Diagnostic des pneumonies aiguës communautaires aux urgences et distinction entre étiologie virale ou bactérienne

La pandémie actuelle liée à l’émergence du SARSCoV-2 en 2019 a considérablement modifié la perception des médecins de l’impact des virus respiratoires et de leur rôle dans les pneumonies aiguës communautaires (PAC). Alors que plus de 25 % des tableaux de PAC chez l’adulte étaient d’origine virale, les virus respiratoires étaient souvent perçus comme des agents pathogènes peu graves. Devant le défi que représente encore à nos jours la documentation microbiologique d’une PAC, l’instauration d’un traitement empirique par antibiotiques est souvent réalisée aux urgences. La pandémie de COVID-19 a surtout mis en exergue le rôle déterminant de la biologie moléculaire et du scanner thoracique dans l’algorithme diagnostique de la PAC. En effet, un diagnostic rapide et fiable est la clé pour améliorer les mesures de précaution et réduire la prescription inutile d’antibiotiques. Du fait de prises en charges très différentes, il est nécessaire de distinguer l’étiologie virale de la bactérienne d’une PAC.

Concordance de la détection des virus respiratoires sur écouvillonnage nasopharyngé et lavage broncho-alvéolaire chez l'adulte admis pour une suspicion de pneumonie

Introduction

A ce jour, peu de données sont disponibles sur la concordance de la détection des virus respiratoires (en dehors du SARS-CoV2) entre le prélèvement nasopharyngé (NP) et le lavage broncho-alvéolaire (LBA) chez l'adulte. L'objectif de cette étude était de décrire la concordance de leurs résultats.

Matériels et méthodes

Une analyse rétrospective monocentrique a été réalisée à l'aide des données de 276 adultes suspects de pneumonie et testés par PCR multiplex dans le NP et le LBA à 24 heures d'intervalle.

Résultats

Les patients étaient majoritairement des hommes (65 %), avec un âge médian de 60 ans[IQR : 50,9-67,8]. 169 patients (61 %) ont été admis en réanimation Nous avons détecté au moins un virus respiratoire dans 95 NP (34 %) et dans 80 BAL (29 %). Comparé au LBA, le NP avait une sensibilité de 71,6 % et une spécificité de 93,4 % et un coefficient Kappa de 0,67. Le même agent pathogène ou combinaison d'agents pathogènes a été observé chez 84 % des patients positifs à la fois sur le NP et le LBA. La grippe B, le parainfluenza, les coronavirus HKU1, NL63, 229E présentaient la concordance la plus élevée (100 %) entre le NP et la LBA, tandis que le coronavirus OC43 et le rhinovirus présentaient la concordance la plus faible (33 % et 67 %, respectivement).Nous avons observé que les patients atteints d'une maladie respiratoire chronique ont une plus faible concordance entre le NP et LBA avec un OR ajusté à 0,5, IC 95 % (0,25-0,97), p = 0,043.

Conclusion

Dans ce travai, Il y a une bonne concordance entre le NP et le LBA dans la détection des virus respiratoires chez les patients consultant avec une suspicion de pneumonie.

Néanmoins, ces données encouragent toujours à réaliser un LBA lorsque cela est possible afin d'obtenir un diagnostic étiologique plus précis.

Predicting response to radiotherapy of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma using radiomics from cone-beam CT images

INTRODUCTION

Radiotherapy (RT) for head and neck cancer is now guided by cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). We aim to identify a CBCT radiomic signature predictive of progression to RT.

MATERIAL AND METHODS

A cohort of 93 patients was split into training (n = 60) and testing (n = 33) sets. A total of 88 features were extracted from the gross tumor volume (GTV) on each CBCT. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to determine the power of each feature at each week of treatment to predict progression to radio(chemo)therapy. Only features with AUC > 0.65 at each week were pre-selected. Absolute differences were calculated between features from each weekly CBCT and baseline CBCT1 images. The smallest detectable change (C = 1.96 × SD, SD being the standard deviation of differences between feature values calculated on CBCT1 and CBCTn) with its confidence interval (95% confidence interval [CI]) was determined for each feature. The features for which the change was larger than C for at least 5% of patients were then selected. A radiomics-based model was built at the time-point that showed the highest AUC and compared with models relying on clinical variables.

