<title>Background</title>
Good’s syndrome (GS) is characterized by immunodeficiency, and can lead to severe infection, which is the most significant complication. Although <italic>Mycobacterium</italic> rarely causes infection in patients with GS, disseminated nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infection frequently occurs in GS patients that are also positive for the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or anti-interferon (IFN)-γ autoantibodies. Here, we report a rare case of GS with NTM without HIV or IFN-γ autoantibodies.

<title>Case presentation</title>
A 57-year-old Japanese male with GS and myasthenia gravis (treated with prednisolone and tacrolimus) was diagnosed with disseminated NTM infection caused by <italic>Mycobacterium abscessus</italic> subsp. <italic>massiliense</italic>. He presented with fever and back pain. Blood, lumbar tissue, urine, stool, and sputum cultures tested positive for <italic>M. abscessus</italic>. Bacteremia, spondylitis, intestinal lumber abscess, and lung infection were confirmed by bacteriological examination and diagnostic imaging; urinary and intestinal tract infections were suspected by bacteriological examination but not confirmed by imaging. Despite multidrug combination therapy, including azithromycin, imipenem/cilastatin, levofloxacin, minocycline, linezolid, and sitafloxacin, the patient ultimately died of the infection. The patient tested negative for HIV and anti-IFN-γ autoantibodies.


</sec><sec>
<title>Conclusions</title>
Since myasthenia gravis symptoms interfere with therapy, patients with GS and their physicians should carefully consider the antibacterial treatment options against disseminated NTM.

BACKGROUND: Mycobacterium avium complex lung disease (MAC-LD) can deteriorate rapidly to become fatal. Reported poor prognostic factors include radiographic findings, undernutrition, anemia and high inflammation test values. However, the association of these prognostic factors with the pathophysiology of the disease remains unknown. We aimed to clarify the pathophysiology of MAC-LD and develop a new biomarker that reflects the immune response to the disease. METHODS: We performed the cytokine panel analyses of serum from patients with MAC-LD and compared each cytokine level with clinically negative prognostic factors (radiographic disease type, body mass index, albumin, C-reactive protein and hemoglobin) and high-resolution CT scores. RESULTS: We analyzed 27 patients with MAC-LD, 6 with the fibrocavitary form and 21 with the nodular bronchiectatic form on high-resolution CT. Serum CXC motif ligand 10 (CXCL10) concentration was significantly elevated in patients with the fibrocavitary form (p = 0.008). CXCL10 levels correlated with body mass index (r = - 0.60, p = 0.0008), serum albumin concentration (r = - 0.45, p = 0.016) and high-resolution CT scores (r = 0.61, p = 0.0006). Among 14 patients initially untreated, antibiotic therapy was initiated for five during the study period. CXCL10 concentration was significantly higher in these patients (p = 0.046), and receiver operating characteristic analysis for CXCL10 concentration on treatment initiation produced an area under the curve of 0.844, with a sensitivity of 100%, specificity of 66.7%, and cut-off value of 366.5 pg/mL. CONCLUSION: We revealed cytokine profiles in patients with MAC-LD. Serum CXCL10 levels probably reflect the severity of MAC-LD. Our findings suggest that CXCL10 concentration may be a promising biomarker for managing treatment for patients with MAC disease of the lung.

BACKGROUND: Presepsin is a widely recognized biomarker for sepsis. However, little is known about the usefulness of presepsin in invasive fungal infection. The aim of this study was to determine the plasma levels of presepsin in fungal bloodstream infections and to investigate whether it reflects the disease severity, similar to its utility in bacterial infections. METHODS: We prospectively measured presepsin in plasma samples from participants with fungemia from April 2016 to December 2017. The associations of C-reactive protein, procalcitonin, and presepsin concentrations with the severity of fungemia were statistically analyzed. In vitro assay was performed by incubating Escherichia coli, Candida albicans, and lipopolysaccharide to whole blood cells collected from healthy subjects; after 3 h, the presepsin concentration was measured in the supernatant and was compared among the bacteria, fungi, and LPS groups. RESULTS: Presepsin was increased in 11 patients with fungal bloodstream infections. Serial measurement of presepsin levels demonstrated a prompt decrease in 7 patients in whom treatment was effective, but no decrease or further increase in the patients with poor improvement. Additionally, presepsin concentrations were significantly correlated with the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score (r = 0.89, p < 0.001). In vitro assay with co-incubation of C. albicans and human whole blood cells indicated that the viable cells of C. albicans caused an increase in presepsin, as seen with E. coli. CONCLUSIONS: Plasma presepsin levels increased in patients with fungal bloodstream infection, with positive association with the disease severity. Presepsin could be a useful biomarker of sepsis secondary to fungal infections.

