Introduction

Systemic sclerosis is a complex autoimmune disease with significant morbidity and mortality, primarily due to pulmonary complications, including diffuse interstitial lung disease and pulmonary hypertension. The disease course is unpredictable due to its heterogeneous presentation. Our study aimed to form homogeneous cohorts of patients with severe visceral systemic sclerosis and assess their prognoses.

Materials and methods

We conducted a single-center retrospective observational study on 198 patients. These patients were clustered based on factors associated with poor disease prognosis using a bottom-up hierarchical clustering technique.

Results

We identified four clusters in our population. Cluster 1 (n = 25) included 89 % of patients with pulmonary hypertension, 64 % of whom had associated interstitial lung disease. Cluster 2 (n = 11) included all patients with scleroderma renal crisis, 27 % of whom developed pulmonary hypertension. Cluster 3 (n = 109) exclusively consisted of female patients, 90 % of whom had a limited cutaneous form, with 62 % presenting anticentromere antibodies. These patients did not exhibit severe pulmonary disease. Cluster 4 (n = 53) included patients with significant occupational exposure, 79 % of whom had diffused interstitial lung disease and 83 % had anti-topoisomerase I antibodies. The survival rate was significantly lower in cluster 1 (p < 0.001).

Conclusion

This study characterized systemic sclerosis phenotypes, highlighting the heterogeneity in clinical presentation and disease course. The trajectory of patients within each cluster was associated with the onset of pulmonary hypertension onset, which adversely affected the prognosis.
系统性硬化症是一种复杂的自身免疫性疾病,发病率和死亡率很高,主要是由于肺部并发症,包括弥漫性间质性肺疾病和肺动脉高压。由于其异质表现,病程难以预测。我们的研究旨在形成严重内脏系统性硬化症患者的同质队列并评估他们的预后。材料与方法对198例患者进行单中心回顾性观察性研究。采用自下而上分层聚类技术,根据与疾病预后不良相关的因素对这些患者进行聚类。结果我们在人群中确定了四个群集。第1组(n = 25)包括89%的肺动脉高压患者,其中64%的患者伴有间质性肺疾病。第2组(n = 11)包括所有硬皮病肾危象患者,其中27%发生肺动脉高压。第3组(n = 109)完全由女性患者组成,其中90%有有限的皮肤形式,62%出现抗着丝粒抗体。这些患者没有表现出严重的肺部疾病。第4组(n = 53)包括有明显职业暴露的患者,其中79%患有弥漫性间质性肺病,83%有抗拓扑异构酶I抗体。第1组的存活率明显较低(p <;0.001)。结论本研究具有系统性硬化症的表型特征,突出了临床表现和病程的异质性。每组患者的发展轨迹与肺动脉高压的发病相关,这对预后有不利影响。

Rationale

To investigate whether gastroesophageal reflux with laryngopharyngeal reflux and aspiration play a role in the pathogenesis of bronchiectasis and Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) pulmonary infection.

Methods

In this prospective case-control study, subjects included 31 patients with bronchiectasis undergoing bronchoscopy to investigate suspected MAC infection and 9 control subjects undergoing bronchoscopy for alternative reasons. Patients drank 45 mL of FD&C Blue #1 mixed with 200 mL of tap water the night prior to bronchoscopy. During bronchoscopy, the bronchial mucosa was inspected for the presence of blue dye staining. Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) samples were obtained from the most affected segments on CT scan and were cultured for mycobacteria and assayed for pepsin and bile acids. Gastric aspirate samples were obtained for mycobacterial culture.

Results

93.8% of patients with confirmed pulmonary MAC infection and 91.7% of patients with evidence of bronchiectasis by CT scan, but negative mycobacterial cultures, had blue dye staining of the bronchial mucosa vs. 11.3% of control patients (p < 0.001). Areas of abnormality on CT correlated with airways demonstrating blue staining by bronchoscopy in 100% of MAC patients and 90.9% of patients with bronchiectasis and negative mycobacterial cultures. MAC patients had higher median BAL pepsin levels compared to combined MAC negative patients (subjects with bronchiectasis and negative mycobacterial cultures and true controls), 5.4 ng/mL vs. 3.4 ng/mL (p = 0.019). 78.6% of MAC patients vs. 26.3% of combined MAC negative patients had BAL bile acid concentrations of >/= 0.493 uM (p = 0.005). There was no significant difference in age, supraglottic index, reflux symptoms, gastric pH, or proton pump inhibitor use between the MAC positive vs. MAC negative patients. 42.8% of patients with growth of MAC on BAL also had growth of MAC in the gastric aspirate.

