Objective:To investigate the diagnostic value of serum Aspergillus fumigatus immunoglobulin G (IgG), bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) galactomannan antigen test (GM test) and combined detection of the two methods in chronic pulmonary aspergillosis (CPA). Methods:A total of 310 patients with suspected CPA who were hospitalized in Wuhan Pulmonary Hospital from January 2020 to December 2022 were screened. BALF-GM test and serum Aspergillus fumigatus IgG were detected. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 151 confirmed or clinically diagnosed CPA patients were enrolled and 60 non-CPA cases were included as controls. The underlying diseases, clinical symptoms and imaging findings of the two groups were analyzed using case-control study. Statistical comparison was performed by chi-square test. The efficacies of BALF-GM test, serum Aspergillus fumigatus IgG test, and their combined detection for CPA were analyzed by receiver operating characteristic curve. Results:There were 130 confirmed cases and 21 clinically diagnosed cases among 151 patients with CPA, including 106 males (70.2%) with age of (54.6±15.5) years. The age of 60 non-CPA patients was (53.6±17.8) years, including 42 males (70.0%). The proportions of pulmonary tuberculosis, bronchiectasis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and the incidence of hemoptysis in CPA group were 79.47%(120/151), 86.09%(130/151), 26.49%(40/151) and 43.71%(66/151), respectively, which were all higher than those in non-CPA group (10.00%(6/60), 25.00%(15/60), 8.33%(5/60) and 11.67%(7/60), respectively), and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=86.14, 74.56, 8.44 and 19.48, respectively, all P<0.05). The proportion of interstitial lung disease in non-CPA group was 28.33%(17/60), which was higher than that in CPA group (2.65%, 4/151), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=31.61, P<0.001). The common imaging findings of CPA patients were pulmonary cavity (70.86%, 107/151), cavity inclusions (41.72%, 63/151) and lung damage (33.77%, 51/151). The specificity and sensitivity of serum Aspergillus fumigatus IgG for CPA diagnosis were 81.7% and 68.9%, respectively, and the area under the curve (AUC) was 0.753 (95% confidence interval (95% CI) 0.681 to 0.825, P< 0.001). The specificity and sensitivity of BALF-GM test were 76.7% and 67.5%, respectively, and the AUC was 0.724 (95% CI 0.649 to 0.800, P<0.001). The specificity and sensitivity of the two methods in series combined detection were 95.0% and 44.4%, respectively, and those of the two methods in parallel detection were 60.3% and 94.5%, respectively. The AUC of the combined diagnosis of CPA by the two methods was 0.843 (95% CI 0.783 to 0.903, P<0.001). Conclusions:Serum Aspergillus fumigatus IgG combined with BALF-GM test has a good diagnostic efficacy for CPA. The detection of serum Aspergillus fumigatus IgG is non-invasive and highly specific, which is beneficial to the early diagnosis and treatment of CPA.

Objective:To study the effect of Wuzhi capsules on tacrolimus trough concentration in kidney transplant recipients with different CYP3A5 genotypes.Methods:From June 2015 to October 2019, 162 patients who underwent renal transplantation for the first time were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into two groups, combined and uncombined, according to whether combined with Wuzhi capsules. There were 81 cases in the uncombined group (55 males and 26 females), and 81 in the combined group (62 males and 19 females). There was no significant difference between the two groups( P=0.219). The ages of the uncombined group and the combined group were (39.26±11.91) years old and (37.21±10.88) years old ( P=0.103), the weights were (62.39±11.64) kg and (66.18±13.89)kg ( P=0.298), systolic blood pressure were (147.28±20.24) mmHg and (145.00±16.42) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa)( P=0.276), diastolic blood pressure were (92.25±13.87) mmHg and (92.20±12.53) mmHg ( P=0.886), alanine aminotransferase were (12.24±8.59) U/L and (17.06±13.11) U/L ( P=0.015), aspartate aminotransferase were (17.76±9.12) U/L and (16.57±8.37) U/L ( P=0.463), fasting blood glucose were (8.70±3.48) mmol/L and (7.18±2.74)mmol/L ( P=0.006), hemoglobin were (98.96±17.53) g/L and (101.05±18.67) g/L ( P=0.789), creatinine were (665.22±296.55) μmol/L and (797.32±279.32) μmol/L ( P=0.007), estimated glomerular filtration rate were (11.47±14.11) ml/(min·1.73m 2) and (8.85±3.71) ml/(min·1.73m 2) ( P=0.130)in the kidney transplant recipients before surgery. Among the 162 cases in this study, there were 86 cases (53.09%) of CYP3A5*1*3 genotype, 17 cases (10.49%) of CYP3A5*1*1 genotype, 59 cases (36.42%) of CYP3A5*3*3 genotype, and the minimum allele frequency of CYP3A5*1 was 37.04%. In the uncombined group, CYP3A5*1*3 genotype 39 cases (48.15%), CYP3A5*1*1 genotype 5 cases (6.17%), and CYP3A5*3*3 genotype 37 cases (45.68%). In the combined group, CYP3A5*1*3 genotype 47 cases (58.02%), CYP3A5*1*1 genotype 12 cases (14.81%), and CYP3A5*3*3 genotype 