagulopathy and mortality risk. In patients surviving the initial insult, platelets become hyper-responsive, associated with increased risk of thrombotic events. Beyond coagulation, platelets constitute part of a sterile inflammatory response to injury: both directly through release of immunomodulatory molecules, and indirectly through modifying behavior of innate leukocytes. Both procoagulant and proinflammatory aspects have implications for secondary organ injury and multiple-organ dysfunction syndromes. This review details our current understanding of adaptive and maladaptive alterations in platelet biology induced by severe trauma, mechanisms underlying these alterations, potential platelet-focused therapies, and existing knowledge gaps and their research implications.

Abstract
Bone nonunions arising from large bone defects and composite injuries remain compelling challenges for orthopedic surgeons. Biological changes associated with nonunions, such as systemic immune dysregulation, can contribute to an adverse healing environment. Bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2), an osteoinductive and potentially immunomodulatory growth factor, is a promising strategy; however, burst release from the clinical standard collagen sponge delivery vehicle can result in adverse side effects such as heterotopic ossification (HO) and irregular bone structure, especially when using supraphysiological BMP-2 doses for complex injuries at high risk for nonunion. To address this challenge, biomaterials that strongly bind BMP-2, such as heparin methacrylamide microparticles (HMPs), may be used to limit exposure and spatially constrain proteins within the injury site. Here, we investigate moderately high dose BMP-2 delivered in HMPs within an injectable hydrogel system in two challenging nonunion models exhibiting characteristics of systemic immune dysregulation. The HMP delivery system increased total bone volume and decreased peak HO compared to collagen sponge delivery of the same BMP-2 dose. Multivariate analyses of systemic immune markers showed the collagen sponge group correlated with markers that are hallmarks of systemic immune dysregulation, including immunosuppressive myeloid-derived suppressor cells, whereas the HMP groups were associated with immune effector cells, including T cells, and cytokines linked to robust bone regeneration. Overall, our results demonstrate that HMP delivery of moderately high doses of BMP-2 promotes repair of complex bone nonunion injuries and that local delivery strategies for potent growth factors like BMP-2 may positively affect the systemic immune response to traumatic injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multiorgan failure is a consequence of severe ischemia-reperfusion injury after traumatic hemorrhagic shock (HS), a major cause of mortality in trauma patients. Circulating uric acid (UA), released from cell lysis, is known to activate proinflammatory and proapoptotic pathways and has been associated with poor clinical outcomes among critically ill patients. Our group has recently shown a mediator role for UA in kidney and lung injury, but its role in liver and enteric damage after HS remains undefined. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the role of UA on liver and enteric injury after resuscitated HS. METHODS A murine model of resuscitated HS was treated during resuscitation with a recombinant uricase, a urate oxidase enzyme (rasburicase; Sanofi-Aventis, Canada Inc, Laval, Canada), to metabolize and reduce circulating UA. Biochemical analyses (liver enzymes, liver apoptotic, and inflammatory markers) were performed at 24 hours and 72 hours after HS. Physiological testing for enteric permeability and gut bacterial product translocation measurement (plasma endotoxin) were performed 72 hours after HS. In vitro, HT-29 cells were exposed to UA, and the expression of intercellular adhesion proteins (ZO-1, E-cadherin) was measured to evaluate the influence of UA on enteric permeability. RESULTS The addition of uricase to resuscitation significantly reduced circulating and liver UA levels after HS. It also prevented HS-induced hepatolysis and liver apoptotic/inflammatory mediators at 24 hours and 72 hours. Hemorrhagic shock-induced enteric hyperpermeability and endotoxemia were prevented with uricase. CONCLUSIONS After resuscitated HS, UA is an important mediator in liver and enteric injury. Uric acid represents a therapeutic target to minimize organ damage in polytrauma patients sustaining HS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The 2018 Lipids in Parenteral Nutrition summit involved a panel of experts in clinical nutrition, lipid metabolism, and pharmacology, to assess the current state of knowledge and develop expert consensus statements regarding the use of intravenous lipid emulsions in various patient populations and clinical settings. The main purpose of the consensus statements is to assist healthcare professionals by providing practical guidance on common clinical questions related to the provision of lipid emulsions as part of parenteral nutrition (PN). METHODS The summit was designed to allow interactive discussion and consensus development. The resulting consensus statements represent the collective opinion of the members of the expert panel, which was informed and supported by scientific evidence and clinical experience. RESULTS The current article summarizes the key discussion topics from the summit and provides a set of consensus statements designed to complement existing evidence-based guidelines. Lipid emulsions are a major component of PN, serving as a condensed source of energy and essential fatty acids. In addition, lipids modulate a variety of biologic functions, including inflammatory and immune responses, coagulation, and cell signaling. A growing body of evidence suggests that lipid emulsions containing ω-3 fatty acids from fish oil confer important clinical benefits via suppression of inflammatory mediators and activation of pathways involved in the resolution of inflammation. CONCLUSIONS This article provides a set of expert consensus statements to complement formal PN guideline recommendations.

