Introduction: infection (CDI) is one of the most important challenges in contemporary gastroenterology. However, data from CDI studies are sometimes contradictory.
Aim: To analyse the risk factors for CDI in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
Background: Rising nosocomial infections pose high risks, especially for immunocompromised leukemia patients, necessitating targeted research to enhance patient care and outcomes.The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of nosocomial infections (CDI) on patients hospitalized with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
Methods: Our study was a retrospective analysis of adult patients hospitalized with a primary diagnosis of ALL or AML, using the Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) database for 2020.