Conclusions

Reflux and aspiration of gastric contents into the airways show a strong association with bronchiectasis and may be associated with MAC pulmonary disease. The novel method introduced in this study of drinking blue dye the evening prior to bronchoscopy should be utilized in the evaluation of infectious and inflammatory lung diseases in which aspiration may play a role.
目的探讨胃食管反流合并喉咽反流和误吸是否在支气管扩张和鸟分枝杆菌复合体(MAC)肺部感染的发病机制中起作用。方法本前瞻性病例对照研究纳入31例支气管扩张患者行支气管镜检查疑似MAC感染,9例对照组因其他原因行支气管镜检查。患者在支气管镜检查前一晚饮用45毫升FD&;C Blue #1与200毫升自来水混合。支气管镜检查时,检查支气管黏膜是否有蓝色染色。支气管肺泡灌洗液(BAL)在CT扫描上从最受影响的节段获得,进行分枝杆菌培养和胃蛋白酶和胆汁酸检测。结果93.8%的确诊肺MAC感染患者和91.7%的CT扫描支气管扩张患者有支气管粘膜蓝色染色,但分枝杆菌培养阴性,对照组为11.3% (p <;0.001)。在100%的MAC患者和90.9%的支气管扩张和分枝杆菌培养阴性的患者中,CT上的异常区域与支气管镜显示蓝色染色的气道相关。与合并MAC阴性患者(支气管扩张和分枝杆菌培养阴性的受试者和真正的对照组)相比,MAC患者的中位BAL胃蛋白酶水平更高,分别为5.4 ng/mL和3.4 ng/mL (p = 0.019)。78.6%的MAC患者与26.3%的联合MAC阴性患者BAL胆汁酸浓度为>;/= 0.493 uM (p = 0.005)。MAC阳性与MAC阴性患者在年龄、声门上指数、反流症状、胃pH值或质子泵抑制剂使用方面无显著差异。42.8%在BAL上有MAC生长的患者在胃吸液中也有MAC生长。结论胃内容物反流和吸入气道与支气管扩张密切相关,并可能与MAC肺部疾病有关。本研究中介绍的在支气管镜检查前晚上饮用蓝色染料的新方法应用于评估可能与误吸有关的感染性和炎症性肺部疾病。

Introduction

Pleural infection is a high-mortality disease with a rising incidence in the past two decades. The knowledge of the main causative organisms is an important step for appropriate treatment. This study aims to describe etiologic and antibiotic resistance features of non-tuberculous pleural infections in adults in a tertiary care center specializing in the treatment of respiratory diseases.

Methods

This retrospective study was conducted at the microbiology laboratory of Abderrahmen Mami pneumology and phthisiology hospital, Ariana, Tunisia from January 2014 to December 2023. Pleural fluid samples were collected from adult patients with pleural effusion, from any cause, admitted to the different clinical services. Bacterial isolation and identification were performed by conventional techniques. The disk diffusion and the Vitek 2 methods were used for the susceptibility testing.

Results

During the study period, 5235 pleural fluid specimens were included. The sex ratio M/F was 2:1, and the median age was 57 years (interquartile range: 43–68 years). Culture was positive in 9.6 % of all cases, and in 31.4 % of purulent pleural fluids. The Gram stain had 41.5 % (95 % CI 35.6–47.6) sensitivity and 99.8 % (95 % CI 99.6–99.9) specificity in detecting microorganisms. A pleural fluid leukocyte count >10,000/mL showed a sensitivity of 51.4 % (95 % CI 47.7–55.8) and a specificity of 91.7 % (95 % CI 90.8–92.4). A total of 544 microorganisms were isolated. The main causative microorganisms were viridans streptococci group (32.1 %), Enterobacteriaceae (25.3 %), Staphylococcus aureus (10.2 %), and anaerobes (9.3 %). Among Enterobacteriaceae, 19 % were resistant to third-generation cephalosporins and 6.4 % to carbapenems. The resistance to penicillin G was detected in 19 % of the viridans streptococci group. Methicilline Resistant Staphylococcus aureus percentage was 14.2 %.