22 cases (27.16%), with statistically significant differences in the two groups ( P=0.024). The patients were treated with a triple immunosuppressive regimen (tacrolimus+ mycophenolate mofetil+ glucocorticoid) based on tacrolimus [initial dose: 0.15-0.30 mg/(kg·d)], combination of Wuzhi capsules in the combination group (11.25 mg, twice a day). The trough concentration of tacrolimus was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, compare the difference in the trough concentration of tacrolimus between the two groups. The relationship between the effect of Wuzhi capsules and CYP3A5 gene polymorphism was compared, and compare the changes before and after the application of CYP3A5 genotype combined with Wuzhi Capsules. The influencing factors of tacrolimus trough concentration were analyzed by multiple linear regression. Results:In the combined with Wuzhi capsules, the dose corrected trough concentration (C 0/D) of tacrolimus was higher than that in patients without Wuzhi capsules, and the extent of increase was related to genotype. The C 0/D of tacrolimus in patients with CYP3A5*3*3 genotype in the combination and non-combination groups were (12.15±2.95) (ng·ml -1/0.1mg·kg -1·d -1) and (9.99±2.33) (ng·ml -1/0.1mg·kg -1·d -1) ( P=0.004), CYP3A5*1*3 genotype were (11.11±3.20) (ng·ml -1/0.1mg·kg -1·d -1) and (6.86±1.62) (ng·ml -1/0.1mg·kg -1·d -1) ( P<0.001), and there were significant difference. However, CYP3A5*1*1 genotype were(8.29±2.64) (ng·ml -1/0.1mg·kg -1·d -1) and (6.16±2.87) (ng·ml -1/0.1mg·kg -1·d -1) ( P=0.160), there was no significant difference. The tacrolimus C 0/D of the combined group before and after the Wuzhi capsule were as follows: CYP3A5*3*3 genotype: (7.18±2.33)(ng·ml -1/0.1mg·kg -1·d -1) and (13.33±3.09) (ng·ml -1/0.1mg·kg -1·d -1) ( P<0.001); CYP3A5*1*3 genotype: (5.14±2.14) (ng·ml -1/0.1mg·kg -1·d -1) and (10.61±3.20) (ng·ml -1/0.1mg·kg -1·d -1) ( P<0.001); CYP3A5*1*1 genotype: (5.17±3.75) (ng·ml -1/0.1mg·kg -1·d -1) and (8.31±2.74) (ng·ml -1/0.1mg·kg -1·d -1)( P=0.002), and the differences were statistically significant. The results of multiple linear regression showed that the combination of Wuzhi capsules (β=0.508, P<0.001) and CYP3A5 genotype(CYP3A5*1*3 and CYP3A5*3*3: β=-0.361, P<0.001; CYP3A5*1*1 and CYP3A5*3*3: β=-0.425, P<0.001)could influence the trough concentration. The sex (β=-0.100, P=0.124) and age (β=-0.003, P=0.967) of renal transplant recipients had no statistical significance to tacrolimus C 0/D. Conclusions:In the renal transplant patients, CYP3A5 genotype and combined use of Wuzhi capsules are the main factors affecting tacrolimus C 0/D. In order to achieve the expected trough concentration as soon as possible, the interaction between CYP3A5 genotypes and drug combination should be considered.

BACKGROUNDEndoscopic submucosal dissection of the esophagogastric junction is the most difficult gastric and esophageal dissection procedure. No reports of endoscopic submucosal dissection for Siewert type II carcinoma of the esophagogastric junction have compared the outcomes of endoscopic submucosal dissection for all three Siewert types of adenocarcinoma. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of endoscopic submucosal dissection for intraepithelial neoplasia of the esophagogastric junction.
METHODSFrom October 2008 to June 2013, 73 patients underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection for intraepithelial neoplasia of the esophagogastric junction. The patients were prospectively evaluated regarding the executability of the technique, short-term results of the procedure, en bloc resection rate, curative resection rate, complications and additional treatment after endoscopic submucosal dissection, and follow-up outcomes.
RESULTSSixty-eight of the 73 patients (93.2%) underwent en bloc resection; the mean maximum specimen diameter was 33.7 mm. Fifty-seven of 61 patients (93.4%) who underwent curative resection were successfully followed-up for 1.0 to 56.0 months (average, 24.1 months). Local recurrence developed in one patient with high-grade intraepithelial neoplasm. Twelve patients underwent noncurative resection, including lateral resection margin residues in three, vertical resection margin residues in one, signet ring cell carcinoma or undifferentiated adenocarcinoma in four, lymphatic or vessel invasion in one, vertical residual margin residues combined with signet ring cell carcinoma in one, and undifferentiated adenocarcinoma with lymphatic or vessel invasion in two. In the noncurative resection group, one patient was lost to follow-up, seven underwent additional surgery, and the remaining four were periodically followed up; none had local recurrence or distant metastases. The only complication was delayed bleeding in three patients, which was successfully controlled by conservative treatment or endoscopic therapy.
CONCLUSIONSEndoscopic submucosal dissection is safe and effective for intraepithelial neoplasia of the esophagogastric junction. R0 en bloc resection is possible and can avoid the risk of local recurrence.