RESULTS

Seven features had an AUC > 0.65 at each week, and six exhibited a change larger than the predefined CI 95%. After exclusion of inter-correlated features, only one parameter remains, Coarseness. Among clinical variable, only hemoglobin value was significant. AUC for predicting the treatment response were 0.78 (p = .006), 0.85 (p < .001), and 0.99 (p < .001) for clinical, CBCT4-radiomics (Coarseness) and clinical + radiomics based models respectively. The mean AUC of this last model on a 5-fold cross-validation was 0.80 (±0.09). On the testing cohort, the best prediction was given by the combined model (balanced accuracy [BAcc] 0.67 , p < .001).

CONCLUSIONS

We described a feature selection methodology for delta-radiomics that is able to select reproducible features which are informative due to their change during treatment. A selected delta radiomics feature may improve clinical-based prediction models.

Rapid diagnostic tests for infectious diseases in the emergency department

Background

Rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) for infectious diseases, with a turnaround time of less than 2 hours, are promising tools that could improve patient care, antimicrobial stewardship and infection prevention in the emergency department (ED) setting. Numerous RDTs have been developed, although not necessarily for the ED environment. Their successful implementation in the ED relies on their performance and impact on patient management.

Objectives

The aim of this narrative review was to provide an overview of currently available RDTs for infectious diseases in the ED.

Sources

PubMed was searched through August 2019 for available studies on RDTs for infectious diseases. Inclusion criteria included: commercial tests approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or Conformité Européenne (CE) in vitro diagnostic devices with data on clinical samples, ability to run on fully automated systems and result delivery within 2 hours.

Content

A nonexhaustive list of representative commercially available FDA- or CE-approved assays was categorized by clinical syndrome: pharyngitis and upper respiratory tract infection, lower respiratory tract infection, gastrointestinal infection, meningitis and encephalitis, fever in returning travellers and sexually transmitted infection, including HIV. The performance of tests was described on the basis of clinical validation studies. Further, their impact on clinical outcomes and anti-infective use was discussed with a focus on ED-based studies.

Implications

Clinicians should be familiar with the distinctive features of each RDT and individual performance characteristics for each target. Their integration into ED work flow should be preplanned considering local constraints of given settings. Additional clinical studies are needed to further evaluate their clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness.

Genetic association and phenotypic correlation of TLR4 but not NOD2 variants with Tunisian inflammatory bowel disease

OBJECTIVE

The common association between NOD2/CARD15 and TLR4 gene variants with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has not been replicated in all studies. We studied the polymorphism of these two genes in Tunisian patients with IBD.

METHODS

Polymorphisms of NOD2 (R702W, G908R and L1007fs) and TLR4 (Asp299Gly and Thr399Ile) genes were analyzed in 106 patients with IBD (68 with ulcerative colitis [UC], 38 with Crohn's disease [CD]) and 160 healthy controls using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. Genotypes and phenotypes were correlated.

RESULTS

The mutated allele of TLR4-Thr399Ile was strongly associated with IBD (9.4% in IBD, 7.4% in UC and 13.2% in CD vs 2.5% in controls; P = 0.0004, 0.014 and 0.00006, respectively). Heterozygous genotypes were significantly more frequent in patients with IBD (17.0%), UC (14.7%) and CD (21.1%) than in controls (5.0%) (P = 0.0012, 0.012 and 0.001, respectively). Interestingly, the wild genotype was found to be protective (odds ratio 0.24). The mutated allele of TLR4-Asp299Gly was more frequent in controls (6.8%) than in patients with IBD (2.9%). A phenotypic correlation of Asp299Gly-AG genotype with arthritis in UC patients was detected (P = 0.003). Regarding the NOD2 gene, the common variations studied were not polymorphic and there was no genetic association with IBD.

CONCLUSION

The TLR4-Thr399Ile variant was strongly associated with susceptibility to IBD, whereas TLR4-Asp299Gly seems to play a role in the clinical expression of UC. The rarity and non-association of NOD2 mutations with IBD may reveal a genetic characteristic of the population in our region.

