OBJECTIVE:
To describe negative conversion and rebound of patients with severe and critical acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection after treatment with Nirmatrelvir/Ritonavir, and to analyze related factors associating with failure of SARS-CoV-2 negative conversion and relapse and prognosis.
METHODS:
A single center retrospective cohort study was conducted. Patients aged ≥ 16 years old who were diagnosed with severe or critical SARS-CoV-2 infection and took Nirmatrelvir/Ritonavir for 5 days in Peking University First Hospital from December 7, 2022 to January 27, 2023, were included. General characteristics and clinical data were collected from electronic medical record system. The Kaplan-Meier curve of SARS-CoV-2 negative conversion was drawn. Factors with P < 0.10 were incorporated into multivariate Logistic regression model to analyze the relationship between the factors and persistent nucleic acid positive and rebound.
RESULTS:
A total of 31 severe and 37 critical SARS-CoV-2 infection patients were included. The median duration from initiation of Nirmatrelvir/Ritonavir to negative conversion of SARS-CoV-2 for both was 6.0 days, and the negative conversion rate on day 15 was 93.5% and 86.5%, respectively. SARS-CoV-2 rebound was observed in 7 patients (11.3%), among whom were 1 severe patient and 6 critical patients. The above 7 patients with SARS-CoV-2 rebound and 6 patients with failure of SARS-CoV-2 negative conversion were compared with 55 patients with persistent negative conversion. Factors with P < 0.10, including the lowest lymphocyte count (LYM), the highest D-dimer, the highest procalcitonin (PCT), the lowest Ct value, cardiovascular diseases other than hypertension and coronary heart disease, were incorporated into multivariate Logistic regression analysis. The decreased LYM [odds ratio (OR) = 0.146, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) was 0.031-0.689, P = 0.015] and the increased PCT (OR = 2.008, 95%CI was 1.042-3.868, P = 0.037) were revealed to be independent risk factors of the failure of SARS-CoV-2 negative conversion or rebound. The proportion of mechanical ventilation and invasive ventilation were significantly higher in patients with persistent SARS-CoV-2 infection or rebound than those in patients with SARS-CoV-2 negative conversion (84.6% vs. 38.2%, 69.2% vs. 25.5%, both P < 0.01), but no significant difference in mechanical ventilation and invasive ventilation duration was observed. Compared with the patients with SARS-CoV-2 negative conversion, more patients with persistent SARS-CoV-2 infection or rebound were admitted to intensive care unit (ICU, 76.9% vs. 50.9%), and length of ICU stay in patients with persistent SARS-CoV-2 infection or rebound tended to be longer [days: 13.0 (10.3, 24.3) vs. 11.0 (5.3, 23.0), P > 0.05].
CONCLUSIONS
The decreased LYM and increased PCT are independent risk factors for the failure of SARS-CoV-2 negative conversion or rebound in patients with severe and critical SARS-CoV-2 infection. Attention should be paid to these patients for their poor prognosis.

Objective:
To investigate the incidence of post-bronchiolitis recurrent wheezing and its risk factors in children.
Methods:
This study was conducted on patients with bronchiolitis admitted to the Department of Respiratory Disease, Children′s Hospital of Soochow University between November 2016 and March 2017.Nasopharyngeal secretions were taken from all patients and assessed for respiratory pathogens.After discharge, the patients were followed up every 3 months by outpatient visit or telephone call for 1 year.
Results:
Eighty-nine patients with bronchiolitis were enrolled in this study.Among those 89 patients, respiratory syncytial virus(RSV) infection accounted for 46.1%(41/89 cases), Mycoplasma pneumonia(MP) for 5.6%(5/89 cases), rhinovirus(RV) for 4.5%(4/89 cases), and human bocavirus(hBoV) for 2.2%(2/89 cases). Eighty-three patients were successfully followed up.At the 3, 6, 9, and 12 months of follow-up, the occurrence of wheezing episodes for only once happened in 20 cases(24.1%), 27 cases(32.5%), 35 cases (42.2%), and 38 cases(45.8%), respectively.At 12 months after initial bronchiolitis, the occurrence of wheezing episodes for only once happened in 21 cases(25.3%), 2 episodes of wheezing in 10 cases(12.0%), and 7 cases (8.4%) had more than 3 episodes of wheezing, and 6 cases lost follow-up.The proportion of eczema and milk-protein allergy in post-bronchiolitis recurrent wheezing group was significantly higher than that of the group with not post-bronchiolitis recurrent wheezing patients (
