在人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)感染的患者中,传播的马尔尼菲青霉菌感染的患病率尚不清楚。这项回顾性研究旨在评估2004-11年广州市HIV感染患者中播散性马尼菲菌感染的患病率和危险因素。中国。我们使用我们先前建立的高度敏感和特异性ELISA测试了8131个存档的HIV感染患者血清样品中的马尼菲特异性甘露糖蛋白(Mp1p)抗原。采用流式细胞术检测2686例患者的CD4计数。Logistic回归用于评估Mp1p抗原血症的预测因子。血清Mp1p抗原阳性检测的播散性青霉病总患病率为9.36%(761/8131),与Platelia™曲霉免疫测定法非常一致。在2004-11年期间,患病率在2010年上升到12.58%(158/1256)的峰值,在2011年下降。青霉病与从HIV到AIDS的进展密切相关(OR4.66,95%CI3.94-5.51,p<0.001)和湿度(OR1.02,95%CI1.01-1.03,p0.002)。播散性青霉病主要发生在雨季(p<0.001)。对于2686例已知的CD4计数,logistic回归分析显示CD4计数<200细胞/μL是青霉病的危险因素(OR2.90,95%CI1.10-7.66,p0.032),尤其是当<50个细胞/μL时(OR24.26,95%CI10.63-55.36,p<0.001),在此期间28.06%的患者发生播散性青霉病。总之,在我们的研究中,约9.36%的HIV感染患者发生播散性青霉病.快速诊断可以通过对Mp1p抗原血症进行血清学监测作为所有CD4计数<50细胞/μL的HIV感染患者的常规程序来实现。
Prevalence of disseminated Penicillium marneffei infection is not known in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients. This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of and risk factors for disseminated P. marneffei infection in HIV-infected patients during 2004-11 in Guangzhou,
China. We tested 8131 archived HIV-infected patient serum samples for P. marneffei-specific mannoprotein (Mp1p) antigen using a highly sensitive and specific ELISA that we previously established. The CD4 count of 2686 cases was determined by flow cytometry. Logistic regression was used to assess predictors of Mp1p antigenaemia. The overall prevalence of disseminated
penicilliosis as detected by positive serum Mp1p antigen was 9.36% (761/8131), in good concordance with Platelia™ Aspergillus immunoassay. During 2004-11, the prevalence increased to a peak of 12.58% (158/1256) in 2010 and decreased in 2011.
Penicilliosis was strongly associated with progression from HIV to AIDS (OR 4.66, 95% CI 3.94-5.51, p <0.001) and humidity (OR 1.02, 95% CI 1.01-1.03, p 0.002). Disseminated
penicilliosis occurred mainly during the rainy seasons (p <0.001). For 2686 cases with known CD4 count, logistic regression showed that CD4 count of <200 cells/μL was a risk factor for penicilliosis (OR 2.90, 95% CI 1.10-7.66, p 0.032), especially when it was <50 cells/μL (OR 24.26, 95% CI 10.63-55.36, p <0.001) during which 28.06% of patients developed disseminated
penicilliosis. In conclusion, approximately 9.36% of the HIV-infected patients in our study developed disseminated penicilliosis. Rapid diagnosis may be achieved by performing serological surveillance for Mp1p antigenaemia as a routine procedure for all HIV-infected patients with CD4 count of <50 cells/μL.