CREM variant rs17583959 conferred susceptibility to T1D risk in the Tunisian families

Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D) is a chronic autoimmune disease caused by the destruction of insulin-producing pancreatic β-cells by autoreactive T cells. Studies in animal models, such as the non-obese diabetic (NOD) mouse reveal that this disease is under the control of several genes that encode molecules implicated in regulation of transcription factors and in T cell activation. In order to underline the role of the genes involved in this regulation pathways, we investigated, using the Sequenom MassARRAY platform, 13 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) belonging to CREM, IRF5, STAT4, and STAT5a/b genes in 59 T1D Tunisian families. In the current study, we identified an association with rs17583959 (allele G; Z score=2.27; p=0.02; Genotype GG: score=1.96; p=0.04) of CREM gene. In LD analysis a strong LD between the 3 CREM variants (Block 1) was detected; rs2384352 was in complete LD with rs1148247. When haplotypes were constructed between CREM polymorphisms (rs1148247, rs17583959, rs2384352), AGA haplotype (H2) was significantly over-transmitted from parents to affected offspring (Z score=2.988; P=0.002) and may confer a risk for T1D disease. Whereas, AAG haplotype (H5) (Z score=-2.000; p=0.045) was less transmitted than expected to affected children suggesting its protective effect against T1D pathology. No significant association in IRF5, STAT4, and STAT5a/b genes were observed. In conclusion, this study shows an eventually involvement of CREM gene in the development of T1D pathology in Tunisian families. These facts are consistent with a major role for transcription factor genes involved in the immune pathways in the control of autoimmunity. Further researches of association and functional analysis across populations are needed to confirm these findings.

Association of TCR/CD3, PTPN22, CD28 and ZAP70 gene polymorphisms with type 1 diabetes risk in Tunisian population: family based association study

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is caused by an immune-mediated destruction of the insulin-producing β-cells. Several studies support the involvement of T cell activation molecules in the pathogenesis of T1D. In order to underline the role of the genes involved in this activation pathway, we investigated, using the Sequenom MassARRAY platform, 45 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) belonging to TCR/CD3, CD28, ZAP70, and PTPN22 genes in 59 T1D Tunisian families. In the current study, we identified an association with rs706 (Z score=2.782; p=0.005) of TCRβ gene. We also demonstrated that rs10918706 in the intron of the CD3z gene was associated with increased risk of T1D (Z score 2.137; p=0.032). In the same region, rs2949655 (Z score=2.101; p=0.035) and rs1214611 (Z score=4.036; p=0.00005) showed a genotype association with the risk of T1D. When haplotypes were constructed, GAA haplotype displayed significant association with T1D (Z score=2.135; p=0.032), while GGA haplotype (Z score=-1.988; p=0.046) was negatively associated with the disease. We also identified an association with rs3181096 (Z score=2.177; p=0.029), rs17695937 (Z score =2.111; p=0.034) and rs2488457 (Z score=2.219; p=0.026), respectively of CD28, ZAP70 and PTPN22 genes. In addition, our results suggest a significant effect on T1D susceptibility for AC (Z score=2.30; p=0.02) and CTGGC (Z score=2.309, p=0.02) haplotypes of ZAP70 and PTPN22 genes, respectively. While, the GTCT (Z score=-2.114, p=0.034) and CTAGG (Z score=-2.121, p=0.033) haplotypes of CD28 and PTPN22 genes, may confer protection against T1D. These findings confirm the role of PTPN22 and CD28 involved in the T cell activation pathway in the development of T1D in Tunisian families. Interestingly, ZAP70 and TCRβ/CD3z seem to contribute to the susceptibility to the disease in our population. However, this finding has to be confirmed in further studies.