Conclusion

Conventional culture yielded 31.4 % positivity in purulent pleural fluids, and Gram-positive organisms were the leading cause of non-tuberculous pleural infections in adults over the past ten years. These results highlight the need for new molecular methods to improve culture-negative empyema diagnosis.
胸膜感染是近二十年来发病率不断上升的高死亡率疾病。了解主要致病生物是进行适当治疗的重要一步。本研究旨在描述成人非结核性胸膜感染的病因学和抗生素耐药性特征,在三级护理中心专门治疗呼吸系统疾病。方法回顾性研究于2014年1月至2023年12月在突尼斯Ariana Abderrahmen Mami肺炎和生理学医院微生物实验室进行。收集来自不同临床服务的任何原因的胸腔积液的成年患者的胸膜液样本。采用常规技术进行细菌分离鉴定。药敏试验采用纸片扩散法和Vitek 2法。结果在研究期间共抽取5235份胸膜液标本。性别比M/F为2:1,年龄中位数为57岁(四分位数间距为43-68岁)。9.6% %的病例培养阳性,31.4% %的脓性胸膜液培养阳性。革兰氏染色检测微生物的灵敏度为41.5 %(95 % CI 35.6 ~ 47.6),特异性为99.8 %(95 % CI 99.6 ~ 99.9)。胸膜液白细胞计数1万/mL的敏感性为51.4 %(95 % CI 47.7-55.8),特异性为91.7 %(95 % CI 90.8-92.4)。共分离出微生物544株。主要病原菌为绿杆菌链球菌群(32.1% %)、肠杆菌科(25.3% %)、金黄色葡萄球菌(10. %)和厌氧菌(9.3% %)。肠杆菌科病原菌对第三代头孢菌素耐药率为19% %,对碳青霉烯类耐药率为6.4 %。青绿链球菌组中有19. %对青霉素G耐药。耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌百分比为14.2% %。结论化脓性胸膜液常规培养阳性率为31.4% %,革兰氏阳性菌是近10年来成人非结核性胸膜感染的主要原因。这些结果强调需要新的分子方法来提高培养阴性脓胸的诊断。

Background

Sitting to supine fall in vital capacity (∆VC) is commonly used to screen for diaphragmatic dysfunction (DD), but the predictive threshold value varies.
This systematic review aimed to compare the position-dependent change in vital capacity (VC) in patients with objectively confirmed DD.

Research question

What is the optimal predictive value of ∆VC to diagnose DD.

Study design and methods

We searched Medline/PubMed, Embase and Scopus, including backward citations, for studies from database inception to December 5, 2023. Included trials measured position change in VC in adult patients with DD, confirmed independently by a parameter other than ∆VC. Risk of bias was assessed using the Downs and Black checklist.

Results

Of 497 records identified, 10 studies were included, totalling 393 adults, of which 284 had DD. In patients with confirmed unilateral diaphragmatic paralysis, mean change in VC ranged from 7 to 23%, and in those with bilateral diaphragmatic paralysis, from 19 to 37%. In studies providing only values for DD without specifying unilateral or bilateral involvement, it ranged from 31 to 42%. In control groups, it ranged from 3 to 9%.

