Analysis of risk factors for end-stage liver disease complicated with fungal esophagitis

Objective To investigate the risk factors for end-stage liver disease (ESLD) complicated with fungal esophagitis (FE). Methods The clinical data of ESLD patients who underwent gastroscopy during their hospitalization in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University between January 1, 2017 and December 31, 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. The ESLD patients with FE were selected as the study group, and the ESLD patients without FE during the same period were included as the control group by 1∶2 propensity score matching method. Multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the risk factors of ESLD complicated with FE. Results A total of 75 ESLD patients with FE and 150 ESLD patients without FE were enrolled. There was no significant difference in age, gender, decompensated cirrhosis, liver cancer, diabetes mellitus, or etiology of ESLD between the two groups (P>0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that longer hospital stay [odds ratio (OR)=1.115, 95% confidence interval (CI) (1.069, 1.164)], with invasive procedures [OR=10.820, 95%CI (4.393, 26.647)], and higher total bilirubin [OR=1.015, 95%CI (1.005, 1.024)] were risk factors for ESLD complicated with FE (P<0.05). In the study group, 41 patients were treated with antifungal drugs, and 4 of them developed invasive fungal infection. Among the 34 patients who did not receive antifungal drugs, 10 developed invasive fungal infection. Conclusions ESLD patients with longer hospital stay, worse liver function, and invasive procedures are more likely to develop FE, and regular gastroscopy should be performed. Once FE is found, active antifungal treatment should be taken to reduce the occurrence of invasive fungal infection and improve the prognosis of patients.

The value of 1,3-beta-D-glucan assay for diagnosis of invasive fungal disease with automimmune disease

ObjectiveTo evaluate the diagnostic value of monitoring 1,3-beta-D-glucan (G test) in patients with autoimmune disease complicated with invasive fungal disease (IFD). MethodsA retrospective study was performed in hospitalized patients in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou Universisty who were diagnosed as autoimmune disease with lung infection during the immunosuppressive therapy between January 2014 and January 2016. A total of 372 patients were enrolled in this study. All subjects were classified according to the 2006 diagnostic criteria and treatment of invasive pulmonaary fungal infection, with serum 1,3-β-D-glucan results not included in the diagnosis. There were 18 cases with proven IFD, 35 cases with probable IFD, and 70 ceses with possible IFD. Fifty-three patients with proven IFD or probable IFD were as a case group, and another 249 patients with no evidence for IFD were as a control group. The value of the G test for diagnosis of automimmune disease with IFD was analyzed by ROC curve. ResultsThe serum 1,3-β-D-glucan level was significantly higher in the case group when compared with the control group [median (interquartile range): 135.0 (63.1 to 319.0) pg/ml vs. 75.9 (41.2 to 88.1) pg/ml, P<0.05]. When the cut-off value of serum 1,3-β-D-glucan level was set at 93.8 pg/ml, the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value for diagnosis of autoimmune disease with IFD were 0.65 (95% CI 0.56 to 0.73), 0.87 (95% CI 0.83 to 0.92), 0.70 (95% CI 0.64 to 0.81), and 0.83 (95% CI 0.79 to 0.88), respectively. ConclusionThe 1,3-beta-D-glucan test is a valuable method for diagnosis of IFD in patients with autoimmune disease.