Autoimmune diseases association study with the KIAA1109-IL2-IL21 region in a Tunisian population

Autoimmune diseases (ADs) share several genetic factors resulting in similarity of disease mechanisms. For instance polymorphisms from the KIAA1109-interleukin 2 (IL2)-IL21 block in the 4q27 chromosome, has been associated with a number of autoimmune phenotypes. Here we performed a haplotype-based analysis of this AD related region in Tunisian patients. Ten single nucleotide polymorphisms (rs6534347, rs11575812, rs2069778, rs2069763, rs2069762, rs6852535, rs12642902, rs6822844, rs2221903, rs17005931) of the block were investigated in a cohort of 93 systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), 68 ulcerative colitis (UC), 39 Crohn's disease (CD) patients and 162 healthy control subjects of Tunisian origin. In SLE population, haplotypes AGCAGGGTC, AGAAGAGTC, AGAAGGGTC and AGCCGAGTC provided significant evidence of association with SLE risk (p = 0.013, 0.028, 0.018 and 0.048, respectively). In the UC population, haplotype AGCCGGGTC provided a susceptibility effect for UC (p = 0.025). In the CD population, haplotype CAGGCC showed a protective effect against the development of CD (p = 0.038). Haplotype AAGGTT provided significant evidence to be associated with CD risk (p = 0.007). Our results support the existence of the associations found in the KIAA1109/IL2/IL21 gene region with ADs, thus confirms that the 4q27 locus may contribute to the genetic susceptibility of ADs in the Tunisian population.

Polymorphisms in the IL2RA and IL2RB genes in inflammatory bowel disease risk

Associations with different autoimmune diseases of polymorphisms in genes encoding the IL2RA and IL2RB subunits (located in 10p15 and 22q13, respectively), were identified through genome-wide studies. Polymorphisms in these two genes were studied in 107 inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients (39 Crohn's disease [CD] and 68 ulcerative colitis [UC]) and in 162 ethnically healthy controls from Tunisia (Sfax). Two of the 15 IL2RA single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) genotyped (rs4749924 and rs706778) were significantly associated with UC (pcorr=0.018 and 0.048, respectively), but no evidence of association with CD was observed. The IL2RA GTCT haplotype was also more frequent in UC patients compared to controls (2.6% vs. 0%; p=0.002). One of the 6 IL2RB SNPs genotyped (rs743776) was significantly associated with CD (pcorr= 0.039), but no evidence of association with UC was observed. No significant association between IL2RB haplotypes was observed among investigated groups. Our study identified markers in the IL2RA and IL2RB genes that are significantly associated with UC and CD, respectively. Our results supporting IL2RA and IL2RB as promising candidate genes for IBD and suggesting a potential role of IL2R in the pathogenesis of IBD, likely involves regulatory T cells.

Association study of MICA-TM polymorphism with inflammatory bowel disease in the South Tunisian population

BACKGROUND

Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) are chronic inflammatory disorders of the gastro-intestinal tract with unknown etiology. Both environmental and genetic factors are involved in the pathogenesis of these inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD).

AIM

The purpose of the present study was to determine the association between the polymorphism of the transmembrane region of MICA (MICA-TM), and the genetic susceptibility in Tunisian patients with IBD.

PATIENTS AND METHODS

A total of 102 Tunisian patients (66 with UC, 36 with CD) and 123 healthy controls were enrolled in our study. MICA-TM was genotyped by a semiautomatic fluorescent-labelled PCR method, amplicons were analysed on an ABI Prism 310 genotyper. Comparisons of allele frequencies between patients and controls, and between patients' subgroups were performed using SPSS 13.0.

RESULTS

No MICA allele was significantly increased in both groups of IBD compared to controls. The MICA-A5.1 allele was significantly decreased in CD patients (p=0.006, pc=0.03). In UC, MICA-A6 was associated with the presence of extraintestinal manifestations (p=0.04, pc=0.2), whereas MICA-A5 was associated with late age of onset (p=0.04). In CD, MICA-A6 was significantly increased in active disease patients when compared to moderately active or inactive disease (p=0.03, pc=0.15).

CONCLUSION

Some clinical features of CD and UC may be influenced by specific MICA-TM alleles. In our South Tunisian population, MICA plays a disease modifying role, rather than being an important gene in the susceptibility for developing IBD.

