Abstract
Objective Infections after a second hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) occur commonly and are associated with high mortality. However, studies on bloodstream infection (BSI) after a second HSCT are lacking. We therefore evaluated the details of BSI after a second HSCT. Methods We retrospectively evaluated the incidence, etiology, risk factors, and outcomes of BSI after a second HSCT. Patients Fifty-two adult patients with hematological malignancies who underwent allogeneic HSCT, including cord blood transplantation (CBT; n=33), as the second transplantation were enrolled. The second transplantation was limited to allogeneic HSCT. Patients who underwent HSCT for graft failure were excluded. Results The median HSCT interval was 438 (range: 39-3,893) days. Overall, 31 (59.6%) patients received autologous HSCT as the first HSCT. The cumulative incidence of BSI was 40.4% at 100 days after the second HSCT, with Gram-positive bacteria accounting for the majority (30.8%) of pathogens. Overall, 92.0% of BSIs occurred during the pre-engraftment period, and Enterococcus faecium accounted for 29.6% of pathogens. On a multivariate analysis, CBT was most closely associated with pre-engraftment BSI after the second HSCT (hazard ratio: 3.43, 95% confidence interval: 1.05-11.23, p=0.042). The 1-year survival rate after the second HSCT was lower in patients with BSI than in patients without BSI (p=0.10). Conclusion BSI is common after a second HSCT, especially with CBT. During the pre-engraftment period, BSI caused by pathogens such as E. faecium should be anticipated and appropriately treated to improve transplant outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the application value of metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) in children with hematological diseases presenting with Febrile Neutropenic (FN). METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 49 hematological children with FN, and compared the results of mNGS with those of traditional pathogen detection (TPD) and the prognoses of mNGS positive group and negative group. RESULTS A total of 77 pathogenic strains were identified, of which 70 strains were detected by mNGS, 19 strains by TPD , and Aspergillus and G- bacterias were the predominant strains in FN children who developed bloodstream infections. 42 cases were in the mNGS-positive group, of which 17 were simple infections, 25 were mixed infections, and 7 were in the negative group; the TPD-positive group contained 19 cases, all of which were simple infections. The detection rate of total and mixed pathogens was higher than that of TPD, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). mNGS positive group was detected earlier than the negative group, and with lower mortality and drug-related adverse events (DRAE) , and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). CONCLUSION For FN children with hematological diseases, early mNGS can effectively improve the efficacy of pathogen detection, and precise treatment after clarifying the pathogens can reduce mortality and avoid antibiotic abuse.

Abstract
Infectious complications are the most common and significant cause of mortality and morbidity after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Antibacterial prophylaxis in pediatric cancer patients is a controversial issue. Our study compared the outcomes of levofloxacin versus ciprofloxacin prophylaxis in allogeneic HSCT pediatric recipients treated for hematological malignancies. A total of 120 patients received levofloxacin prophylaxis, and 60 patients received ciprofloxacin prophylaxis. Baseline characteristics such as age, gender, primary diagnosis, type of conditioning, donor type, stem cell source, and supportive care of the patients were similar, and duration of antibiotics prophylaxis was similar. Both prophylaxis regimens demonstrated the same efficacy on the risk of febrile neutropenia and severe complications such as sepsis, the same rate of overall mortality, hospital readmission, and length of hospital stay. Levofloxacin prophylaxis was associated with significantly lower cumulative antibiotic exposure. The median of Gram-positive infection-related antibiotic days was 10 days in the levofloxacin group versus 25 days in the ciprofloxacin group (p < 0.0001). The median of Gram-negative infection-related antibiotics was 10 days in the levofloxacin group compared with 20 days in the ciprofloxacin group (p < 0.0001). The number of days with body temperature ≥38 °C was significantly less in the levofloxacin group (p < 0.001).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although the use of cord blood transplantation (CBT) is becoming more frequent in acute leukemia, considering the relationship between the low stem cell dose and graft failure, whether use of CBT for adolescents and young adults (AYAs) is appropriate remains uncertain. METHODS A retrospective registry-based analysis of clinical outcomes and immune reconstitution was conducted for 105 AYAs and 187 children with acute leukemia who underwent single-unit CBT using myeloablative conditioning (MAC) without antithymocyte globulin (ATG). RESULTS Outcomes were similar between AYAs and children, except for nonrelapse mortality (NRM) and recovery rates of neutrophils and platelets. The 30-day cumulative incidence of neutrophil engraftment was similar between AYAs and children, but children had faster rates of neutrophil and platelet recovery than AYAs. The median time to neutrophil engraftment was earlier in children than in AYAs (AYAs, 19 days, 95% confidence interval [CI] 17.3-21.7; children, 16 days, 95% CI 13.1-19.5, p = 0.00003). The incidence of platelet recovery on day 120 was higher in children than in AYAs (AYAs, 80%, 95% CI 71-81%; children, 88%, 95% CI 82-92%, p = 0.037). CD34+ cell dose was the only independent factor influencing both neutrophil and platelet recovery. The cumulative incidence of NRM at 2 years was higher among AYAs than among children (AYAs, 27.5%, 95% CI 20-37%; children, 15%, 95% CI 10-21%, p = 0.008). Conditioning regimen was an independent factor influencing NRM. With respect to immune reconstitution, natural killer cell counts quickly recovered to normal levels 1-month post-CBT in both children and AYAs. CD8+ T-cell counts were higher in children than in AYAs at 1 and 3 months post-CBT. CD4+ T-cell counts were similar in both children and AYAs after CBT. CONCLUSION AYAs with acute leukemia have outcomes of single-unit CBT using MAC without ATG that are as good as those of children. Thus, single-unit CBT using modified MAC without ATG is an acceptable choice for both AYAs and children who do not have a suitable donor.