Clinical and Etiology Research of Invasive Pulmonary Fungal Disease

Objective To summarize the clinical features, predisposing factors, diagnosis, therapeutic outcome, and prognosis of invasive pulmonary fungal infection( IPFI) . Methods 90 cases with pathologically proved IPFI, admitted in non-intensive care unit in Xiangya Hospital from January 2005 to February 2012, were retrospectively analyzed. Results The pathogenic examination revealed Aspergillosis in 56 cases( 62. 2% ) , Cryptococcus in 18 cases( 20. 0% ) , Mucormycosis in 6 cases( 6. 7% ) , and Histoplasma in 6 cases( 6. 7% ) , etc. The underlying diseases were reported in 87 cases, and mainly included COPD, pulmonary tuberculosis, and diabetes mellitus. Cough and expectoration were the common clinical symptoms. 49 patients ( 54. 4% ) received long-term and broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy. The CT results revealed masses type in 25 cases( 27. 8%) , nodule lesions type in 15 cases( 16. 7% ) , lung consolidation type in 22 cases( 24. 4% ) , cavity type in 22 cases( 24. 4% ) , aspergilloma type in 6 cases( 6. 7% ) . 47 patients were clinical diagnosed with IPFI before biopsy with preliminary diagnosis accordance rate of 52. 2% . 31 cases ( 34. 4% ) underwent surgical resection of pulmonary lesions, and no recurrence was detected over two-year follow up. 56 cases ( 62. 2% ) received systemic anti-fugal therapy, and 43 cases( 76. 8% ) were cured or significantly improved. 3 cases ( 3. 3% ) refused any therapy. Conclusions The most frequently isolated pathogen of IPFI is Aspergillosis. The mainly underlying diseases are COPD, pulmonary tuberculosis, and diabetes mellitus. Long-termand broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy may be the major risk factor. Pathological examination is needed for final diagnosis. Surgical procedure can achieve optimal prognosis.

Clinical analysis of two patients with frequent acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, both caused by Aspergillus?

ObjectiveTo investigate the role of Aspergillus in the severe refractory exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).MethodsThe clinical data of two COPD patients suffering from refractory acute exacerbations were analyzed and the relevant literature were reviewed.ResultsTwo patients were male, aging 72 and 64 years respectively. Both of them had a history of frequent acute exacerbations with severe COPD recently. Meanwhile, they received intravenous use of antibiotics repeatedly, one of them took oral corticosteroids to control wheezing, but failed. Their serum Aspergillus-specific IgG antibody was weakly positive. Besides traditional treatment, they received additional antifungal therapy, and the symptoms alleviated. There was no acute exacerbation in the half a year follow-up period after appropriate therapy.ConclusionsAspergillus colonization, sensitization, infection should be considered in patients with severe COPD. When Aspergillus-associated evidence are acquired, antifungal therapy will be unexpected helpful.

Risk Factors for Fungal Infection in Adult Recipients Following Living Donor Liver Transplantation

Objective To analyze the risk factors associated with fungal infections in adult recipients after living donor liver transplantation (LDLT). Methods Data of 189 recipients from January 2006 to December 2012 who received LDLT at our center were retrospectively analyzed. Cox regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors for postoperative fungal infections. Results Postoperative fungal infection was found in 12 recipients. The most common infectious site was lung, whereas the most common fungal pathogen was Candida albicans. Multivariate analysis suggested preoperative low albumin level [HR=0.792, 95%CI (0.694, 0.903), P=0.001], massive intraoperative red blood cell transfusion [HR=4.322, 95%CI (1.308, 14.277), P=0.016] and longer postoperative intensive care unit (ICU) stay [HR=3.399, 95%CI (1.004, 11.506), P=0.049] were the independent risk factors for postoperative fungal infections. Conclusions Lung is the most common fungal infection site after LDLT. Preoperative low albumin level, massive intraoperative red blood cell transfusion and longer postoperative ICU contribute to fungal infections after LDLT.

Infected endophthalmitis diagnosed by multiplex polymerase chain reaction

Objective To evaluate the rapid diagnosis of bacterial and (or) fungal endophthalmitis by multiplex polymerase chain reaction (MPCR). Methods MPCR was performed to detect the DNA segment of bacteria and (or) fungi from standard strains and 41 samples of intraocular fluid or vitreous from 38 patients (3 with double eyes and 35 with single), and the results were compared with the cultured bacteria and fungi. Results Five hours after detected by MPCR, bacteria and (or) fungi in 34 out of 41 samples (82.9%) from patients were detected，in cluding bacteria in 26，fungi in 6，and both bacteria and fungi in 2. The positive rate of MPCR was obviously higher than the cultured ones（χ2＝9.60, P＜0.05）. Conclusion With the advantages of rapidity, sensibility, and specificity, MPCR can make for the rapid and definitive diagnosis of bacterial and (or) fungal endophthalmitis.
