    Abstract: Background: Sepsis is a deadly disease worldwide. Effective treatment strategy of sepsis remains limited. There still was a controversial about association between preadmission metformin use and mortality in sepsis patients with diabetes. We aimed to assess sepsis-related mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) who were preadmission metformin and non-metformin users. Methods: The patients with sepsis and T2DM were included from Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care -III database. Outcome was 30-day mortality. We used multivariable Cox regression analyses to calculate adjusted hazard ratio (HR) with 95% CI. Results: We included 2,383 sepsis patients with T2DM (476 and 1,907 patients were preadmission metformin and non-metformin uses) between 2001 and 2012. The overall 30-day mortality was 20.1% (480/2,383); it was 21.9% (418/1,907), and 13.0% (62/476) for non-metformin and metformin users, respectively. After adjusted for potential confounders, we found that preadmission metformin use was associated with 39% lower of 30-day mortality (HR = 0.61, 95% CI: 0.46–0.81, p = 0.007). In sensitivity analyses, subgroups analyses, and propensity score matching, the results remain stable. Conclusions: Preadmission metformin use may be associated with reduced risk-adjusted mortality in patients with sepsis and T2DM. It is worthy to further investigate this association.

    Abstract: Hemodynamic management is of paramount importance in patients with acute kidney injury (AKI). Central venous pressure (CVP) has been used to assess volume status. We intended to identify the optimal time window in which to obtain CVP to avoid the incidence of adverse outcomes in patients with AKI. Methods The study was based on the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC) IV database. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality. Secondary outcomes included the number of ICU-free days and norepinephrine-free days at 28 days after ICU admission, and total fluid input and fluid balance during the first and second day. A time–dose–response relationship between wait time of CVP measurement and in-hospital mortality was implemented to find an inflection point for grouping, followed by propensity-score matching (PSM), which was used to compare the outcomes between the two groups. Results Twenty Nine Thousand and Three Hundred Thirty Six patients with AKI were enrolled, and the risk of in-hospital mortality increased when the CVP acquisition time was & gt;9 h in the Cox proportional hazards regression model. Compared with 8,071 patients (27.5%) who underwent CVP measurement within 9 h and were assigned to the early group, 21,265 patients (72.5%) who delayed or did not monitor CVP had a significantly higher in-hospital mortality in univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses. After adjusting for potential confounders by PSM and adjusting for propensity score, pairwise algorithmic, overlap weight, and doubly robust analysis, the results were still stable. The HRs were 0.58–0.72, all p & lt; 0.001. E -value analysis suggested robustness to unmeasured confounding. Conclusions Among adults with AKI in ICU, increased CVP wait time was associated with a greater risk of in-hospital mortality. In addition, early CVP monitoring perhaps contributed to shortening the length of ICU stays and days of norepinephrine use, as well as better fluid management.

    Abstract: Background. Heart failure (HF) is a leading cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide, with an increasing incidence. Invasive ventilation is considered to be essential for patients with HF. Previous studies have shown that driving pressure is associated with mortality in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). However, the relationship between driving pressure and mortality has not yet been examined in ventilated patients with HF. We assessed the association of driving pressure and mortality in patients with HF. Methods. We conducted a retrospective cohort study of invasive ventilated adult patients with HF from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care-III database. We used multivariable logistic regression models, a generalized additive model, and a two-piecewise linear regression model to show the effect of the average driving pressure within 24 h of intensive care unit admission on in-hospital mortality. Results. Six hundred and thirty-two invasive ventilated patients with HF were enrolled. Driving pressure was independently associated with in-hospital mortality (odds ratio [OR], 1.12; 95% confidence interval [CI] , 1.06–1.18; P 〈 0.001 ) after adjusted potential confounders. A nonlinear relationship was found between driving pressure and in-hospital mortality, which had a threshold around 14.27 cmH2O. The effect sizes and CIs below and above the threshold were 0.89 (0.75 to 1.05) and 1.17 (1.07 to 1.30), respectively. Conclusions. There was a nonlinear relationship between driving pressure and mortality in patients with HF who were ventilated for more than 48 h, and this relationship was associated with increased in-hospital mortality when the driving pressure was more than 14.27 cmH2O.

    Abstract: Background: the optimal timing of Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) performance for patients with septic shock remains unexplored. Methods: a retrospective cohort study included patients with septic shock in the MIMIC-Ⅲ database. Risk-adjusted restricted cubic splines modeled the 28-day mortality according to time elapsed from ICU admission to receive TTE. The cut point when a smooth curve inflected was selected to define early and delayed group. We applied propensity score matching (PSM) to ensure our findings were reliable. Causal mediation analysis was used to assess the intermediate effect of fluid balance within 72 h after ICU admission. Results: 3264 participants were enrolled and the risk of 28-day mortality increased until the wait time was around 10 h (Early group) and then was relatively flat afterwards (Delayed group). A beneficial effect of early TTE in terms of the 28-day mortality was observed (HRs 0.73–0.78, all p 〈 0.05) in the PSM. The indirect effect brought by the fluid balance on day 2 and 3 was significant (both p = 0.006). Conclusion: early TTE performance might be associated with lower risk-adjusted 28-day mortality in patients with septic shock. Better fluid balance may have mediated this effect. A wait time within 10 h after ICU may represent a threshold defining progressively increasing risk.