Association of ZAP70 and PTPN6, but Not BANK1 or CLEC2D, with inflammatory bowel disease in the Tunisian population

Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), consisting of ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), are complex disorders with multiple genes contributing to disease pathogenesis. We aimed to identify the associations of genetic variations in the ZAP70, PTPN6, BANK1, and CLEC2D genes encoding for intracellular signaling molecules with IBDs. One hundred seven patients (39 CD and 68 UC) with IBD and 162 healthy control subjects from the Southern Tunisia were recruited. We genotyped 4 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in ZAP70 (rs1020396, rs11686881, rs13420683, and rs17695937), 2 SNPs in PTPN6 (rs7310161 and rs759052), 3 SNPs in BANK1 (rs10516487, rs17266594, and rs3733197), and 1 SNP in CLEC2D (rs3764021). ZAP70 displayed a strong genetic association with CD for rs13420683 [allele C, p=0.003, P(corr)=0.006, odds ratio (OR)=2.25 (1.32; 3.85); genotype CC, p=0.016, P(corr)=0.048, OR=2.57 (1.22; 5.41)]. However, in UC, a weak association with PTPN6 was observed [TT (p=0.01; P(corr)=0.03; OR=2.11 (1.18; 3.76)]. No significant association in the BANK1 and CLEC2D genes was observed. These results suggest the involvement of the ZAP70 and PTPN6 genes in the genetic component conferring a general susceptibility to CD and UC, respectively. This work provides motivation for studies aiming to replicate these findings in larger populations.

Oxidative stress markers in intestinal mucosa of Tunisian inflammatory bowel disease patients

BACKGROUND / AIMS: Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), Crohn's disease (CrD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), are chronic gastrointestinal inflammatory disorders. The precise etiology of IBD remains unclear, and it is thought that interactions among various factors, including, genetic factors, the host immune system and environmental factors, cause disruption of intestinal homeostasis, leading to dysregulated inflammatory responses of the gut. As inflammation is intimately related to formation of reactive intermediates, including, reactive oxygen species, oxidative stress has been proposed as a mechanism underlying the pathophysiology of IBD. The purpose of this study is to examine the lipid peroxidation, protein oxidation and anti-oxidative profile in Tunisian IBD.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

Malondialdehyde (MDA), conjugated dienes (CD), protein thiol levels, as well as the catalase (CAT) activity were evaluated in intestinal biopsies of 17 patients affected by IBD (12 CrD and 5 UC) and 12 healthy control individuals.

RESULTS

Oxidative stress was confirmed in these two types of disease biopsies as compared to controls. MDA and CD levels were significantly increased in both UC and CrD patients' biopsies as compared to controls' biopsies ( P < 0.001). CAT activity was similar in UC and CrD biopsies' and was not significantly increased in IBD patients' biopsies compared with controls' biopsies ( P > 0.05). Anon-significant decrease in thiol (SH) level was observed in both UC and CrD patients' biopsies compared with controls' biopsies ( P > 0.05).

CONCLUSION

Increased levels of MDA and CD in IBD patients' biopsies underline the implication of oxidative stress in the physiopathology of IBD.

[Dosimetric comparison between the intensity modulated radiotherapy with fixed field and Rapid Arc of cervix cancer]

PURPOSE

Concurrent radiochemotherapy is the standard treatment for locally advanced cervical cancer. This treatment is responsible for bowel and hematologic toxicities. The use of intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), in static beams, allows a decrease of this toxicity. The technique of RapidArc(®) IMRT could lower the dose delivered to the organs at risk and improve the homogeneity of the planning target volume coverage, while decreasing the processing time.

PATIENTS AND MATERIALS

For 20 patients, treatment plans performed with IMRT and RapidArc(®) were compared. The target volumes were: the clinical target volume (gross tumour volume, uterus, upper third of the vagina, the hypogastric, iliac and presacral nodal regions), and the planning target volume (clinical target volume+1cm). The delineated organs at risk were: rectum, bladder, bowel and bone marrow. The dose was 45 Gy in 25 fractions. IMRT were delivered with five beams and RapidArc(®) with two arcs. The comparisons were made by the non-parametric test of Wilcoxon.

