Cytokine response to critical illness and its relation to amino acid metabolism Open
Data are from the baseline measurements of study NCT02770092 (URL: https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02770092) and NCT03628365 (URL: https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03628365).

Relation between resting energy expenditure and amino acid metabolism in the post-acute phase of catabolic critically ill patients Open
In chronically critically ill patients, catabolism persists. Resting energy expenditure is in a decrease and is inversely correlated to citrulline. Most of plasma amino acid concentrations are decreased, but whole-body amino acid productio…

GLIM consensus approach to diagnosis of malnutrition: A 5‐year update Open
Background The Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) introduced an approach for malnutrition diagnosis in 2019 that comprised screening followed by assessment of three phenotypic criteria (weight loss, low body mass index [BM…

Videoart in the intensive care unit: A prospective observational study Open
There is a trend toward the beneficial effect of videoart for the alleviation of stress symptoms among ICU patients. However, further study is needed to examine the role of this technology.

Recognizing malnutrition in adults with critical illness: Guidance statements from the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition Open
CONCLUSION: Research using consistent etiologic and phenotypic variables offers great potential to assess the efficacy of nutrition interventions for critically ill patients with malnutrition. Assessment of these variables at during and be…

Recognizing malnutrition in adults with critical illness: Guidance statements from the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition Open
Background Patients with critical illness may present with disease‐related malnutrition upon intensive care unit (ICU) admission. They are at risk of development and progression of malnutrition over the disease trajectory because of inflam…

Risk Factors for Mortality Among Older Adults with Hospital-Acquired Bloodstream Infections in the Intensive Care Unit: A Multicenter Cohort Study Open
HA-BSI in older adults in ICU are associated with high mortality. Inadequate source control is a significant modifiable risk factor. The use of corticosteroids in ICU management of older adults should be further investigated.

Characterizing and Predicting Outcomes in Critically Ill Patients Receiving Low or High Protein Doses with Moderate Energy Support: A Retrospective Study Open
Background: Finding the best energy and protein dose and timing for critically ill patients remains challenging. Distinct populations may react differently to protein load. This study aimed to characterize and predict outcomes of criticall…

Evaluating predictive equations for energy requirements throughout breast cancer trajectory: A comparative study Open
Most equations failed to accurately predict REE at the group level, and none were effective at the individual level. This inaccuracy has significant implications for women with or surviving breast cancer, who may experience weight gain, ma…

A historical cohort study on predictors for successful weaning from prolonged mechanical ventilation and up to 3-year survival follow-up in a rehabilitation center Open
Successful weaning from PMV may be associated with better survival and allows chronically ventilated patients to become independent on a ventilator. A larger study is needed to further validate our findings.

Predicting invasive mechanical ventilation in COVID 19 patients: A validation study Open
Introduction The decision to intubate and ventilate a patient is mainly clinical. Both delaying intubation (when needed) and unnecessarily invasively ventilating (when it can be avoided) are harmful. We recently developed an algorithm pred…

Starvation and occurrence of hypophosphatemia (HYPOP) during ICU stay Open
Rationale: Refeeding syndrome and hypoP are major concerns during the initiation of nutritional support. We evaluated the correlation between starvation duration before nutritional support initiation and hypoP occurrence during ICU admissi…
