概括
降低免疫抑制 (IS) 是一种安全和有效的第一方法,用于在异种HCT后对爱斯坦-巴尔病毒 (EBV) 重活化. 这一策略显著降低了在EBV重新激活管理中需要Rituximab的需求.
科学领域:
- 血液学 血液学 血液学
- 免疫学 免疫学 免疫学
- 传染性疾病 传染性疾病
背景情况:
- 爱斯坦-巴尔病毒 (EBV) 再激活是全源造血干细胞移植 (HCT) 接受者的风险,可能导致移植后淋巴增殖障碍 (PTLD) 或末端器官疾病.
- 目前的指导方针建议使用PCR和先发性rituximab监测EBV活性,尽管证据有限,并且对rituximab的副作用,如长时间的B细胞枯竭和低血糖球蛋白血症,存在担忧.
研究的目的:
- 评估降低免疫抑制 (IS) 的安全性和有效性,作为管理EBV重新激活在异种HCT接受者的首要策略.
- 为了确定Rituximab的使用率,当IS减少是初始治疗方法时.
主要方法:
- 一个回顾性,单中心研究,涉及328名异性HCT受体.
- 评估了经历了EBV重新激活的患者的结果,并将IS减少作为第一线治疗.
- 利图西马布被保留给那些对IS减少无反应的患者或那些患有EBV末端器官疾病或PTLD的患者.
主要成果:
- 在54.6%的患者 (178/328) 中发生了EBV重新激活.
- 只有6.7%的患者 (12/178) 需要Rituximab.
- 没有观察到PTLD病例;EBV脑炎发生在2.2%的重新激活患者中.
- EBV的再激活与慢性GVHD相关,但没有影响非复发性死亡率或整体存活率.
结论:
- 降低IS是一种安全有效的初始治疗EBV再激活在HCT接受者与EBVDNAemia上升.
- 这种方法显著减少了对rituximab的需求,从而可能减轻了与之相关的风险.

Infection
When a pathogen enters the body and reproduces, it can cause an infection, damage body cells, and cause illness symptoms that eventually lead to disease. Therefore, its prevention requires breaking the chain of infection.
The chain begins with pathogens: bacteria, viruses, fungi, prions, or parasites such as protozoa helminths. These can be present on the skin as transient or resident flora, or they can be acquired from the environment. Identifying and treating the type of infection and...

Smallpox
Smallpox is a severe contagious disease caused by the Variola major virus, a double-stranded DNA member of the Poxviridae family.Variola major transmission occurs primarily via inhalation of virus-laden droplets or direct contact with infectious scabs. The incubation period averages approximately seven days, although it may range from 7 to 17 days depending on the inoculum and host factors.Clinically, the prodromal phase is marked by an abrupt onset of high fever, malaise, headache, and myalgia.