RESULTS

Medium coverage of the planning target volume was better with RapidArc(®) (P=0.01). It was also better regarding the sparing of bowel (P=0.01) and IMRT was better regarding the sparing of bladder (P=0.01) and rectum (P=0.05). The total volume receiving 20 Gy was less important with RapidArc(®) (P<0.001). RapidArc(®) allowed to decrease the treatment time (3 versus 12 minutes with IMRT) and the number of monitor units (MU) (376.5 versus 962.2, on average, P=0.0001).

CONCLUSION

The technique of RapidArc(®) seems to obtain better dosimetric results compared to RCMI, with fewer MU, and a significant decrease in treatment time.

Inflammatory bowel disease: susceptibility and disease heterogeneity revealed by human leukocyte antigen genotyping

This study aimed to investigate the association between HLA DR/DQ and inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) in Tunisian patients and to determine the relationship between HLA DR/DQ alleles with the clinical disease patterns. DNA typing of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genes was performed in 70 ulcerative colitis (UC) patients, 40 Crohn's disease (CD) patients, and 123 healthy controls (HC) using a polymerase chain reaction sequence specific primer technique. Data were analyzed using Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel test and binary logistic regression. Compared with HC, IBD patients showed an increased frequency of the homozygous DRB1*07 genotype. This positive association was maintained when UC and CD were separately compared to HC. In UC patients, DQB1*03:02 was predictive of colonic extension whereas DRB1*13 and DQB1*03:01 were associated limited disease localization (left-sided colitis and proctitis). The DRB1*15 allele increased in patients with extraintestinal manifestations. In CD, female patients showed an increased frequency of DRB1*13, DRB1*15, and DQB1*06 alleles and DRB1*13-DQB1*06 haplotype, whereas a significant increase of DRB1*07, DQB1*02 alleles, and DRB1*07-DQB1*02 haplotype was noted in male patients. These results show a significant association of the homozygous HLA-DRB1*07 genotype with UC and CD and of several HLA DR/DQ alleles and haplotypes with the clinical phenotypes of these diseases in Tunisian patients. Because of limited statistical power, our study findings are subject to further investigation.

Contribution of immunofluorescence to identification and characterization of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies in inflammatory bowel disease

We evaluated the combined use of different fixatives for the identification of atypical perinuclear anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (p-ANCA) in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) by indirect immunofluorescence (IIF). Sera from 59 ulcerative colitis (UC) and 37 Crohn's disease (CD) patients, and from 64 healthy controls were studied. The IIF on ethanol-, formalin-, and methanol-fixed neutrophils was used for the detection of ANCA. Enzyme linked immunosorbant assay (ELISA) was performed to identify the antigens recognized by ANCA. ANCAs were present in 35 of 59 (59.3%) UC patients and in 10 of 37 (27.02%) CD patients. Atypical p-ANCA positivity was strongly associated with UC disease (44.1% in UC vs. 8.1% in CD; p = 0.0002). The combined application of different fixatives contributed to make easy the differentiation between typical p-ANCA and atypical p-ANCA. Atypical p-ANCA determination appears to be a useful parameter for the distinction between UC and CD.

Dietary magnesium intake in a French adult population

Magnesium intake was assessed using six 24-h dietary records during a 1-year period in 5,448 subjects (3,111 women 35-60 yrs old and 2,337 men 45-60 yrs old) in the SU.VI.MAX cohort, selected at a national level in France. The overall mean dietary intake was estimated at 369 +/- 106 mg/day in men and 280 +/- 84 mg/day in women. 77 per cent of women and 72 per cent of men had dietary magnesium intakes lower than recommended dietary allowances; 23 per cent of women and 18 per cent of men consumed less than 2/3 of these RDA. A strong positive correlation existed between energy and magnesium intake (r = 0.79; p < 10(-4)). Slight variations were observed according to socio-professional and educational levels and place of residence. Cereal products represented the main contribution in both men (21 per cent) and women (19.8 per cent). In men, the second source was represented by alcoholic beverages (11.7 per cent), which were a lower source of magnesium in women (5.5 per cent). Dairy products, vegetables, meat and poultry were the other main sources of dietary magnesium intake.