Nursing and healthcare-associated pneumonia (NHCAP) is a category of healthcare-associated pneumonia that was modified for the healthcare system of Japan. The NHCAP guidelines stated the difficulty in assessing the severity classifications, for instance, A-DROP. We compared the usefulness of different severity classifications (A-DROP, CURB-65, PSI, and I-ROAD) in predicting the prognosis of nursing and healthcare-associated pneumonia. We conducted a retrospective analysis on 303 adult patients hospitalized for nursing healthcare-associated pneumonia and community-acquired pneumonia, which were diagnosed at the Department of Respiratory Medicine of Niigata General City Hospital between January 2012 and December 2014. We evaluated 159 patients with community-acquired pneumonia and 144 with nursing and healthcare-associated pneumonia. In the nursing and healthcare-associated pneumonia group, 30-days mortality and in-hospital mortality rates were 6.5% and 8.7%, respectively, in severe cases and 16.1% and 25.0%, respectively, in the most severe cases, based on A-DROP. With I-ROAD, these rates were 11.1% and 11.1%, respectively, in group B and 14.9% and 20.7%, respectively, in group C. With PSI, the rates were 2.3% and 6.8%, respectively, in class IV and 14.3% and 19.8%, respectively, in class V. Despite some variability due to the small sample size, both the 30-days and in-hospital mortality rates increased as the severity increased. In this study, both the 30-days mortality and in-hospital mortality rates in the nursing and healthcare-associated pneumonia group tended to increase in severity with the A-DROP. We found that A-DROP was useful in predicting the prognosis of nursing and healthcare-associated pneumonia.

Multicentric Castleman disease (MCD) is a heterogeneous lymphoproliferative disorder. It is characterized by inflammatory symptoms, and interleukin (IL)-6 contributes to the disease pathogenesis. Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) often drives hypercytokinemia in MCD, although the etiology of HHV-8-negative MCD is idiopathic (iMCD). A distinct subtype of iMCD that shares a constellation of clinical features including thrombocytopenia (T), anasarca (A), fever (F), reticulin fibrosis (R), and organomegaly (O) has been reported as TAFRO-iMCD, however the differences in cytokine profiles between TAFRO-iMCD and iMCD have not been established. We retrospectively compared levels of serum interferon Î 3-induced protein 10 kDa (IP-10), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-AA, interleukin (IL)-10, and other cytokines between 11 cases of TAFRO-iMCD, 6 cases of plasma cell type iMCD, and 21 healthy controls. During flare-ups, patients with TAFRO-iMCD had significantly higher serum IP-10 and tended to have lower PDGF-AA levels than the other 2 groups. In addition, serum IL-10, IL-23, and vascular endothelial growth factor-A were elevated in both TAFRO-iMCD and iMCD. Elevated serum IP-10 is associated with inflammatory diseases including infectious diseases. There was a strong correlation between high serum IP-10 and the presence of TAFRO-iMCD, suggesting that IP-10 might be involved in the pathogenesis of TAFRO-iMCD.

Aspiration pneumonia is thought to be associated with a poor outcome in patients with community acquired pneumonia (CAP). However, there has been no systematic review regarding the impact of aspiration pneumonia on the outcomes in patients with CAP. This review was conducted using the MOOSE guidelines: Patients: patients defined CAP. EXPOSURE: aspiration pneumonia defined as pneumonia in patients who have aspiration risk. Comparison: confirmed pneumonia in patients who were not considered to be at high risk for oral aspiration. OUTCOMES: mortality, hospital readmission or recurrent pneumonia. Three investigators independently identified published cohort studies from PubMed, CENTRAL database, and EMBASE. Nineteen studies were included for this systematic review. Aspiration pneumonia increased in-hospital mortality (relative risk, 3.62; 95% CI, 2.65-4.96; P < 0.001, seven studies) and 30-day mortality (3.57; 2.18-5.86; P < 0.001, five studies). In contrast, aspiration pneumonia was associated with decreased ICU mortality (relative risk, 0.40; 95% CI, 0.26-0.60; P < 0.00001, four studies). Although there are insufficient data to perform a meta-analysis on long-term mortality, recurrent pneumonia, and hospital readmission, the few reported studies suggest that aspiration pneumonia is also associated with these poor outcomes. In conclusion, aspiration pneumonia was associated with both higher in-hospital and 30-day mortality in patients with CAP outside ICU settings.

