Objective:To assess the efficacy and safety of trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole (TMP/SMZ) combined with caspofungin for the treatment of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)patients with moderate to severe pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP) requiring mechanical ventilation.Methods:The clinical data of AIDS patients who admitted to Chongqing Public Health Medical Center from March 1, 2019 to March 1, 2021 with moderate to severe PCP requiring mechanical ventilation were retrospectively analyzed. Clinical characteristics and outcomes were compared between two groups receiving either combination therapy with TMP/SMZ and caspofungin (combination therapy group) or TMP/SMZ monotherapy (monotherapy group). The patients were divided into two subgroups according to the baseline arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO 2), patients with arterial PaO 2≥50 mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) and PaO 2 <50 mmHg. The clinical efficacies of combination therapy and monotherapy in each subgroup were further compared. Chi-square and Fisher exact test were used for statistical analysis. The three-month survival was estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method, and the three-month survival rates were compared by Log-rank method. Results:A total of 83 patients were enrolled, including 23 in the monotherapy group and 60 in the combination therapy group. There was no significant difference in all-cause hospital mortalities between these two groups (34.8%(8/23) vs 23.3%(14/60), χ2=1.12, P=0.290). Kaplan-Meier survival curves indicated no significant difference in the three-month survival rates between the two groups ( χ2=0.51, P=0.477). There ware no significant differences observed in the positive clinical response rates and the mechanical ventilation rates after seven days of anti-PCP treatment between the two groups ( χ2=0.02 and 0.01, respectively, both P>0.05). In the 52 patients with PaO 2≥50 mmHg, no significant difference in all-cause hospital mortalities was observed between the monotherapy group and the combination therapy group (2/13 vs 25.6%(10/39), χ2=0.14, P=0.704). There was no statistical significance in the three-month survival rates between the two groups ( χ2=0.69, P=0.407). No significant difference was observed either in the clinical positive response rates or the mechanical ventilation rates after seven days of anti-PCP treatment between the two group( χ2=1.02 and 0.69, respectively, both P>0.05). In the 31 patients with PaO 2<50 mmHg, the all-cause hospital mortality in the combination therapy group was 19.0%(4/21), while six of the 10 patients in the monotherapy group died, and the difference was statistically significant (Fisher exact test, P=0.040). The three-month survival rate in the combination therapy group was significantly higher than that in the monotherapy group ( χ2=4.09, P=0.043). There were no significant differences in clinical positive response rate and the mechanical ventilation rate after seven days of anti-PCP treatment between the two group (Fisher exact test, both P>0.05). The overall adverse event rate in the monotherapy group was 87.0%(20/23), with an incidence of 56.5%(13/23) for both electrolyte disturbances and bone marrow suppression. The above incidences in the combination therapy group were 78.3%(47/60), 35.0%(21/60) and 53.3%(32/60), respectively, and all differences were not statistically significant ( χ2=0.34, 3.18 and 0.07, respectively, all P>0.05). Conclusions:The efficacy of combination therapy with TMP/SMZ and caspofungin is comparable to that of TMP/SMZ monotherapy in AIDS patients with moderate to severe PCP requiring mechanical ventilation. However, in AIDS patients with PCP requiring mechanical ventilation with the baseline PaO 2<50 mmHg, the efficacy of combination therapy is statistically superior to that of TMP/SMZ monotherapy. Combination therapy does not increase the risk of adverse events.

Background::The preferred therapeutic regimen for Toxoplasma encephalitis (TE) is a combination of pyrimethamine and sulfadiazine, and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TMP-SMX) plus azithromycin is the widespread alternative therapeutic regimen. The synergistic sulfonamides tablet contains TMP, sulfadiazine, and SMX and hypothetically could be used for TE treatment. This study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of synergistic sulfonamides plus clindamycin (regimen B) with TMP-SMX plus azithromycin (regimen A) for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) associated TE.Methods::This was an open-labeled, multi-center randomized controlled trial recruited from 11 centers. Each recruited patient was randomly assigned to receive regimen A or regimen B for at least 6 weeks. The overall response was evaluated by assessment of the clinical response of TE-associated clinical features and the radiological response of TE-associated radiological findings. The overall response rate, clinical response rate, radiological response rate, and adverse events were assessed at 2, 6, and 12 weeks. Death events were compared between the two regimens at 6, 12, and 24 weeks.Results::A total of 91 acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)/TE patients were included in the final analysis (44 in regimen A vs. 47 in regimen B). The overall response rate, which refers to the combined clinical and radiological response, was 18.2% (8/44) for regimen A and 21.3 % (10/47) for regimen B at week 6. The results of clinical response showed that, in comparison with regimen A, regimen B may perform better with regards to its effect on the relief of clinical manifestations (50.0% [22/44] vs. 70.2% [33/47], P = 0.049). However, no significant differences in radiological response, mortality events, and adverse events were found between the two regimens at week 6. Conclusions::Synergistic sulfonamides plus clindamycin, as a novel treatment regimen, showed no significantly different efficacy and comparable safety in comparison with the TMP-SMX plus azithromycin regimen. In addition, the regimen containing synergistic sulfonamides may exhibit advantages in terms of clinical symptom alleviation.Trial Registration::ChiCTR.org.cn, ChiCTR1900021195.

