Clinical impacts of total parenteral nutrition in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation patients with high nutritional risk.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) patients often receive consecutive intensive chemotherapy, which can lead to gastrointestinal complications and acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), placing patients at high nutritional risk.

Aim

This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the benefits of nutritional support in maintaining nutritional status, reducing weight loss without increasing the incidence of catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRBSI) or liver dysfunction, and improving clinical outcomes in HSCT patients at high nutritional risk.

Methods

A total of 526 patients who underwent HSCT were included in the study. Based on the Nutrition Risk Screening-2002 (NRS-2002) and propensity score matching, 70 patients were assigned to the control
