Abstract
The purpose was to investigate how well age-adjusted modified quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (qSOFA) scores paired with blood glucose and lactate levels predict the outcomes of septicemic children in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). One hundred children who were diagnosed with sepsis and septic shock in the PICU of Henan Children's Hospital were eligible, and other 20 patients in the same hospital at different times were selected as a validation set. Respiratory rate (RR), heart rate (HR), capillary refill time (CRT), and Alert, Voice, Pain, Unresponsive (AVPU) scale were included in the age-adjusted modified qSOFA scoring criteria for scoring. The primary outcome was 28-day all-cause mortality. The predictive values were evaluated by the ROC curve. In the sepsis group, 50 patients were male, and 50 patients were female. The 28-day all-cause mortality rate was 52%. Fifty-one patients with age-adjusted modified qSOFA scores >1. The serum lactate level was 2.4 mmol/L, and the blood glucose level was 9.3 mmol/L. The AUCs for the age-adjusted modified qSOFA score, serum lactate and blood glucose levels for the prediction of 28-day all-cause mortality in children with sepsis were 0.719, 0.719 and 0.737, respectively. The cut-off values were one point, 3.8 mmol/L and 10 mmol/L, respectively. The AUC of the age-adjusted modified qSOFA score for the validation set of was 0.925. When the three indices were combined, the AUC was 0.817, the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test showed χ2 = 2.428 and p = .965. When children with sepsis are admitted to the ICU, we recommend performing rapid scoring and rapid bedside lactate and glucose testing to determine the early prognosis.

Abstract
Background Polymyxins have become an important treatment option for carbapenem-resistant organisms (CRO) infections. However, there is a rare of clinical studies on colistin sulfate. This study sought to investigate the rate of clinical improvement and adverse reactions of colistin sulfate in the treatment of severe infections caused by CRO in critically ill patients and assess the factors associated with 28-day all-cause mortality. Methods This multicenter retrospective cohort study included intensive care unit (ICU) patients who received colistin sulfate due to CRO infections during July 2021 and May 2022. The primary endpoint was clinical improvement at end of therapy. Secondary endpoints included adverse reactions bacterial clearance rate and 28-day all-cause mortality. Results A total of 122 patients, who were included between July 2021 and May 2022, were included in this study, of whom 86 (70.5%) showed clinical improvement and 36 (29.5%) showed clinical failure. The comparison of the clinical data of the patients showed that the median sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score was higher in the failure group than the improvement group {9.5 [7, 11] vs. 7 [4, 9], P=0.002}, the proportion of patients receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) was higher in the failure group than the improvement group (27.8% vs. 12.8%, P=0.046), and the median duration of treatment was longer in the improvement group than the failure group {12 [8, 15] vs. 5.5 [4, 9.75], P<0.001}. A total of 5 (4.1%) patients suffered from acute kidney injury due to increases in creatinine during colistin sulfate treatment. The Cox regression survival analysis showed that the SOFA score [hazards ratio (HR) =1.198, P=0.001], ECMO treatment (HR =2.373, P=0.029), and duration of treatment (HR =0.736, P<0.001) were independently associated with 28-day all-cause mortality. Conclusions Colistin sulfate is a reasonable choice for the treatment of CRO infections in the current treatment options are limited. The possible kidney injury caused by the colistin sulfate requires intensive monitoring.