Abstract
Bloodstream infection (BSI) is a major infectious complication after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). To clarify the impact of graft cell source on the incidence of BSI after transplantation, we retrospectively examined 782 adult patients receiving their first allogeneic HCT: 122 recipients of related peripheral blood stem cells or bone marrow, 215 recipients of unrelated bone marrow, and 445 recipients of unrelated umbilical cord blood (U-CB). The cumulative incidence of BSI was 42.5% at 100 days after transplantation (95% confidence interval, 39.0-46.0). Gram-positive cocci were present in 64.2% of detected isolates. Among the pre-transplant factors including age, performance status, primary disease, disease status, graft cell source, sex and ABO blood type matching, and the intensity of conditioning regimen, U-CB use was identified as the most significant risk factor for BSI by multivariate analysis (hazard ratio, 1.76; 95% confidence interval, 1.40-2.22; p < 0.00001). Among the U-CB recipients, those who are not in remission at the time of transplantation were at the greatest risk of BSI (hazard ratio, 1.69; 95% confidence interval, 1.14-2.50; p < 0.01). The study makes it clear that graft cell source has an impact on BSI development after allogeneic HCT.

Abstract
Incidence and outcome of infections after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) with post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PT-Cy) as graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis are largely unknown. Study aims were to estimate the incidence of pre-engraftment bloodstream infections (PE-BSIs) and viral infections (VIs; cytomegalovirus [CMV], adenovirus [ADV], human herpes virus 6 [HHV6], and BK-polyomavirus hemorrhagic-cystitis [BKPyV-HC]), their predictive factors, and infection-related mortality (IRM) after HSCT with PT-Cy. We analyzed 235 patients: 62%, 21%, and 17% received haploidentical (haplo), matched-unrelated donor (MUD), and matched-related donor, respectively. Overall, 72 patients had 77 PE-BSI episodes at a median time of 13 days after HSCT: cumulative incidence function (CIF) at 28 days was 32%, without differences among donor types (P = .988). By multivariate analysis, CIF of PE-BSI was higher in patients with severe neutropenia before HSCT (adjusted hazard ratio [AHR] = 2.90) and in multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria rectal carriers (AHR = 2.68). IRM at 30 days was 5%, without differences by donor type (P = .106). Overall, 208 patients experienced ≥1 VIs (first occurrence among CMV, HHV6, ADV, BKPyV-HC) at a median time of 20 days after HSCT: CIF at 90 days was 91%, significantly higher in MUD and haplo (P = .0089). By multivariate analysis, also acute GVHD grade ≥2 (AHR = 1.32) and host/donor CMV-serology mismatch (positive/positive versus negative/negative: AHR = 2.95, positive/negative versus negative/negative: AHR = 2.41, negative/positive versus negative/negative: AHR = 2.35) affected VIs occurrence. IRM at 180 days was 8%, without differences among donor types (P = .106). In conclusion, study results did not show a significant impact of donor type on PE-BSI incidence; conversely, MUD and haploidentical transplants retained a higher occurrence of VIs in the early phase after HSCT.