Abstract
In hospitalized patients, lipid emulsions are an integral part of balanced parenteral nutrition. Traditionally, a single lipid source, soybean oil, has been given to patients and was usually regarded as just a source of energy and to prevent essential fatty-acid deficiency. However, mixtures of different lipid emulsions have now become widely available, including mixtures of soybean oil, medium-chain triglycerides, olive oil, and fish oil. Fish oil is high in the ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). There is a growing body of evidence that these ω-3 fatty acids can exert beneficial immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, and inflammation-resolution effects across a wide range of patient groups including surgical, cancer, and critically ill patients. At least in part, these effects are realized via potent specialized pro-resolution mediators (SPMs). Moreover, parenteral nutrition including ω-3 fatty acids can result in additional clinical benefits over the use of standard lipid emulsions, such as reductions in infection rates and length of hospital and intensive care unit stay. Clinical and experimental evidence is reviewed regarding lipid emulsion use in a variety of hospitalized patient groups, including surgical, critically ill, sepsis, trauma, and acute pancreatitis patients. Practical aspects of lipid emulsion use in critically ill patients are also considered, such as how to determine and fulfill energy expenditure, how and when to consider parenteral nutrition, duration of infusion, and safety monitoring.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multiply injured patients (MIPs) are at risk of complications including infections, and acute and prolonged organ dysfunction. The immunologic response to injury has been shown to affect outcomes. Recent advances in computational capabilities have shown that early dynamic coordination of the immunologic response is associated with improved outcomes after trauma. We hypothesized that patients who were sensitive or tolerant of hemorrhage would demonstrate differences in dynamic immunologic orchestration within hours of injury. METHODS We identified two groups of MIPs who demonstrated distinct clinical tolerance to hemorrhage (n = 10) or distinct clinical sensitivity to hemorrhage (n = 9) from a consecutive cohort of 100 MIPs. Hemorrhage was quantified by integrating elevated shock index values for 24 hours after injury (shock volume). Clinical outcomes were quantified by average Marshall Organ Dysfunction Scores from days 2 to 5 after injury. Shock-sensitive patients had high cumulative organ dysfunction after lower magnitude hemorrhage. Shock-tolerant (ST) patients had low cumulative organ dysfunction after higher magnitude hemorrhage. Computational methods were used to analyze a panel of 20 immunologic mediators collected serially over the initial 72 hours after injury. RESULTS Dynamic network analysis demonstrated the ST patients had increased orchestration of cytokines that are reparative and protective including interleukins 9, 17E/25, 21, 22, 23, and 33 during the initial 0- to 8-hour and 8- to 24-hour intervals after injury. Shock-sensitive patients had delayed immunologic orchestration of a network of largely proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory mediators. Elastic net linear regression demonstrated that a group of five mediators could discriminate between shock-sensitive and ST patients. CONCLUSIONS Preliminary evidence from this study suggests that early immunologic orchestration discriminates between patients who are notably tolerant or sensitive to hemorrhage. Early orchestration of a group of reparative/protective mediators was amplified in shock-tolerant patients. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Prospective clinical outcomes study, level III.

