Blood and other materials from HSCT recipients were tested (PCR) for viral DNA in early post-transplant period (up to Day 100).   Results. Reactivation of viral infections after HSCT was discovered in 177 patients (52,2 %): CMV-infection was detected in 23 %, HHV-6 in 17,4 %, CMV+HHV-6 in 11,6 % of HSCT recipients. CMV DNA was predominantly identified in blood, while HHV-6 DNA was more frequently discovered in GIT mucosa and bone marrow. 40 % of 99 patients with HHV-6 reactivation had concomitant CMV+HHV-6 reactivation. In this group, the clinical manifestation of infections was registered significantly more frequently. Febrile neutropenia was more frequent in HSCT recipients with CMV reactivation, sepsis and graft hypofunction were diagnosed more frequently in presence of HHV-6 and predominantly HHV-6+CMV infections. The direct correlation (using Spearman’s method) between CMV and HHV-6 reactivation and terms of leukopoiesis recovery, engraftment terms, and transplant hypofunction was revealed. An impact of herpetic infections reactivation on the graft hypofunction and late recovery of leukopoiesis was confirmed using the logistic regression; its impact on the chimerism was revealed. In 72 % of cases, the graft failure in early post-transplant period occurred in patients with herpetic infections reactivation.   Conclusion. HHV-6 and CMV reactivation in the early period after HSCT correlates with terms of leukopoiesis recovery, contributes to development of complications, and is an additional factor aggravating the course of the post-transplant period.","PeriodicalId":226950,"journal":{"name":"Journal Infectology","volume":"70 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127712499","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A comparative analysis of cases of IA, the results of therapy and outcomes in patients after allo-HSCT in the RM Gorbacheva Research Institute was performed. Diagnostic criteria EORTC / MSGERC 2020 were used.   Results. Invasive aspergillosis caused by A. non-fumigatus made up the majority (60.6 %) of IA cases with an identified pathogen registered in patients after allo-HSCT in the period from 2016 to 2021. The main etiological agents in the A. non-fumigatus group were A. niger in 13 (65 %) patients, A. flavus – in 4 (20 %). The median day of diagnosis of A. non-fumigatus IAwas + 110 days (17–2093), for A. fumigatus it was + 46 days (2–866) (p = 0.171).

Evaluation of laboratory and instrumental data was carried out using the Mann-Whitney U-test. The level of statistical significance was p≤0,05. The neural network was trained using the Pytorch framework.   Results: in patients with mild to moderate SARS-CoV-2 infection, peripheral oxygen saturation, erythrocytes, hemoglobin, total protein, albumin, hematocrit, serum iron, transferrin, and absolute peripheral blood eosinophil and lymphocyte counts were significantly higher than in patients with severe СOVID-19 (p< 0,001). The values of the absolute number of neutrophils, ESR, glucose, ALT, AST, CPK, urea, LDH, ferritin, CRP, fibrinogen, D-dimer, respiration rate, heart rate, blood pressure in the group of patients with mild and moderate severity were statistically significantly lower than in the group of severe patients (p < 0.001). Eleven indicators were identified as predictors of severe COVID-19 (peripheral oxygen level, peripheral blood erythrocyte count, hemoglobin level, absolute eosinophil count, absolute lymphocyte count, absolute neutrophil count, LDH, ferritin, C-reactive protein, D-dimer levels) and their threshold values.

The diagnosis was confirmed by PCR on an outpatient basis or after hospitalization with the help of diagnostic kits registered in the Russian Federation. The features of the work of a children’s multidisciplinary hospital in new conditions, the dynamics of hospitalization, age characteristics and new coronavirus (CV) infection severity in the pandemic development process are presented. The analysis of the underlying condition’s structure depending on the severity of the disease, as well as the need and volume of therapy in the intensive care unit. The frequency and main characteristics of children’s multisystem inflammatory syndrome (MIS-C) in hospital conditions, long-term PCR positivity and its effect on the duration of inpatient treatment of children have been established.Results: The spread of SARS-COV-2 in St. Petersburg required a radical change in the work of the children’s multidisciplinary hospital. During the two years of the pandemic, four waves of hospitalization of children with new CV were revealed, differing in duration, intensity, and frequency of lung damage, but having no significant differences in the proportion of severe forms of the disease (1.7-2.8% of cases). Intensive therapy was required in 3.6% of cases, of which only 1/3 was due to the severe course of COVID-19 with a lung lesion volume of up to 100%. In 1/3 of cases, patients had risks of developing severe forms and in 1/3 – other pathology. Severe course of new CV was significantly more often accompanied by the need for respiratory support, anticoagulants and anti-inflammatory therapy. Contributing factors of severe forms and unfavorable outcomes were: pathology of the central nervous system, genetic diseases and malformations, obesity, as well as chronic bronchopulmonary pathology. Mortality in the hospital was recorded only among children with severe underlying conditions (0.1% of cases).

The outcome of hospitalization was chosen as the primary endpoint of the study: discharge or 28day mortality. Death within 6 months after discharge and the development of complications related to COVID-19 during this period were considered as secondary endpoints.