Interpretation

The change in VC appears to be a valid test for confirming DD when using a cut-off value of 20%, though this approach results in very low sensitivity.
A cut-off value of 15% should be used in a screening setting as an initial approach of a multimodal strategy, without being sensible enough to exclude milder forms of DD.
坐至仰卧的肺活量下降(∆VC)通常用于筛查膈功能障碍(DD),但预测阈值各不相同。本系统综述旨在比较客观确诊的dd患者体位依赖性肺活量(VC)变化。研究问题∆VC诊断dd的最佳预测价值是什么?研究设计和方法我们检索了Medline/PubMed、Embase和Scopus,包括反向引用,检索了从数据库建立到2023年12月5日的研究。纳入的试验测量了成年DD患者的VC位置变化,由∆VC以外的参数独立证实。使用Downs和Black检查表评估偏倚风险。结果在497项记录中,纳入了10项研究,共393名成年人,其中284名患有DD。在确诊的单侧膈肌麻痹患者中,VC的平均变化范围为7%至23%,在双侧膈肌麻痹患者中,VC的平均变化范围为19%至37%。在仅提供DD值而未指定单侧或双侧受累的研究中,其范围为31%至42%。在对照组中,这一比例从3%到9%不等。当使用截断值20%时,VC的变化似乎是确认DD的有效测试,尽管这种方法导致非常低的灵敏度。作为多模式策略的初始方法,在筛查设置中应使用15%的临界值,但不能合理到足以排除较轻形式的DD。

The use of long-acting muscarinic antagonists (LAMA) in asthma is supported by their mechanism of action and evidence of drug synergy with inhaled corticosteroids ± long-acting β-agonists. This review discusses the scientific rationale, clinical data, and recommendations for the use of LAMA in the asthma therapeutic strategy. Adding a LAMA to a dual therapy with an inhaled corticosteroid and long-acting β-agonist has been shown to reduce exacerbations, increase asthma control, and improve quality of life, with a good safety profile. In addition, using a single inhaler device containing multiple drugs enhances patients’ adherence to therapy. Some predictive factors of the efficacy of this triple therapy have been suggested in the literature: patients with a history of at least one exacerbation within the past 12 months, male patients, those younger than 65 years, and non-smokers have been reported to have a greater improvement from baseline forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) compared with patients without these characteristics, while patients with high bronchial hyperresponsiveness and persistent airway limitations (PAL) seem to show better gains in the exacerbation rate. However, eosinophil levels do not seem to predict the efficacy of LAMA. The role and long-term benefits of LAMA combined with biologic therapy in severe asthma remain uncertain, with more clinical data needed.
长效毒蕈碱拮抗剂(LAMA)的作用机制和与吸入皮质类固醇±长效β激动剂的药物协同作用的证据支持其在哮喘中的应用。这篇综述讨论了在哮喘治疗策略中使用LAMA的科学依据、临床数据和建议。在吸入皮质类固醇和长效β激动剂的双重治疗中加入LAMA已被证明可减少恶化,增加哮喘控制,改善生活质量,并具有良好的安全性。此外,使用含有多种药物的单一吸入器装置可以提高患者对治疗的依从性。文献中提出了三联疗法疗效的一些预测因素:据报道,与没有这些特征的患者相比,过去12个月内至少有一次急性发作史的患者、男性患者、年龄小于65岁的患者和非吸烟者的1秒用力呼气量(FEV1)基线改善更大,而支气管高反应性和持续性气道受限(PAL)患者的急性发作率似乎有更好的改善。然而,嗜酸性粒细胞水平似乎不能预测LAMA的疗效。LAMA联合生物治疗在严重哮喘中的作用和长期益处仍不确定,需要更多的临床数据。

Background

Severe exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (ECOPD) require hospitalization in intensive care unit (ICU) in 10 % of cases. This study aims to describe current practices for the management of severe ECOPD in the ICU and to evaluate adherence to the 2017 French guidelines.

Methods

From March to May 2019, we conducted a cross-sectional multicenter survey across 80 ICUs in France. A 9-item questionnaire exploring physicians practices in terms of diagnostic workup and management of severe ECOPD was sent to participating centers.

Results

Four hundred and thirty-eight physicians responded to the survey, 75 % were senior physicians, 39 % were certified medical intensivists and 67 % worked in a medical or respiratory ICU. Nebulized short-acting beta agonists prescription was mostly driven by the presence of wheezing, silent chest or respiratory failure, even though guidelines recommend them systematically for ECOPD (moderate adhesion to guidelines). Antibiotic prescription was mostly driven by increased sputum purulence and volume, fever, signs of respiratory distress or the severity of the underlying COPD, but was not deemed systematic in case of severity signs (poor adhesion to guidelines). Regarding the use of biomarkers for antibiotics prescription, adhesion to guidelines was moderate. The prescription of systemic corticosteroids was not deemed systematic but was rather considered if no improvement was observed 72 h after admission (good adhesion to guidelines).