Abstract
Background Recently, identification of immunosuppressive polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNL) that were traditionally described as proinflammatory cells emerged in the field of posttraumatic immunity. To understand their local and remote distribution after trauma, PMNL-subsets and the impact of immunomodulatory Club Cell protein (CC)16 that correlates with pulmonary complications were assessed. Methods C57BL/6N mice were divided into three groups, receiving isolated blunt chest trauma (TxT), undergoing TxT followed by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP, TxT + CLP) after 24 h, or sham undergoing analgosedation (n = 18/group). Further, each group was subdivided into three groups receiving either no treatment (ctrl) or intratracheal neutralization of CC16 by application of anti-CC16-antibody or application of an unspecific IgG control antibody (n = 6/group). Treatment was set at the time point after TxT. Analyses followed 6 h post-CLP. PMNL were characterized via expression of CD11b, CD16, CD45, CD62L, and Ly6G by flow cytometry in bone marrow (BM), blood, spleen, lung, liver, and bronchoalveolar and peritoneal lavage fluid (BALF and PL). Apoptosis was assessed by activated (cleaved) caspase-3. Results from untreated ctrl and IgG-treated mice were statistically comparable between all corresponding sham, TxT, and TxT + CLP groups. Results Immature (CD16dimCD62Lbright) PMNL increased significantly in BM, circulation, and spleen after TxT vs. sham and were significantly attenuated in the lungs, BALF, PL, and liver. Classical-shaped (CD16brightCD62Lbright) PMNL increased after TxT vs. sham in peripheral tissue and were significantly attenuated in circulation, proposing a trauma-induced migration of mature or peripheral differentiation of circulating immature PMNL. Immunosuppressive (CD16brightCD62Ldim) PMNL decreased significantly in the lungs and spleen, while they systemically increased after TxT vs. sham. CLP in the TxT + CLP group reduced immunosuppressive PMNL in PL and increased their circulatory rate vs. isolated TxT, showing local reduction in affected tissue and their increase in nonaffected tissue. CC16 neutralization enhanced the fraction of immunosuppressive PMNL following TxT vs. sham and decreased caspase-3 in the lungs post-CLP in the TxT + CLP group, while apoptotic cells in the liver diminished post-TxT. Posttraumatic CC16 neutralization promotes the subset of immunosuppressive PMNL and antagonizes their posttraumatic distribution. Conclusion Since CC16 affects both the distribution of PMNL subsets and apoptosis in tissues after trauma, it may constitute as a novel target to beneficially shape the posttraumatic tissue microenvironment and homeostasis to improving outcomes.

