摘要
背景:现有数据表明,实体器官受者巨细胞病毒(CMV)特异性细胞介导免疫(CMV- cmi)可能预测移植后巨细胞病毒感染,但现有信息仍然有限,需要在某些情况下对更大的患者群体进行验证。本研究旨在确定CMV- cmi是否可以预测肝移植受者(LTRs)接受抗病毒预防(AVP)后的移植后CMV感染。方法:回顾性分析猪野大学肝移植研究所1769例LTRs。采用CMV-干扰素(CMV- qf; CMV- qf)对接受AVP治疗的334例患者CMV- cmi进行分析,其中CMV供体[D]阳性/受体[R]阳性的CMV- 91%;QuantiFERON-CMV, Qiagen, Germany)在移植前一周内检测。患者分为两组:1组(阳性;N = 171, 51.2%)和2组(阴性;N = 163, 48.8%)。对患者变量进行统计分析。结果:124例ltr发生巨细胞病毒感染。移植前患者的CMV-CMI结果无显著差异。CMV-CMI阳性的LTRs发生感染的比例明显低于阴性的LTRs (7.6% vs 68.1%, P < 0.001)。所有CMV-CMI阳性患者在抗病毒治疗后均完全康复,但CMV-CMI阴性的lts只有76.6% (P = 0.032)。Logistic回归分析显示,CMV- cmi阴性患者感染CMV的风险是CMV- cmi阳性患者的26倍(优势比[OR] = 25.9, P < 0.001)。AVP停止后,女性受体比男性受体更早发生巨细胞病毒感染(中位数= 128 vs 144天,P = 0.038)。结论:移植前CMV- cmi的状态可能是AVP术后ltr移植后CMV感染的一个重要指标。因此,对于CMV-CMI阴性的LTRs应进一步考虑。
Predictive Value of Pretransplant Cytomegalovirus-Specific Cellular Immunity for Posttransplant CMV Infection in Liver Transplant Recipients Under Antiviral Prophylaxis.
Background: Existing data suggest that cytomegalovirus (CMV)-specific cell-mediated immunity (CMV-CMI) in solid organ recipients may predict post-transplant CMV infection, but the available information is still limited, and needs to be validated for larger patient populations under certain circumstances. This study aimed to determine whether CMV-CMI could predict post-transplant CMV infection in liver transplant recipients (LTRs) receiving antiviral prophylaxis (AVP).
Methods: A total of 1769 LTRs at the Inonu University Liver Transplantation Institute were retrospectively analyzed. CMV-CMI in a total of 334 patients (> 91% were CMV donor [D] positive/recipient [R] positive) who received AVP were analyzed using the CMV-Interferon (CMV-QF; QuantiFERON-CMV, Qiagen, Germany) assay within the week before transplantation. Patients were divided into two groups: group 1 (positive; n = 171, 51.2%) and group 2 (negative; n = 163, 48.8%). Patient variables were analyzed statistically.
Results: A total of 124 LTRs developed CMV infection. Patients' pre-transplant characteristics did not differ significantly by their CMV-CMI result. A significantly lower percentage of LTRs with CMV-CMI positive developed infection than those with negatives (7.6% vs 68.1%, P < .001). All CMV-CMI positive patients fully recovered with antiviral treatment but only 76.6% of LTRs with negative CMV-CMI (P = .032). Logistic regression analysis showed that a negative CMV-CMI was associated with a 26 times increased risk of CMV infection compared to those with positive CMV-CMI (odds ratio [OR] = 25.9, P < .001). Female recipients developed CMV infection earlier after cessation of AVP than male recipients (median = 128 vs 144 days, P = .038).
Conclusions: The pre-transplant status of CMV-CMI may be a strong indicator of post-transplant CMV infection for LTRs receiving AVP. Therefore, further consideration should be made for the LTRs with negative CMV-CMI.
