Although different strategies for early detection and prompt treatment have been established, it is a heterogeneous population with risk factors that are difficult to detect. The data available on the prediction of such complications is limited and there lies the importance of characterizing this type of patients in our environment and evaluating the factors related to the adverse outcomes. Methods The study is a retrospective cohort study conducted at San Vicente Foundation University Hospital (HUSVF) and Alma Mater Hospital of Antioquia (HAMA) in Medellín, Colombia, between January 2018 and December 2020, including patients diagnosed with FN who presented FN at the time of diagnosis or up to 30 days after receiving chemotherapy. The main objective was to determine the factors related to mortality and severe complications (ICU admission, need for vasopressors, or need for mechanical ventilation), while the secondary objective was the microbiological characterization of this population. Results Of the 190 FN episodes, 134 (70.5%) had a clinical focus of infection. A causal agent was identified in 125 episodes (65.8%), with the majority being bacteria in 112 cases (92.6%) of the isolates. The most frequently identified bacteria were Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Staphylococcus aureus. Gram-negative bacilli were isolated in 85 (86%) cases, and resistance was present in 38 cases (44.7%), with both extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) and Klebsiella pneumoniae Carbapenemase (KPC) detected in nine (10.5%). In 53 (34.4%) episodes, some complications occurred during FN. The 30-day all-cause mortality was 53 (34.4%), with 27 (50.9%) of these cases associated with complications. Of the 45 (86.5%) patients who died from any cause, all did so during their first episode of FN. In the bivariate analysis, the following factors were associated with higher mortality: hypertension (OR 2.58, 95% CI 1.19-5.58; p=0.014), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (OR 10.2, 95% CI 1.11-93.8; p=0.013), chronic kidney disease (OR 4.27, 95% CI 0.975-18.7; p=0.038), prolonged neutropenia (OR 2.34, 95% CI 1.1-4.95; p=0.024), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels greater than two times the upper normal limit (UNL) (OR 3.24, 95% CI 1.35-7.75; p=0.007). In contrast, normal albumin levels before chemotherapy were associated with lower mortality (OR 0.381, 95% CI 0.15-0.95; p=0.036). In the multivariate analysis, none of the identified factors were statistically significant in predicting complications or mortality. Conclusión No factors related to complications or mortality were found in the multivariate analysis. However, the heterogeneity of the population suggests that these outcomes are not determined by a single factor, and a study with a larger sample may be needed to confirm them.

Título : Changes in the incidence of acute bacterial meningitis caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae and the implications of serotype replacement in children in Colombia after mass vaccination with PCV10 Tipo de documento : documento electrónico Autores : Mónica Rosa Trujillo Honeysberg, Fecha de publicación : 2022 Títulos uniformes : Frontiers in Pediatrics Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave : pneumococcal meningitis pediatrics infections vaccines microbiology serotype Resumen : Introduction: Acute bacterial meningitis (ABM) is a public health problem. The disease has reemerged after the introduction of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) due to an increase in serotypes that are not covered. The objective was to determine the changes in the disease incidence before and after the introduction of the 10-valent vaccine (PCV10) in Colombia. Methods: This multicenter study was conducted in 17 hospitals in Colombia. Data were collected from January 2008 to December 2019 in 10 hospitals in Bogotá and from January 2017 to December 2019 in seven hospitals in Cali, Medellín and Cartagena. The data were grouped into three periods: 2008–2011, 2012–2015, and 2016-2019. Results: Of the 706 cases of invasive pneumococcal disease, 81 (11.4%) corresponded to meningitis. The relative incidence in Bogotá in the first period was 0.6 per 100,000 patients ≤ 5 years, decreased to 0.4 per 100,000 patients ≤ 5 years in the second period and increased in the third period to 0.7 per 100,000 patients ≤ 5 years. Serotypes covered by PCV10 decreased from 75 to 9.1%, with Spn19A (31.8%) and Spn34 (13.6%) emerging in the third period. Increased resistance to penicillin (13 to 37%) and to ceftriaxone (5.9 to 16%) was due to the emergence of multidrug-resistant Spn19A. The total mortality rate was 23.5% and increased from 12 to 33%. Conclusions: ABM due to pneumococcus has high morbidity and mortality rates. Reemergence of the disease has been observed due to the inclusion of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for diagnosis and replacement of circulating serotypes after the introduction of PCV10, with an increase in Spn19A, which causes death and exhibits antimicrobial resistance. Continued surveillance is needed.

Título : An observational cross-sectional study of the possible relationship between high levels of cytokines (TNF and IL10) and healthcare-associated and other infections in patients with polytrauma Tipo de documento : documento electrónico Autores : Beatriz Helena Aristizábal Bernal, ; Edwin Alexander Vásquez Salazar, ; Olga Lucía Rincón Caballero, ; Gladys Stella Mejía Pineda, ; Alfredo Constain Franco, ; Paula María Jaramillo Gómez, ; Nelson Darío Giraldo Ramírez, ; Carlos Oliver Valderrama Molina, Fecha de publicación : 2019 Títulos uniformes : MOJ Orthopedics & Rheumatology Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave : blunt trauma proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines infections Resumen : Background: The recognition of the relationship between cytokines and outcomes in trauma patients is important. It is possible that early detection of those patients who develop an imbalance in this dual immune response, which would be responsible for subsequent organ dysfunction and susceptibility to infections, allow differential management to reduce the occurrence of such complications. Methods: An observational cross-sectional study to describe the kinetics of cytokines/chemokines (IL-1B, IL-6, TNF-a, IL-12p70, IL-10, and IL-8) and to explore the possible relationship with the development of infectious complications during the first admission to the hospital in patients with multiple trauma admitted to the emergency room. Serum samples were used to measured cytokines/chemokines. Times of collection were: 0-6 hour’s postrauma, 24 hours and 72 hours postrauma. Results: 20 consecutive patients were included, 60% were male, the median age was 26.5 years , 90% had a traffic accident, 40% had a severe traumatic brain injury defined as Glasgow less than or equal to 8. The median ISS was 22(17,2–35,2). There was an incidence of shock defined as lactate greater than or equal to 4 of 40%. The admission to ICU was 80%. Of the 16 who entered the ICU, 94% required mechanical ventilation. There was only one hospital death. Cytokines shown to be significantly different between trauma patient’s groups; a greater severity of the trauma in the group that presented infection (ISS 27 vs 17, p=0.011). IL10 on admission and ISS are significantly associated with increased prevalence of infection in this sample of patients with multiple trauma. Conclusion: Peripheral cytokines could present a method for tracking the course of severe blunt trauma and for better understanding this process. Our results imply that measuring cytokine expression patterns after severe blunt trauma is meaningful to explore and potentially useful in developing innovative approaches for treating acute and subacute trauma.