Abstract
Orthopedic biomaterial-associated infections remain a major clinical challenge, with Staphylococcus aureus being the most common pathogen. S. aureus biofilm formation enhances immune evasion and antibiotic resistance, resulting in a local, indolent infection that can persist long-term without symptoms before eventual hardware failure, bone non-union, or sepsis. Immune modulation is an emerging strategy to combat host immune evasion by S. aureus. However, most immune modulation strategies are focused on local immune responses at the site of infection, with little emphasis on understanding the infection-induced and orthopedic-related systemic immune responses of the host, and their role in local infection clearance and tissue regeneration. This study utilized a rat bone defect model to investigate how implant-associated infection affects the systemic immune response. Long-term systemic immune dysregulation was observed with a significant systemic decrease in T cells and a concomitant increase in immunosuppressive myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) compared to non-infected controls. Further, the control group exhibited a regulated and coordinated systemic cytokine response, which was absent in the infection group. Multivariate analysis revealed high levels of MDSCs to be most correlated with the infection group, while high levels of T cells were most correlated with the control group. Locally, the infection group had attenuated macrophage infiltration and increased levels of MDSCs in the local soft tissue compared to non-infected controls. These data reveal the widespread impacts of an orthopedic infection on both the local and the systemic immune responses, uncovering promising targets for diagnostics and immunotherapies that could optimize treatment strategies and ultimately improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Following trauma, persistent inflammation, immunosuppression, and catabolism may characterize delayed recovery or failure to recover. Understanding the metabolic response associated with these adverse outcomes may facilitate earlier identification and intervention. We characterized the metabolic profiles of trauma victims who died or developed chronic critical illness (CCI) and hypothesized that differences would be evident within 1-week postinjury. METHODS Venous blood samples from trauma victims with shock who survived at least 7 days were analyzed using mass spectrometry. Subjects who died or developed CCI (intensive care unit length of stay of ≥14 days with persistent organ dysfunction) were compared with subjects who recovered rapidly (intensive care unit length of stay, ≤7 days) and uninjured controls. We used partial least squares discriminant analysis, t tests, linear mixed effects regression, and pathway enrichment analyses to make broad comparisons and identify differences in metabolite concentrations and pathways. RESULTS We identified 27 patients who died or developed CCI and 33 who recovered rapidly. Subjects were predominantly male (65%) with a median age of 53 years and Injury Severity Score of 36. Healthy controls (n = 48) had similar age and sex distributions. Overall, from the 163 metabolites detected in the samples, 56 metabolites and 21 pathways differed between injury outcome groups, and partial least squares discriminant analysis models distinguished injury outcome groups as early as 1-day postinjury. Differences were observed in tryptophan, phenylalanine, and tyrosine metabolism; metabolites associated with oxidative stress via methionine metabolism; inflammatory mediators including kynurenine, arachidonate, and glucuronic acid; and products of the gut microbiome including indole-3-propionate. CONCLUSIONS The metabolic profiles in subjects who ultimately die or develop CCI differ from those who have recovered. In particular, we have identified differences in markers of inflammation, oxidative stress, amino acid metabolism, and alterations in the gut microbiome. Targeted metabolomics has the potential to identify important metabolic changes postinjury to improve early diagnosis and targeted intervention. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Prognostic/epidemiologic, level III.

Enigmatic role of coagulopathy among sepsis survivors: a review of coagulation abnormalities and their possible link to chronic critical illness. Trauma Surg Acute Care Open 2020; 5:e000462. [PMID: 33094168 PMCID: PMC7570228 DOI: 10.1136/tsaco-2020-000462] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/25/2020] [Revised: 08/27/2020] [Accepted: 09/14/2020] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
There are sparse clinical data addressing the persistence of disordered coagulation in sepsis and its role in chronic critical illness. Coagulopathy in the absence of anticoagulant therapy and/or liver disease can be highly variable in sepsis, but it tends to be prolonged in patients in the intensive care unit with a length of stay greater than 14 days. These coagulation abnormalities tend to precede multisystem organ failure and persistence of these coagulation derangements can predict 28-day mortality. The studies evaluated in this review consistently link sepsis-associated coagulopathy to poor long-term outcomes and indicate that disordered coagulation is associated with unfavorable outcomes in chronic critical illness. However, the causative mechanism and the definitive link remain unclear. Longer follow-up and more granular data will be required to fully understand coagulopathy in the context of chronic critical illness.