Objective To summarize the clinical features of encephalopathy caused by Toxoplasma gondii in AIDS patients for improving clinical diagnosis and treatment of such cases. Methods The clinical data of patients with AIDS and toxoplasmic encephalopathy were collected retrospectively. The prevalence of toxoplasmic encephalopathy in AIDS patients was analyzed. The anti-toxoplasmic efficacy of trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (SMZ-TMP) plus azithromycin was reviewed. Results Toxoplasmic encephalopathy was reported in about 10.0％ of the AIDS patients complicated with central nervous system disorder. Headache, fever, and limb movement disorder were the most common symptoms. Head CT/MRI scan showed that 89.5％ of the patients had multiple lesions, mostly in the parietal lobe, temporal lobe and basal ganglia. Enhancement scan revealed thatcircular enhanced foci in 76.9％ of the patients, nodular enhanced foci in 59.0％ of the patients, and surrounding edema in 79.5％ of the patients. The mean CD4+ T lymphocytes was (65.8±59.3)/μL.Anti-toxoplasmic IgG was positive in 50.0％ of the patients, higher than that of IgM (11.5％) (P＜0.05). The positive rate of IgG antibody specific for Toxoplasma gondii tested by ELISA was higher than that detected by rapid colloidal gold immunoassay (P＜0.05). Increased cerebrospinal fluid pressure was found in 42.6％ of the patients. Increased protein in CSF was identified in 66.0％ of the patients. Most (84.2％) patients were improved after treatment with SMZ-TMP plus azithromycin. Conclusions Toxoplasmic encephalopathy is one common central nervous system disease in AIDS patients. The clinical symptoms are nonspecific. There are some features in imaging examination. Low count of CD4+ T lymphocytes makes patients more susceptible to Toxoplasma infection. The anti-toxoplasmic IgG antibody may be helpful for diagnosis. The results of cerebrospinal fluid examination are not specific. SMZ-TMP in combination with azithromycin promises good treatment effect.

Objective To analyze the correlation between inspiratory muscle strength and pulmonary ventilation function in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients.Methods A total of 41 COPD patients admitted in the Second Xiangya Hospital from January to September 2018 were screened.The inspiratory muscle strength (MIP) and peak inspiratory flow (PIF) of patients were measured by using POWER breathe K-5 tester.The MIP was also calculated as a percentage of the predicted value.A pulmonary function detector was used to measure the forced vital capacity (FVC),forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1 ％),FEV1 as a percentage of FVC (FEV1/FVC％),peak expiratory flow (PEF),forced expiratory flow as a percentage of the predicted value (FEF 50％) at 50％ of vital capacity and forced expiratory flow rate as a percentage of the predicted value (FEF 75％) at 75％ of vital capacity.According to the Gobal Inistiative for chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) classification method of COPD patients,the corresponding MIP value and PIF value of the patients were divided into 4 groups and conducted the comparison between groups.Pearson correlation was used to analyze the correlation between the above-mentioned inspiratory muscle strength test values and lung ventilation function test values,and a scatter diagram was drawn for the ones that had a correlation.Results Among the 41 patients,39 (95.1％) had a decrease in inspiratory muscle strength.According to the GOLD classification,the mean MIP value has a difference among the 4 groups.The mean MIP of grade Ⅲ was [(47.09 ± 29.42) cmH2O],which was higher than that of grade Ⅳ of [(24.72 ± 7.66) cmH2 O] (P ＜ 0.05).There was no difference between PIF.The MIP was positively correlated with FVC (P ＜0.05).There was no correlation between MIP and FEV1 ％,FEV1/FVC％,PEF,FEF50％ and FEF75％ (P ＞0.05).The MIP as a percentage of the predicted value had a weak positive correlation with FVC and FEV1％ (P ＜0.05).There was no significant correlation between MIP as a percentage of the predicted value and FEV1/FVC％,PEF,FEF50％ and FEF75％ (P ＞0.05).PIF had a weak positive correlation with FVC,PEF,FEF50％ and FEF75％,with statistically significant difference (P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant correlation between PIF and FEV1 ％ and FEV1/FVC％ (P ＞0.05).Conclusions Inspiratory muscle dysfunction was common in patients with COPD.There was a difference in MIP among different GOLD lung function classification in COPD patients.Some values of the inspiratory muscle strength and lung ventilation function had a weak-moderate correlation,while some values had no correlation.Therefore,inspiratory muscle strength test cannot replace the lung ventilation function test in COPD patients.