Multicentric Castleman disease (MCD) describes a heterogeneous group of disorders involving systemic inflammation, characteristic lymph node histopathology, and multi-organ dysfunction because of pathologic hypercytokinemia. Whereas Human Herpes Virus-8 (HHV-8) drives the hypercytokinemia in a cohort of immunocompromised patients, the etiology of HHV-8-negative MCD is idiopathic (iMCD). Recently, a limited series of iMCD cases in Japan sharing a constellation of clinical features, including thrombocytopenia (T), anasarca (A), fever (F), reticulin fibrosis (R), and organomegaly (O) has been described as TAFRO syndrome. Herein, we report clinicopathological findings on 25 patients (14 males and 11 females
23 Japanese-born and two US-born), the largest TAFRO syndrome case series, including the first report of cases from the USA. The median age of onset was 50 years old (range: 23-72). The frequency of each feature was as follows: thrombocytopenia (21/25), anasarca (24/25), fever (21/25), organomegaly (25/25), and reticulin fibrosis (13/16). These patients frequently demonstrated abdominal pain, elevated serum alkaline phosphatase levels, and acute kidney failure. Surprisingly, none of the cases demonstrated marked hypergammoglobulinemia, which is frequently reported in iMCD. Lymph node biopsies revealed atrophic germinal centers with enlarged nuclei of endothelial cells and proliferation of endothelial venules in interfollicular zone. 23 of 25 cases were treated initially with corticosteroids
12 patients responded poorly and required further therapy. Three patients died during the observation period (median: 9 months) because of disease progression or infections. TAFRO syndrome is a unique subtype of iMCD that demonstrates characteristic clinicopathological findings. Further study to clarify prognosis, pathophysiology, and appropriate treatment is needed.

A 23-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with severe thrombocytopaenia. He had unprotected sexual contact 6 weeks earlier. He was diagnosed with acute HIV infection by means of HIV RNA viral load testing and HIV-associated thrombocytopaenia. Although his thrombocytopaenia improved immediately with short-term dexamethasone therapy, this effect was not sustained after cessation of therapy. Antiretroviral therapy including raltegravir was initiated, and the patient recovered from severe thrombocytopaenia within several days. The findings from this case suggest that acute HIV infection should be suspected with unexplained thrombocytopaenia, and that antiretroviral therapy is the treatment of choice for severe HIV-associated thrombocytopaenia, even when in the early period following acquisition of the virus.

STAT1 is an essential part of interferon signaling, and STAT1-deficiency results in heightened susceptibility to infections or autoimmunity in both mice and humans. Here we report that mice lacking the IFN alpha/beta-receptor (IFNAR1) or STAT1 display impaired deletion of autoreactive CD4(+)CD8(+)-T-cells. Strikingly, co-existence of WT T cells restored thymic elimination of self-reactive STAT1-deficient CD4(+)CD8(+)-T cells. Analysis of STAT1-deficient thymocytes further revealed reduced Bim expression, which was restored in the presence of WT T cells. These results indicate that type I interferons and STAT1 play an important role in the survival of MHC class I-restricted T cells in a T cell intrinsic and non-cell intrinsic manner that involves regulation of Bim expression through feedback provided by mature STAT1-competent T cells.