Persistent inflammation, immunosuppression and catabolism syndrome (PICS) in critically ill children is associated with clinical outcomes: a prospective longitudinal study. J Hum Nutr Diet 2020; 34:365-373. [PMID: 32767403 DOI: 10.1111/jhn.12798] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2020] [Revised: 06/26/2020] [Accepted: 06/30/2020] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Persistent inflammation, immunosuppression and catabolism syndrome (PICS) has been described in critically ill adults and may contribute to unfavourable outcomes. The present study aimed to describe and characterise PICS in critically ill children (PICS-ped) and to verify its association with clinical outcomes. METHODS A prospective longitudinal study was conducted in a paediatric intensive care unit (PICU) with children aged between 3 months and 15 years. PICS-ped, based on adult definition, was described. PICS-ped was defined as PICU length of stay >14 days; C-reactive protein > 10.0 mg L-1 ; lymphocytes <25%; and any reduction of mid-upper arm circumference Z-score. Clinical, demographic, nutritional status, nutrition therapy parameters and clinical outcomes were assessed. Statistical analysis comprised Mann-Whitney and Fisher's chi-squared tests, as well as logistic and Cox regression. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS In total, 153 children were included, with a median age of 51.7 months (interquartile range 15.6-123.4 months), and 60.8% male. The mortality rate was 10.5%. The prevalence of PICS-ped was 4.6%. Days using vasoactive drugs and days using antibiotics were associated with PICS-ped. PICS-ped was associated with mortality in crude (odds ratio = 6.67; P = 0.013) and adjusted analysis (odds ratio = 7.14; P = 0.017). PICS-ped was also associated with PICU and hospital length of stay, as well as duration of mechanical ventilation. Similar results were found in a subset of critically ill children who required mechanical ventilation for more than 48 h. CONCLUSIONS Children with PICS-ped required antibiotics or vasoactive drugs for a longer period. PICS-ped was associated with poor clinical outcomes in critically ill children. More studies are needed to properly define PICS-ped for this population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze factors associated with the development of early and late multiorgan failure (MOF) in trauma patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). METHODS Spanish Trauma ICU Registry (RETRAUCI). Data collected from 52 trauma ICU between March 2015 and December 2019. We analyzed the incidence, outcomes, and the risk factors associated with early (< 72 h) or late (beyond 72 h) MOF in trauma ICU patients. Multiple logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze associated factors. RESULTS After excluding patients with incomplete data, 9,598 trauma ICU patients constituted the study population. Up to 965 patients (10.1%) presented with MOF, distributed by early MOF in 780 patients (8.1%) and late MOF in 185 patients (1.9%). The multivariate analysis showed that early MOF was associated with: ISS ≥ 16 (OR 2.80), hemodynamic instability (OR from 2.03 to 43.05), trauma-associated coagulopathy (OR 2.32), and acute kidney injury (OR 4.10). Late MOF was associated with: age > 65 years (OR 1.52), hemodynamic instability (OR from 1.92 to 9.94), acute kidney injury (OR 4.22), and nosocomial infection (OR 17.23). MOF was closely related to mortality (crude OR (95% CI) 4.77 (4.22-5.40)). CONCLUSIONS Multiorgan failure was recorded in 10% of trauma ICU patients, with early MOF being the predominant form. Early and late MOF forms were associated with different risk factors, suggesting different pathophysiological pathways. Early MOF was associated with higher severity of injury and severe bleeding-related complications and late MOF with advanced age and nosocomial infection.

Abstract
Older adults have significantly worse morbidity and mortality after severe trauma than younger cohorts. The competency of the innate immune response decreases with advancing age, especially after an inflammatory insult. Subsequent poor outcomes after trauma are caused in part by dysfunctional leukocytes derived from the host's hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs). Our objective was to analyze the bone marrow (BM) HSPC transcriptomic [mRNA and microRNA (miR)] responses to trauma in older and younger adults. BM was collected intraoperatively <9 days after initial injury from trauma patients with non-mild injury [ISS ≥ 9] or with shock (lactate ≥ 2, base deficit ≥ 5, MAP ≤ 65) who underwent operative fixation of a pelvic or long bone fracture. Samples were also analyzed based on age (<55 years and ≥55 years), ISS score and transfusion in the first 24 h, and compared to age/sex-matched controls from non-cancer elective hip replacement or purchased healthy younger adult human BM aspirates. mRNA and miR expression patterns were calculated from lineage-negative enriched HSPCs. 924 genes were differentially expressed in older trauma subjects vs. age/sex-matched controls, while 654 genes were differentially expressed in younger subjects vs. age/sex-matched control. Only 68 transcriptomic changes were shared between the two groups. Subsequent analysis revealed upregulation of transcriptomic pathways related to quantity, function, differentiation, and proliferation of HSPCs in only the younger cohort. miR expression differences were also identified, many of which were associated with cell cycle regulation. In summary, differences in the BM HSPC mRNA and miR expression were identified between older and younger adult trauma subjects. These differences in gene and miR expression were related to pathways involved in HSPC production and differentiation. These differences could potentially explain why older adult patients have a suboptimal hematopoietic response to trauma. Although immunomodulation of HSPCs may be a necessary consideration to promote host protective immunity after host injury, the age related differences further highlight that patients may require an age-defined medical approach with interventions that are specific to their transcriptomic and biologic response. Also, targeting the older adult miRs may be possible for interventions in this patient population.

