Abstract
Background & objective: Although the outcome of patients admitted to ICUs have considerably improved in recent years, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) continues to be significantly associated with mortality.
We studied the prognostic factors associated with ICU mortality after HSCT. The Acute Physiological and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) was used as a prognostic scoring system.
Methods: Within the scope of the research, the clinical and laboratory data of 52 patients who were admitted to the ICU after undergoing HSCT between 2013 and 2019 were analyzed retrospectively.
Results: Mortality risk was found to be 4.22 times higher in patients who received mechanical ventilation (MV) within the first 24 h (P = 0.047), 18.37 times higher in patients who received total parenteral nutrition (TPN) support (P = 0.007), and 158.17 times higher in recipients of vasopressor drug support compared to those who did not (P < 0.001). It was found that a one unit increase in GCS score decreased mortality risk by 0.58 fold (P = 0.015). Additionally, a one unit increase in heart rate was found to increase mortality risk by 1.03 fold (P = 0.010). Whereas, one unit increases in systolic blood pressure or diastolic blood pressure decreased the mortality risk by 0.91 and 0.92 fold, respectively (P = 0.001 and P = 0.002). Mortality was not associated with APACHE II or graft-versus-host disease.
Conclusion: Receiving MV, TPN or vasopressor treatment, and having lower GCS, higher heart rate, lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure were associated with an increase in the risk of ICU mortality in HSCT recipients admitted to the ICU.

Abstract
Candida bloodstream infections are associated with high mortality among critically ill patients in intensive care units (ICUs). Studies that explore the risk factors for candidemia may support better patient care in intensive care units. We conducted a retrospective, multicenter case-control study to investigate the risk factors for noncatheter-related Candida bloodstream infections (CBSI) in adult ICUs. Participants selected controls randomly on a 1:1 basis among all noncase patients stayed during the same period in ICUs. Data on 139 cases and 140 controls were deemed eligible. Among the controls, 69 patients died. The stratified Fine-Gray model was used to estimate the subdistribution Hazard ratios. The subdistribution hazards and 95% confidence intervals for final covariates were as follows: prior exposure to antimycotic agents, 2.21 (1.56-3.14); prior exposure to N-acetylcysteine, 0.11 (0.03-0.34) and prior surgical intervention, 1.26 (0.76-2.11). Of the patients, those exposed to antimycotic drugs, 87.1% (54/62) had breakthrough candidemia. Serious renal, hepatic, or hematologic side effects were comparable between patients those exposed and not-exposed to systemic antimycotic drugs. Untargeted administration of antimycotic drugs did not improve survival among candidemic patients (not-exposed, 63.6% [49/77]; exposed % 66.1 [41/62]; P = .899). This study documented that exposure to an antifungal agent is associated with increased the risk of subsequent development of CBSIs among nonneutropenic adult patients admitted to the ICU. Only two centers regularly prescribed N-acetylcysteine. Due to the limited number of subjects, we interpreted the positive effect of N-acetylcysteine on the absolute risk of CBSIs with caution.

Abstract
AIM To examine the variables associated with mortality in patients with Acinetobacter baumannii-related central nervous system infections treated with intrathecal colistin. MATERIALS AND METHODS This multi-centre retrospective case control study included patients from 11 centres in Turkey, as well as cases found during a literature review. Only patients with CNS infections caused by multidrug-resistant or extensively drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii treated with intrathecal colistin were included in this study. The variables associated with mortality were determined by dividing the patients into groups who died or survived during hospitalisation, and who died or survived from Acinetobacter meningitis. RESULTS Among the 77 cases enrolled in the study, 35 were found through a literature review and 42 were cases from our centres. Forty-four cases (57.1%) were male and the median age was 48 years (range: 20-78 years). Thirty-seven patients (48%) died during hospitalisation. The variables associated with increased all-cause mortality during hospitalisation included old age (odds ratio, 1.035; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.004-1.067; p=0.026) and failure to provide cerebrospinal fluid sterilisation (odds ratio, 0.264; 95% confidence interval, 0.097-0.724; p=0.01). There is a trend (P=0.062) towards higher mortality with using of meropenem during meningitis treatment. Fifteen cases (19%) died from meningitis. There were no significant predictors of meningitis-related mortality. CONCLUSIONS The mortality rate for central nervous system infections caused by multidrug-resistant or extensively drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii is high. Old age and failure to provide CSF sterilisation are associated with increased mortality during hospitalisation.
