    Strongyloides infection screening in transplant candidates: What is the best strategy?
    (2023) GRYSCHEK, Ronaldo Cesar Borges; CORRAL, Marcelo Andreetta; SITTA, Renata Barnabe; GOTTARDI, Maiara; PIERROTTI, Ligia Camera; COSTA, Silvia Figueiredo; ABDALA, Edson; CHIEFFI, Pedro Paulo; PAULA, Fabiana Martins de
    Background: The potential that Strongyloides stercoralis infection has to cause major morbidity and high mortality when the disseminated form occurs in transplant patients is of particular concern.Methods: In this study, the objective was to observe S. stercoralis infection in patients who are candidates for transplantation by using parasitological, serological, and molecular techniques and to propose an algorithm for the detection of that infection in transplant candidates.Results: By parasitological techniques, 10% of fecal samples were positive. Anti-Strongyloides antibodies immunoglobulin G were detected in 19.3% and 20.7% of patients by immunofluorescence assay and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, respectively. S. stercoralis DNA was observed in 17.3% of samples by conventional polymerase chain reaction and 32.7% of samples by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR).Conclusion: The set of results allows us to reinforce that a positive result by parasitological techniques and/or qPCR indicates that the specific treatment should be applied. However, the improvement of diagnostic techniques may suggest changes in the screening for strongyloidiasis in these patients. image

    Efficacy of ceftazidime-avibactam in solid organ transplant recipients with bloodstream infections caused by carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae
    (2023) PEREZ-NADALES, Elena; FERNANDEZ-RUIZ, Mario; NATERA, Alejandra M.; GUTIERREZ-GUTIERREZ, Belen; MULARONI, Alessandra; RUSSELLI, Giovanna; PIERROTTI, Ligia Camera; FREIRE, Maristela Pinheiro; FALCONE, Marco; TISEO, Giusy; TUMBARELLO, Mario; RAFFAELLI, Francesca; ABDALA, Edson; BODRO, Marta; GERVASI, Elena; FARINAS, Maria Carmen; SEMINARI, Elena M.; CASTON, Juan Jose; MARIN-SANZ, Juan Antonio; GALVEZ-SOTO, Victor; RANA, Meenakshi M.; LOECHES, Belen; MARTIN-DAVILA, Pilar; PASCUAL, Alvaro; RODRIGUEZ-BANO, Jesus; AGUADO, Jose Maria; MARTINEZ-MARTINEZ, Luis; TORRE-CISNEROS, Julian; REIPI INCREMENT-SOT Study Grp
    We aimed to compare the efficacy of ceftazidime-avibactam (CAZ-AVI) versus the best available therapy (BAT) in solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients with bloodstream infection caused by carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae (CPKP-BSI). A retrospective (2016-2021) observational cohort study was performed in 14 INCREMENT-SOT centers (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02852902; Impact of Specific Antimicrobials and MIC Values on the Outcome of Bloodstream Infections Due to ESBL-or Carbapenemaseproducing Enterobacterales in Solid Organ Transplantation: an Observational Multinational Study). Outcomes were 14-day and 30-day clinical success (complete resolution of attributable manifestations, adequate source control, and negative follow-up blood cultures) and 30-day all-cause mortality. Multivariable logistic and Cox regression analyses adjusted for the propensity score to receive CAZ-AVI were constructed. Among 210 SOT recipients with CPKP-BSI, 149 received active primary therapy with CAZ-AVI (66/149) or BAT (83/ 149). Patients treated with CAZ-AVI had higher 14-day (80.7% vs 60.6%, P =.011) and 30 day (83.1% vs 60.6%, P = .004) clinical success and lower 30-day mortality (13.25% vs 27.3%, P =.053) than those receiving BAT. In the adjusted analysis, CAZ-AVI increased the probability of 14-day (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 2.65; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.036.84; P = .044) and 30-day clinical success (aOR, 3.14; 95% CI, 1.17-8.40; P = .023). In contrast, CAZ-AVI therapy was not independently associated with 30-day mortality. In the CAZ-AVI group, combination therapy was not associated with better outcomes. In conclusion, CAZ-AVI may be considered a first-line treatment in SOT recipients with CPKP-BSI.

    Biosurveillance and reporting of adverse events in organ donation and transplantation: a systematic review
    (2023) ROZA, Bartira de Aguiar; LAZARINI, Leticia de Fatima; TREVISO, Patricia; GARCIA, Valter Duro; PIERROTTI, Ligia Camera; SCHIRMER, Janine; AMORIM, Maria Helena Costa; CUNHA, Isabel Cristina Kowal Olm
    Objective: To synthesize and critically evaluate the scientific evidence from observational studies on biosurveillance systems and adverse event reporting in organ donation and transplantation.Methods: Systematic review of observational studies following the recommendations of the Methodological Guidelines (REBRATS) and Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA). Primary studies and case reports on biosurveillance and/or adverse events in organ donation and/or transplantation, without restriction of publication date or language were included. Six electronic databases were used in the scientific literature search: Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (MEDLINE) (via PubMed), Excerpta Medica Database (Embase), Web of Science, LILACS, Scopus and the electronic library Scielo. A data search was also performed in the following secondary databases: Notify -World Health Organization (WHO), Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) and Google Scholar. The MINORS tool was used to assess the quality of studies.Results: 551 studies were identified, and after the evaluation steps, eight of them were included in the systematic review. These were divided into results, processes and strategies for preventing adverse events. Regarding the classification of the quality of studies, two obtained a good classification.Conclusion: The results indicate the occurrence of adverse events at some stage of the organ and tissue donation and transplantation process, such as: adverse drug-related reactions; neurotoxicity; longer length of hospital stay; surgical reinterventions; falls; coma; death; graft failure or loss. The fact that adverse events are possibly still underreported is noteworthy.
