Study summary

This is a retrospective chart review of patients who underwent a hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) between 1994 and 2016 to evaluate incidence of malglycemia and the relationship to specific outcomes.

Read the detailed description

This is a retrospective chart review of patients who underwent a hematopoietic stem cell transplant between 2007 and 2016 to evaluate incidence and risk factors of malglycemia. The review will also aim to characterize relationships between specific outcomes and malglycemia in pediatric HSCT patients.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of patients experiencing malglycemia in primary admission for pediatric HSCT patients

    hypoglycemia (BG \< 70 mg/dL), hyperglycemia (BG ≥ 126 mg/dL), or glycemic variability (σ ≥ 29 mg/dL)

    Time frame: Transplant Day -14 to +100

  2. Number of patients with versus without malglycemia who experience infection

    It is hypothesized that patients who experience malglycemia will have an increased rate of post-transplant infections. This outcome will be assessed for differences in incidence based on malglycemia occurence

    Time frame: Transplant Day 0 to +100

Secondary outcomes

  1. Determine whether specific exposures are associated with increased occurrence of malglycemia

    The occurrence of the outcome, malglycemia, with be assessed for differences in incidence that may occur as a result of age, medication exposures (use of glucocorticoids, asparaginase, total parenteral nutrition (TPN), or calcineurin inhibitors), underlying diagnosis, and transplant type

    Time frame: Transplant Day -14 to +100

  2. Survival rate of patients with versus without malglycemia

    It is hypothesized that patients who experience malglycemia will have an increased rate of post-transplant mortality. This outcome will be assessed for differences in incidence based on malglycemia occurrence

    Time frame: Transplant Day 0 through date of relapse or death

  3. Occurrence of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in patients with versus without malglycemia

    It is hypothesized that patients who experience malglycemia will have an increased rate of GVHD. This outcome will be assessed for differences in incidence based on malglycemia occurrence

    Time frame: Transplant Day 0 through date of relapse or death