INTRODUCTION: This study aimed to examine the factors associated with cytomegalovirus (CMV) antigenemia and the time of onset of CMV antigenemia among patients with rheumatic diseases. METHODS: A single-center, retrospective, observational study was conducted in our institution from January 2009 to December 2017. This study included patients with rheumatic diseases who had at least one CMV antigen measurement. Multivariate analysis and receiver operating characteristic analysis was performed. RESULTS: A total of 249 patients underwent CMV antigenemia assay, and 84 (33.7%) patients tested positive. When the association between CMV antigenemia and possible associated factors was investigated, multivariate analysis showed that daily steroid dose increased the odds of having CMV [odds ratio 16.25, 95% confidence interval (CI), 5.360-49.253]. In this study, the cutoff value of daily steroid dose found in this study (0.45 mg/kg/day) was reasonable in clinical practice, and the area under the curve of the steroid dose was 0.838 [95% CI 0.781-0.882], which was the largest of the known indicators. Moreover, the median time from the start of immunosuppressive therapy to the onset of CMV antigenemia was 30 (interquartile range, 21-44) days, and most of the daily steroid users (85.7%) developed CMV antigenemia within 60 days. CONCLUSIONS: The daily steroid dose is the most important factor associated with CMV antigenemia. Therefore, monitoring and treatment strategies based on the steroid dose, especially in the initial 2 months, are important.

継続的に受診していたHIV感染症患者(2009年29人、2011年31人、2013年41人、2014年38人)を臨床群、HIVおよび慢性疾患に罹患していない92人を対照群とした。[情緒的ソーシャルサポート]、[現実的ソーシャルサポート]、[対他的孤独感]、[実存的孤独感]、[孤独不安耐性]の信頼性係数は十分な値であった。ウェルチの検定で、[希死念慮うつ傾向]と[情緒的ソーシャルサポート]、[対他的孤独感]において有意差を認めた。ウェルチの検定の結果も踏まえれば、臨床群は対照群との平均値の比較において、[希死念慮うつ傾向]は高く、[情緒的ソーシャルサポート]は低く、[他的孤独感]は高いことが有意にいえるがその差はわずかであった。GHQ30の陽性判定の繰り返しに注目し、その説明因子やリスクについて検討し、希死念慮や抑うつ気分を持つかどうかが、メンタルヘルス不調の反復性を説明する上で重要であることが示された。メンタルヘルスのリスク因子と考えられる[希死念慮うつ傾向]に対しては、[対他的孤独感]が促進的影響、[孤独不安耐性]が抑制的影響を与えることが示された。

A 53-year-old man with an asymptomatic anterior mediastinal tumor undergoing hemodialysis was referred to our institution. He was diagnosed with thymic basaloid carcinoma based on the findings of a chest tomography-guided biopsy and successfully treated with carboplatin (300 mg/m(2)/day) and paclitaxel (200 mg/ m2/day) on day 1 for six three-week cycles. To our knowledge, this is the first report regarding the efficiency of a carboplatin dose-definition method based on the body surface area with paclitaxel in a hemodialysis patient. This report may therefore be useful for treating hemodialysis patients who are candidates for carboplatin and paclitaxel therapy.

We encountered a 49-year-old HIV-infected man with chronic renal insufficiency who developed rhabdomyolysis after treatment with simvastatin. He recovered after initiating hemodialysis and discontinuing oral medications. Rhabdomyolysis most likely resulted from an excessive blood concentration of simvastatin caused by concomitant use of fluconazole in the presence of renal insufficiency.

目的. サルコイドーシスやサルコイド反応は肺門・縦隔リンパ節腫大を呈し、これらを合併した肺癌症例には、リンパ節病変の評価が治療方針決定上で問題となる。本研究では、これらサルコイド反応合併肺癌症例の病期診断におけるEBUS-TBNAの有用性を検討した。対象と方法. 2009年1月から2016年12月に気管支鏡検査を実施され、サルコイドーシス/サルコイド反応と肺癌の合併と診断された症例におけるEBUS-TBNAの有効性について検討した。結果. EBUS-TBNAにより、サルコイドーシス/サルコイド反応と肺癌との合併と診断された症例は4例であった。造影CT、FDG-PET/CTでは癌のリンパ節転移とサルコイドーシス/サルコイド反応の鑑別は困難であった。4例中3例はI期の非小細胞肺癌と診断され、2例は手術が施行された。術後検体でも転移はなく、granulomaが認められたことから、サルコイド反応と診断された。4例中1例は全身性サルコイドーシスに合併したIII期の肺癌症例であった。結論. サルコイドーシス/サルコイド反応合併肺癌症例におけるN因子の評価に、EBUS-TBNAは有用であると考えられる。(著者抄録)
