Article Abstract
Background: Critically ill patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) often experience dysglycaemia. However, studies investigating the link between acute kidney injury (AKI) and dysglycaemia, especially in those with and without diabetes mellitus (DM), are limited.
Methods: We used the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV database to investigate the association between AKI within 7 days of admission and subsequent dysglycaemia. The primary outcome was the occurrence of dysglycaemia (both hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia) after 7 days of ICU admission. Logistic regression analyzed the relationship between AKI and dysglycaemia, while a Cox proportional hazards model estimated the long-term mortality risk linked to the AKI combined with dysglycaemia.
Results: A cohort of 20,008 critically ill patients were included. The AKI group demonstrated a higher prevalence of dysglycaemia, compared to the non-AKI group. AKI patients had an increased risk of dysglycaemia (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 1.53, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.41-1.65), hypoglycemia (aOR 1.56, 95% CI 1.41-1.73), and hyperglycemia (aOR 1.53, 95% CI 1.41-1.66). In subgroup analysis, compared to DM patients, AKI showed higher risk of dysglycaemia in non-DM patients (aOR: 1.93 vs. 1.33, <0.01). Additionally, the AKI with dysglycaemia group exhibited a higher risk of long-term mortality compared to the non-AKI without dysglycaemia group. Dysglycaemia also mediated the relationship between AKI and long-term mortality.
Conclusion: AKI was associated with a higher risk of dysglycaemia, especially in non-DM patients, and the combination of AKI and dysglycaemia was linked to higher long-term mortality. Further research is needed to develop optimal glycemic control strategies for AKI patients.

From clinical trials to daily practice: how to adequately administer sulbactam-durlobactam? alone or combined with imipenem?
Curr Opin Infect Dis
September 2025
Infectious Diseases Unit, IRCCS Azienda Ospedaliero-Universitaria di Bologna.
Purpose Of Review: Sulbactam-durlobactam (SUL-DUR) is a novel β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor combination recently approved for carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) infections. This review summarizes current knowledge on the optimal use of SUL-DUR, whether administered alone or in combination with carbapenems, particularly imipenem.
Recent Findings: Data from registrational trial demonstrate that SUL-DUR is an effective and well tolerated treatment option for CRAB severe infections.
Pain, Agitation, Delirium, and Iatrogenic Withdrawal Syndrome Management in Children Who Are Critically Ill: Protocol for a European Clinical Practice Guideline Using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation Approach.
JMIR Res Protoc
September 2025
Institute of Higher Education and Research in Healthcare, Faculty of Biology and Medicine, University of Lausanne, Lausanne, Switzerland.
Background: In pediatric intensive care units, pain, sedation, delirium, and iatrogenic withdrawal syndrome (IWS) must be managed as interrelated conditions. Although clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) exist, new evidence needs to be incorporated, gaps in recommendations addressed, and recommendations adapted to the European context.
Objective: This protocol describes the development of the first patient- and family-informed European guideline for managing pain, sedation, delirium, and IWS by the European Society of Paediatric and Neonatal Intensive Care.
Gonorrhea and Chlamydia Screening for Adolescents and Young Adults in Emergency Departments.

Importance: Adolescents account for almost half of the 2.5 million diagnosed sexually transmitted infections in the US annually, and the emergency department functions as the primary source of health care for many adolescents. No recommendations exist for emergency department gonorrhea and chlamydia screening.

Importance: The cost-effectiveness of adding early in-bed cycling to usual physiotherapy among adults receiving mechanical ventilation in the intensive care unit (ICU) compared with usual physiotherapy alone is unknown.
Objective: To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of in-bed cycling plus usual physiotherapy compared with usual therapy alone in the Critical Care Cycling to Improve Lower Extremity Strength (CYCLE) randomized clinical trial.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This trial-based economic evaluation with a 90-day time horizon compared early cycling plus usual physiotherapy vs usual physiotherapy alone from a societal perspective.
Ultrasound-Based Assessment of Rectus Femoris Muscle Wasting as a Predictor of 28-Day Mortality in Septic Shock: A Prospective Study.
J Intensive Care Med
September 2025
Medical Intensive Care Unit, 108 Military Central Hospital, Hanoi, Vietnam.
Background: Bedside ultrasound is increasingly utilized to assess muscle mass in critically ill patients, providing a noninvasive and real-time tool for early risk stratification. Muscle wasting is known to be associated with adverse outcomes in septic shock, but its prognostic value using ultrasound in this population remains underexplored. This study aimed to investigate the association between changes in rectus femoris cross-sectional area (CSA), assessed by bedside ultrasound, and 28-day mortality in patients with septic shock.
