在强化血液病治疗期间观察到高频严重高血糖：一项使用连续血糖监测的前瞻性研究

During intensive hematologic care, patients are exposed to high-dose chemotherapy, corticosteroids, immunosuppressants, and total parenteral nutrition. Combined with physiologic stress and increased release of cytokines and hormones, this can lead to dysglycemia, which is associated with adverse clinical outcomes. This prospective study aimed to investigate continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) to identify dysglycemia during intensive hematologic care.

Patients receiving chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy or allogeneic or autologous stem cell transplantation were eligible. Throughout the study, glucose levels were concurrently monitored using CGM and point-of-care (POC) glucose measurements in 60 patients (71% male, median age of 64 [interquartile range, 58-68] years, and 10% with diabetes).

Hyperglycemia (glucose level, >10 mmol/L) was prevalent in 93% of patients, of whom 90% had no history of diabetes. Severe hyperglycemia (glucose level, >13.1 mmol/L) was present in 38%. Additionally, hyperglycemia was associated with prolonged hospitalization in patients undergoing chimeric antigen receptor T-cell treatment (β, 0.19; 95% CI, 0.04-0.35) and autologous stem cell transplantation (β, 0.16; 95% CI, 0.01-0.32). CGM outperformed POC in detecting hyperglycemia (>10 mmol/L: 1060 vs 124, detected 2.8 [interquartile range, 0.7-4.0]) hours earlier. The mean absolute relative difference between CGM and POC was 21.5%, with 99.8% of measurements in the clinical acceptable zone A + B of the Clarke error grid.

These findings emphasize the potential and importance of glucose monitoring with CGM for improved and earlier detection of hyperglycemia, in this patient population, which seems feasible. Our results suggest a need for further studies into CGM as method to optimize glucose levels, which could improve outcomes in patients receiving intensive hematologic care.
