    Clinical outcome from hematopoietic cell transplant patients with bloodstream infection caused by carbapenem-resistant P. aeruginosa and the impact of antimicrobial combination in vitro
    (2022) RAMOS, Jessica Fernandes; LEITE, Gleice; MARTINS, Roberta Cristina Ruedas; RIZEK, Camila; SANABANI, Sabri Saeed Al; ROSSI, Flavia; GUIMARAES, Thais; LEVIN, Anna Sara; ROCHA, Vanderson; COSTA, Silvia Figueiredo
    Bloodstream infection (BSI) caused by carbapenem-resistant P. aeruginosa (CRPA) has high mortality in hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) recipients. We performed MIC, checkerboard, time-kill assay, PFGE, PCR, and whole genome sequence and described the clinical outcome through Epi Info comparing the antimicrobial combination in vitro. Mortality was higher in BSI caused by CRPA carrying the lasB virulence gene. The isolates were 97% resistant to meropenem displaying synergistic effect to 57% in combination with colistin. Seventy-three percent of the isolates harbored bla(SPM-1) and Tn4371 and belonged to ST277. The synergistic effect in vitro with meropenem with colistin appeared to be a better therapeutic option.

    Prevalence of latent Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation comparing tuberculin skin test and interferon-gamma release assay
    (2023) CASTRO-LIMA, Victor A. C.; SANTOS, Ana Paula T.; MUSQUEIRA, Priscila T.; MALUF, Natalya Z.; RAMOS, Jessica F.; MARIANO, Livia; ROCHA, Vanderson; COSTA, Silvia F.
    The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of latent Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation candidates, using tuberculin skin test and QuantiFERON-TB Gold-Plus, in a high-burden tuberculosis country. Adult candidates for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation performed both tests before and those submitted to transplantation were followed up for 12 months. The prevalence of latent Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection was 17.1% and a moderate agreement between QuantiFERON-TB Gold-Plus and tuberculin skin test was observed in this population. Previous tuberculosis exposure was a risk factor for latent Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. No cases of tuberculosis were diagnosed during follow-up period.
