The present study aimed to explore the relationship between neutrophil count on admission and major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) during hospitalization in young ACS patients, which have rarely been investigated in previous studies. ⋯ The neutrophil count upon admission is an independent predictor of in-hospital MACCE and LVEF in young ACS patients, giving important information for predicting the poor prognosis of young ACS patients.

The purpose was to explore the correlation between refeeding hypophosphatemia and delirium and analyze the related factors in critically ill patients. ⋯ The incidence of delirium in critically ill patients is high and associated with refeeding hypophosphatemia. Delirium may occur with serum phosphorus levels less than 0.845 mmol/L on the first day.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and risk of malnutrition can coexist in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We performed a malnutrition risk assessment as part of the standard follow-up of IBD patients and studied the potential risk factors for being at risk of malnutrition based on the presence or absence of MASLD. ⋯ Malnutrition risk and quality of life are modified by the presence of MASLD in IBD patients.

The high mobilization failure rate with the mobilization strategy of combining chemotherapy and filgrastim (rhG-CSF) in autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) in lymphomas is one of the unresolved issues. Whether the combination of polyethylene glycol filgrastim [pegfilgrastim (PEG-FIL), PEG-rhG-CSF] and filgrastim (FIL) improves the mobilization success rate and the timing of combination therapy has not been studied. ⋯ Compared to conventional filgrastim mobilization, the combination of pegfilgrastim and filgrastim schedule has high efficacy, non-inferior safety, and superior health economic benefits during auto-HSCT.
