摘要
将新型曲霉菌半乳甘露聚糖Ag VirCLIA® 单检测试剂盒(Vircell S.L.公司)的分析性能与Platelia™曲霉菌Ag ELISA检测试剂盒(Bio-Rad公司)进行了比较。使用曲霉菌半乳甘露聚糖 Ag VirCLIA® 单项检测法和 Platelia™ 曲霉菌 Ag ELISA 检测法检测了有侵袭性曲霉菌病(IA)风险的患者的前瞻性血清和支气管肺泡灌洗液(BAL)样本。使用制造商推荐的临界值计算了一致性、灵敏度、特异性以及阳性和阴性预测值。为确定最佳临界值,还进行了接收者操作特征(ROC)分析和尤登指数(Youden index)分析。两种检测方法共分析了 187 份血清样本和 73 份 BAL 样本。曲霉菌半乳甘露聚糖 Ag VirCLIA® 单检测法与 Platelia™ 曲霉菌 Ag ELISA 检测法的一致性为 87.8%,科恩卡帕值为 0.75。曲霉菌半乳甘露聚糖 Ag VirCLIA® 单项检测的灵敏度和特异性分别为 78.6% 和 96.2%,阳性和阴性预测值分别为 94.8% 和 83.3%。曲霉菌半乳甘露聚糖 Ag VirCLIA® 单检测试剂盒的 ROC 曲线显示曲线下面积 (AUC) 为 0.87,在制造商设定的临界值下,尤登指数为 0.73。这种新型曲霉菌半乳甘露聚糖 Ag VirCLIA® 单检测试剂盒具有良好的分析和临床性能,与 Platelia™ 曲霉菌 Ag ELISA 检测试剂盒具有良好的相关性。这种单样品半自动检测方法操作简便,小型实验室可按需进行检测,无需批量评估,为临床医生及时提供诊断支持提供了有用的解决方案。
Evaluation of a New Automated Mono-Test for the Detection of Aspergillus Galactomannan: Comparison of Aspergillus Galactomannan Ag VirCLIA® Mono-Test with PlateliaTMAspergillus Ag ELISA Assay.
The analytical performance of the new Aspergillus Galactomannan Ag VirCLIA® mono-test (Vircell S.L.) was compared to the Platelia™ Aspergillus Ag ELISA assay (Bio-Rad). Prospective serum and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) samples from patients at risk of invasive aspergillosis (IA) were tested using both the Aspergillus Galactomannan Ag VirCLIA® mono-test and the Platelia™ Aspergillus Ag ELISA assay. Concordance, sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values were calculated using the manufacturer-recommended cutoff levels. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis and the Youden index were performed to determine the optimal cutoff. A total of 187 serum samples and 73 BAL samples were analyzed with both assays. The concordance between the Aspergillus Galactomannan Ag VirCLIA® mono-test and the Platelia™ Aspergillus Ag ELISA assay was 87.8%, with a Cohen's kappa of 0.75. The sensitivity and specificity of the Aspergillus Galactomannan Ag VirCLIA® mono-test were 78.6% and 96.2%, respectively, with positive and negative predictive values of 94.8% and 83.3%. The ROC curve for the Aspergillus Galactomannan Ag VirCLIA® mono-test demonstrated an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.87, and the Youden index at the manufacturer's established cutoff was 0.73. This new Aspergillus Galactomannan Ag VirCLIA® mono-test exhibited adequate analytical and clinical performance, showing good correlation with the Platelia™ Aspergillus Ag ELISA assay. The single-sample, semi-automated test is user-friendly, allowing small laboratories to perform the test on demand without the need for batch evaluations, providing a useful solution for timely diagnostic support for clinicians.