Abstract
Background/aim Adipokines play an important role in the regulation of metabolism. In critical illness, they alter serum levels and are suspected to worsen clinical outcomes. But the effect of the route of nutrition on adipokines is not known. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between the route of nutrition and adipokine levels in critically ill patients. Materials and methods This prospective study was performed in an intensive care unit (ICU). Patients admitted to the ICU for least 72 h and receiving either enteral nutrition (EN) via tube feeding or parenteral nutrition (PN) were enrolled. Serum was obtained at baseline, 24 h, and 72 h for concentrations of leptin, adiponectin, resistin, glucagon–like peptide 1 (GLP–1), insulin–like growth factors 1 (IGF–1), and ghrelin. Results A total of 26 patients were included in the study. Thirteen patients received EN and 13 patients received PN. In the PN group, leptin level significantly increased (P = 0.037), adiponectin and ghrelin significantly decreased during follow up (P = 0.037, P = 0.008, respectively). There was no significant change between all adipokines in the EN group and resistin, IGF–1 and GLP–1 in the PN group during follow up. Resistin levels were markedly lower in the EN group at both 24 h (P = 0.015) and 72 h (P = 0.006) while GLP–1 levels were higher in the EN group at baseline, 24 h, and 72 h (P = 0.018, P = 0.005, and P = 0.003, respectively). There were no differences in leptin, adiponectin, IGF–1, and ghrelin levels over time. Conclusion The delivery of EN in critical illness was associated with decreased resistin levels and increased GLP–1 levels. Thus, the route of nutrition may impact the clinical outcome in critical illness due to adipokines.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Sepsis has been called a "disease of the elderly," and as in-hospital mortality has decreased, more sepsis survivors are progressing into poorly characterized long-term outcomes. The purpose of this study was to describe the current epidemiology of sepsis in older adults compared with middle-aged and young adults. DESIGN Prospective longitudinal study with young (≤45 years), middle-aged (46-64 years), and older (≥65 years) patient groups. SETTING University tertiary medical center. PARTICIPANTS A total of 328 adult surgical intensive care unit (ICU) sepsis patients. MEASUREMENTS Patients were characterized by (1) baseline demographics and predisposition, (2) septic event, (3) hospital outcomes and discharge disposition, (4) 12-month mortality, and (5) Zubrod Performance Status, physical function (Short Physical Performance Battery and handgrip strength), and cognitive function (Hopkins Verbal Learning Test, Controlled Oral Word Association, and Mini-Mental Status Examination) at 3-, 6-, and 12-month follow-up. Loss to follow-up was due to death (in 68), consent withdrawal (in 32), and illness and scheduling difficulties: month 3 (in 51), month 6 (in 29), and month 12 (in 20). RESULTS Compared with young and middle-aged patients, older patients had (1) significantly more comorbidities at presentation (eg, chronic renal disease 6% vs 12% vs 21%), intra-abdominal infections (14% vs 25% vs 37%), septic shock (12% vs 25% vs 36%), and organ dysfunctions; (2) higher 30-day mortality (6% vs 4% vs 17%) and fewer ICU-free days (median = 25 vs 23 vs 20); (3) more progression into chronic critical illness (22% vs 34% vs 42%) with higher poor disposition discharge to non-home destinations (19% vs 40% vs 62%); (4) worse 12-month mortality (11% vs 14% vs 33%); and (5) poorer Zubrod Performance Status and objectively measured physical and cognitive functions with only slight improvement over 12-month follow-up. CONCLUSION Compared with younger patients, older sepsis survivors suffer both a higher persistent disability burden and 12-month mortality.

