Abstract
Background: Updated benchmark data on invasive fungal disease (IFD) in solid organ transplantation (SOT) and hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) recipients are necessary to increase clinical recognition and inform treatment and prevention strategies. We estimated IFD incidence and potential risk factors in transplant recipients in a large US commercial health insurance database.
Methods: We observed patients who received SOT or HCT during 2018-2022 until IFD development, disenrollment, or database end date (July 31, 2023). We calculated incidence (per 1000 person-years) and time to IFD development, comparing demographic features and underlying conditions for IFD versus non-IFD patients.
Results: Overall, 9143 patients received an SOT (5667 kidney, 2025 liver, 759 heart, 650 lung, 39 pancreas, 3 intestine), and 5693 patients received an HCT (3519 autologous, 2114 allogeneic, 60 unspecified type). Among SOT patients, 360 developed an IFD (incidence: 21.0 [per 1000 person-years]). Mold infections had the highest incidence (7.1), followed by unspecified mycoses (3.9) and endemic mycoses (3.3). Among HCT patients, 292 developed an IFD (incidence: 28.5), with higher incidence among allogeneic (58.4) versus autologous (12.8) HCT recipients; among all HCT recipients, unspecified mycoses had the highest incidence (8.3), then pneumocystosis (7.6), and mold infections (6.7). Median time to IFD was 173.5 days for SOT recipients and 197.5 days for HCT recipients. IFD risk varied substantially by transplant type, region, and certain underlying conditions.
Conclusion: Our results suggest that IFDs remain an important cause of infection among SOT and HCT recipients, particularly later in the posttransplant period, and highlight the need for prevention strategies.
期刊介绍：
Transplant Infectious Disease has been established as a forum for presenting the most current information on the prevention and treatment of infection complicating organ and bone marrow transplantation. The point of view of the journal is that infection and allograft rejection (or graft-versus-host disease) are closely intertwined, and that advances in one area will have immediate consequences on the other. The interaction of the transplant recipient with potential microbial invaders, the impact of immunosuppressive strategies on this interaction, and the effects of cytokines, growth factors, and chemokines liberated during the course of infections, rejection, or graft-versus-host disease are central to the interests and mission of this journal.
Transplant Infectious Disease is aimed at disseminating the latest information relevant to the infectious disease complications of transplantation to clinicians and scientists involved in bone marrow, kidney, liver, heart, lung, intestinal, and pancreatic transplantation. The infectious disease consequences and concerns regarding innovative transplant strategies, from novel immunosuppressive agents to xenotransplantation, are very much a concern of this journal. In addition, this journal feels a particular responsibility to inform primary care practitioners in the community, who increasingly are sharing the responsibility for the care of these patients, of the special considerations regarding the prevention and treatment of infection in transplant recipients. As exemplified by the international editorial board, articles are sought throughout the world that address both general issues and those of a more restricted geographic import.