Abstract
Bloodstream infection (BSI) remains a serious complication in patients with hematologic malignancies and neutropenia. The risk factors for mortality after BSI and the contributions of BSI pathogens to mortality remain incompletely understood. We evaluated first BSI among adult neutropenic patients undergoing high-dose chemotherapy for hematologic malignancies in the setting of (a) an early disease stage of autologous (auto-HSCT) or allogeneic (allo-HSCT) hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or (b) for acute leukemia. Risk factors for intensive care admission and all-cause mortality were analyzed by multivariable logistic regression 7 and 30 days after onset of the first BSI in the first neutropenic episode. Between 2002 and 2015, 9080 patients met the study inclusion criteria, and 1424 (16%) developed BSIs, most of them during the first week of neutropenia. Mortality during neutropenia within 7 days and 30 days after BSI onset was 2.5% and 5.1%, respectively, and differed considerably between BSI pathogens. Both 7-day and 30-day mortalities were highest for Pseudomonas aeruginosa BSI (16.7% and 26.7%, respectively) and lowest for BSI due to coagulase-negative Staphylococcus spp. (CoNS) and Streptococcus spp. BSI pathogens were independently associated with 7-day mortality included P aeruginosa, Klebsiella spp., Enterobacter spp., Serratia spp., and enterococci. Only gram-negative BSI and candidemia were associated with admission to intensive care within 7 days after BSI onset. BSI caused by P aeruginosa continues to carry a particularly poor prognosis in neutropenic patients. The unexpected association between enterococcal BSI and increased mortality needs further study.

Abstract
Background Extensively drug-resistant Gram-negative bacterial (XDR-GNB) bloodstream infection (BSI) is difficult to treat and is associated with a high mortality rate in patients with hematological diseases. The aim of this study is to investigate the predisposing risk factors and the efficacy of the antibiotic treatment in these patients, including exploration of efficacy and adverse effects of high-dose tigecycline. Methods Between January 2013 and December 2017, 27 XDR-GNB BSI patients with hematological diseases were diagnosed and retrospectively reviewed in the current study. Results Clinical response in patients with severe complications (such as severe neutropenia >10 days, grade III–IV acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD), and concurrent pneumonia) was significantly lower than in patients without or with only mild complications (P=0.033). The efficacy rate was 62.5% (10/16) in patients with tigecycline-based combination therapy regimen, 77.8% (7/9) with a high-dose tigecycline regimen, and 42.9% (3/7) with a standard-dose tigecycline regimen (P=0.36). The 30-day survival rates of patients undergoing high-dose or standard-dose tigecycline treatment were 66.7% (95% CI: 28.2–87.8) and 57.1% (95% CI: 17.2–83.7), respectively, (P=0.603). Patients with mild complications were associated with superior 30-day survival rates than patients with severe complications (93.8% vs 36.4%, P=0.001), >10 days of neutropenia (90.9% vs 33.3%, P=0.012), severe aGVHD (100% vs 40%, P=0.049), and concurrent pneumonia (84.6% vs 57.1%, P=0.048). Conclusion Our study indicated that XDR-GNB BSI in patients of hematological diseases with severe complications, such as long duration of neutropenia (>10 days) and severe aGVHD were associated with poor clinical response and short survival. We first indicated that these patients undergoing high-dose tigecycline treatment had an improved clinical response and an increased 30-day survival rate compared with the standard-dose group, although the differences were not statistically significant. This might be due to more severe complicated patients enrolled in high-dose group and the limited number size in our study.

Pre-Engraftment Bloodstream Infections after Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation: Impact of T Cell-Replete Transplantation from a Haploidentical Donor.

Abstract
Bloodstream infections (BSIs) are frequent and important infectious complications after hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). The aim of this study was to analyze the incidence, risk factors, and outcome of pre-engraftment BSIs after allogeneic HCT. We retrospectively analyzed data from 553 consecutive patients who underwent HCT between 2010 and 2016. Sixty percent of the patients received T cell-replete unmanipulated haploidentical bone marrow with high-dose post-transplantation cyclophosphamide. The BSI rate was 30%; among isolated 213 pathogens, 54% were Gram-positive, 43% were Gram-negative, and 3% were fungi. Independent risk factors for pre-engraftment BSI were transplantation from a haploidentical donor or from cord blood (P < .001), active disease (P = .002), age (P = .04), and myeloproliferative disorders or aplastic anemia (P < .001). Transplantation from a haploidentical donor was an independent risk factor for both Gram-positive and Gram-negative BSI. The 7-day mortality after any BSI was 5% (9 of 178), and in multivariate analysis, BSI etiology was the sole risk factor, with increased mortality in carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative BSI (P < .001). Nonrelapse mortality at day +60 after HCT was 3.8% (21 of 553); independent predictors were active disease (P = .045), year of HCT (P = .027), nonengraftment (P = .001), and pre-engraftment BSI (P < .001), with significantly higher risk in BSI due to Gram-negative pathogens compared with Gram-positive pathogens, and BSI due to carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative pathogens compared with susceptible pathogens. Pre-engraftment BSI is a frequent complication after HCT from a haploidentical donor or cord blood. Because the negative impact of pre-engraftment BSI on 60-day nonrelapse mortality was caused mainly by carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative pathogens, particular attention should be given to appropriate empiric therapy and management of patients at high risk for Gram-negative BSI.
