Pathogenic Burden, Antimicrobial Resistance Pattern and Clinical Outcome of Nosocomial Bloodstream Infections in Intensive Care Unit.
J Intensive Care Med
December 2024
Department of Critical Care and Anaesthesiology, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Jodhpur, India.
Nosocomial bloodstream infections with multidrug-resistant microorganisms have become a common health threat in intensive care settings worldwide. Understanding antimicrobial resistance and the outcomes of these infections is crucial for addressing this issue. This study aimed to investigate the burden, antimicrobial resistance, and 28-day outcomes of nosocomial bloodstream infections in the intensive care unit.

Background: Corticosteroid-binding globulin (CBG) modulates tissue cortisol availability via modification of cortisol:CBG binding affinity in response to multiple factors, including neutrophil elastase (NE) cleavage of the reactive centre loop (RCL), converting high affinity CBG (haCBG) to low affinity CBG (laCBG). In vitro, glycosylation of the RCL at Asn347 affects NE cleavage susceptibility. To date, no direct measurement of laCBG, which would verify NE cleavage, has been reported.

Department of Blood Transfusion, Children's Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, National Clinical Research Center for Child Health, Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, P.R. China. Electronic address:
Background/objectives: Pediatric patients with sepsis are frequently subjected to red blood cell (RBC) transfusions but yet its association with mortality is still controversial.
Methods: We consecutively selected 125 patients with sepsis, severe sepsis, and septic shock admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) in our center from January 2022 to January 2023, and finally 100 patients were included in this retrospective cohort study. The patients were divided into two groups: group I who received RBC transfusion and group II who did not receive RBC transfusion.
Comparing ceftazidime/avibactam and polymyxin B for treating carbapenem-resistant organisms infections: a propensity score-matched retrospective cohort study.

December 2024
Department of Critical Care Medicine, Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University, No. 324 Jingwu Road, Jinan, 250021, Shandong, People's Republic of China. Electronic address:
Background And Aim: Comparative studies of Ceftazidime/avibactam(CAZ/AVI) versus polymyxin B (PMB) for carbapenem-resistant organisms (CRO) infections are limited. We aims to compare the efficacy and safety of CAZ/AVI and PMB in treating CRO infections.
Methods: This single-center, propensity score-matched (PSM) retrospective cohort study involved adult patients with CRO infections.
Impact on fluid balance of an optimized restrictive strategy targeting non-resuscitative fluids in intensive care patients with septic shock: a single-blind, multicenter, randomized, controlled, pilot study.
Crit Care
December 2024
Division of Anesthesia, Critical Care, Pain and Emergency Medicine, UR‑UM103 IMAGINE, University of Montpellier, Nimes University Hospital, Nîmes, France.
Background: In septic shock, the classic fluid resuscitation strategy can lead to a potentially harmful positive fluid balance. This multicenter, randomized, single-blind, parallel, controlled pilot study assessed the effectiveness of a restrictive fluid strategy aiming to limit daily volume.
Methods: Patients 18-85 years' old admitted to the ICU department of three French hospitals were eligible for inclusion if they had septic shock and were in the first 24 h of vasopressor infusion.