Conclusion

Reported management of severe ECOPD does not follow all guidelines. Future works should focus on understanding barriers to clinical practice guidelines implementation.
慢性阻塞性肺疾病(ECOPD)的严重恶化需要在重症监护病房(ICU)住院治疗的病例占10%。本研究旨在描述ICU重症ECOPD管理的当前实践,并评估2017年法国指南的遵守情况。方法2019年3月至5月,我们对法国80个icu进行了横断面多中心调查。向各参与中心发送一份包含9个项目的调查问卷,探讨医生在重症ECOPD诊断检查和管理方面的做法。结果共有438名医生参与调查,其中75%为高级医师,39%为注册重症医师,67%在内科或呼吸内科ICU工作。雾化短效β受体激动剂处方主要是由于存在喘息,胸闷或呼吸衰竭,即使指南系统地推荐用于ECOPD(中度粘附指南)。抗生素处方主要是由痰脓和痰量增加、发烧、呼吸窘迫迹象或潜在慢性阻塞性肺病的严重程度引起的,但如果出现严重症状(对指南的依从性差),则不被认为是系统性的。关于抗生素处方中生物标志物的使用,对指南的依从性是中等的。全体性皮质类固醇的处方不被认为是全体性的,但如果入院后72小时未观察到改善(对指南的良好粘附性),则应考虑使用全体性皮质类固醇。结论报告的重症ECOPD的处理不符合所有指南。未来的工作应侧重于了解临床实践指南实施的障碍。

Background

The ISHLT guidelines recommend early referral to a lung transplantation (LTx) center for patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) due to the unpredictable course. To our knowledge, no study has assessed the impact of forced vital capacity (FVC) reduction severity on LTx outcomes in ILD. This study aims to determine whether the severity of FVC reduction is associated with post-transplant outcomes in ILD.

Methods and Results

Recipients from the French multicentric COLT cohort who underwent lung transplantation for ILD were included in this study. FVC was assessed to determine if the severity of its reduction is associated with post-transplant outcomes. 311 recipients were included in the study. FVC was identified as a significant risk factor for mortality at one year in multivariate analysis (p = 0.003). The ROC curve for FVC estimated the probability of death at one year with an area under the curve of 64 % (95 % confidence interval 57–71 %) and defined an optimal FVC threshold of 46 %. Recipients with an FVC ≤46 % were more likely to be listed as emergency cases, had lower FVC at one year, and exhibited reduced short- and long-term survival.

Conclusions

The severity of pre-transplant FVC reduction is a risk factor for poorer post-transplant outcomes. The findings should stimulate discussion about benefits of LTx for patients with lower FVC. An FVC threshold of ≤46 % should be considered in discussions about lung transplantation indications, decisions regarding single lung transplantation, and the selection of smaller donor lungs. Respirologists managing patients with ILD should consider early referral to a LTx center.
背景:ISHLT指南建议间质性肺疾病(ILD)患者由于病程不可预测,应尽早转诊至肺移植(LTx)中心。据我们所知,没有研究评估过强迫肺活量(FVC)降低严重程度对ILD患者LTx结果的影响。本研究旨在确定FVC减少的严重程度是否与ILD移植后的预后相关。方法和结果来自法国多中心COLT队列的因ILD接受肺移植的受者被纳入本研究。评估FVC以确定其减少的严重程度是否与移植后的预后相关。311名接受者参与了这项研究。在多变量分析中,FVC被确定为一年死亡率的重要危险因素(p = 0.003)。FVC的ROC曲线估计一年内死亡的概率,曲线下面积为64%(95%置信区间为57 - 71%),并定义了最佳FVC阈值为46%。FVC≤46%的受者更有可能被列为急诊病例,一年后FVC较低,短期和长期生存率均较低。结论移植前FVC降低的严重程度是导致移植后预后较差的危险因素。这一发现应该激发关于LTx对低FVC患者益处的讨论。在讨论肺移植适应症、决定单肺移植和选择较小供肺时,应考虑FVC阈值≤46%。处理ILD患者的呼吸科医生应考虑尽早转诊到LTx中心。