Abstract
Background Bacteremia is a major nosocomial infection that frequently occurs in trauma patients, increasing morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study was to identify risk factors and to describe epidemiological patterns for early onset (EOB) and late onset (LOB) bacteremia after trauma. Methods We retrospectively reviewed medical records of all trauma patients admitted to the surgical intensive care unit and general ward between January 2011 and December 2015. The information was collected for each patient and recorded in a computer database: early onset bacteremia (EOB) was defined as when onset occurred within 7 days after trauma, and late onset bacteremia (LOB) was defined as when onset occurred after 7 days from trauma. Results Thirty-four patients of 859 (4%) developed bacteremia during their hospital stay: 4 (11.8%) developed EOB, 26 (76.4%) LOB, and 4 (11.8%) patients developed both of them. Sixty events of bacteremia happened to these patients: 9 (15.0%) EOB and 51 (85.0%) LOB. Gram-positive cocci were isolated more frequently than Gram-negative bacilli in both groups. Gram-positive cocci were more frequently isolated in EOB than in LOB; otherwise, there was no statistical significance (77.8% vs. 64.7%, p=0.683). Central line-associated blood stream infection (CLABSI) and surgical site infection (SSI) were the most common identified source for LOB. Presence of liver (OR: 2.66, p=0.035) and pelvic injury (OR: 2.25, p=0.038), gastrointestinal tract perforation (OR: 5.48, p=0.002), and massive transfusion (OR: 3.36, p=0.006) represented risk factors for bacteremia. Conclusions Presence of pelvic and liver injury on arrival in emergency department, gastrointestinal tract perforation, and massive transfusion within the first 24 hours after trauma appears to be significant risk factors for bacteremia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We sought to compare traditional inpatient outcomes to long-term functional outcomes and mortality of surgical intensive care unit (SICU) patients with sepsis. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA As inpatient sepsis mortality declines, an increasing number of initial sepsis survivors now progress into a state of chronic critical illness (CCI) and their post-discharge outcomes are unclear. METHODS We performed a prospective, longitudinal cohort study of SICU patients with sepsis. RESULTS Among this recent cohort of 301 septic SICU patients, 30-day mortality was 9.6%. Only 13 (4%) patients died within 14 days, primarily of refractory multiple organ failure (62%). The majority (n = 189, 63%) exhibited a rapid recovery (RAP), whereas 99 (33%) developed CCI. CCI patients were older, with greater comorbidities, and more severe and persistent organ dysfunction than RAP patients (all P < 0.01). At 12 months, overall cohort performance status was persistently worse than presepsis baseline (WHO/Zubrod score 1.4 ± 0.08 vs 2.2 ± 0.23, P > 0.0001) and mortality was 20.9%. Of note at 12 months, the CCI cohort had persistent severely impaired performance status and a much higher mortality (41.4%) than those with RAP (4.8%) after controlling for age and comorbidity burden (Cox hazard ratio 1.27; 95% confidence interval, 1.14-1.41, P < 0.0001). Among CCI patients, independent risk factors for death by 12 months included severity of comorbidities and persistent organ dysfunction (sequential organ failure assessment ≥6) at day 14 after sepsis onset. CONCLUSIONS There is discordance between low inpatient mortality and poor long-term outcomes after surgical sepsis, especially among older adults, increasing comorbidity burden and patients that develop CCI. This represents important information when discussing expected outcomes of surgical patients who experience a complicated clinical course owing to sepsis.
