Abstract
INTRODUCTION Posttransplant lymphoproliferative disease (PTLD) is a critical complication of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). PTLD is classified into early and late-onset PTLDs. In post-HSCT patients, late-onset PTLD is rare, particularly PTLD after HSCT for Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-related lymphoproliferative disease. Here, we report the case of a patient diagnosed with late-onset EBV-related hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH), that of PTLD, after HSCT for chronic active EBV infection (CAEBV), that of EBV related lymphoproliferative disease, probably because of EBV reactivation. PATIENT CONCERNS AND DIAGNOSIS A 22-year-old woman with abdominal fullness visited our hospital. Blood examination showed pancytopenia with atypical lymphocytes, liver dysfunction, and elevated lactate dehydrogenase level. In contrast, bone marrow aspiration showed slight hemophagocytosis with increased natural-killer cells (NK cells). As serum antibodies against EBV were atypical, we calculated the EBV-DNA level in peripheral blood and this level was significantly high. EBV was infected with NK cells, and EBV's monoclonality in NK cells was confirmed. Thus, the patient was diagnosed with CAEBV. INTERVENTIONS AND OUTCOMES The patient received chemotherapy and cord blood cell transplantation (CBT); CAEBV was well controlled. Approximately 6years from CBT for CAEBV, she visited our hospital because of fever. Blood examination revealed pancytopenia with atypical lymphocytes, liver dysfunction, and elevated lactate dehydrogenase level. In contrast, bone marrow aspiration showed hemophagocytosis with increased B and T cell counts without increased NK cell count. Additionally, serum antibody titers against EBV were atypical, and the EBV-DNA level in the peripheral blood was high. EBV was infected with only B cells, and EBV's monoclonality was confirmed. A more detailed analysis indicated that EBV-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes were inactive. Therefore, she was diagnosed with late-onset EBV-related HLH. She received extensive treatment, but EBV-related HLH did not improve. Finally, she died about 3 weeks after diagnosis. CONCLUSION PTLD, including HLH, is a life-threatening complication after transplantation, including HSCT. To our knowledge, this is the first case of late-onset EBV-related HLH after CBT for CAEBV. Late-onset PTLD has an indolent clinical course, but our patient's disease course was extremely aggressive. Therefore, late-onset EBV-related PTLD may be life-threatening.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is an important human pathogen; it infects >90% people globally and is linked to infectious mononucleosis and several types of cancer. Vaccines against EBV are in development. In this study we present the first systematic review of the literature on risk factors for EBV infection, and discuss how they differ between settings, in order to improve our understanding of EBV epidemiology and aid the design of effective vaccination strategies. METHODS MEDLINE, Embase, and Web of Science were searched on 6th March 2017 for observational studies of risk factors for EBV infection. Studies were excluded if they were published before 2008 to ensure relevance to the modern day, given the importance of influencing future vaccination policies. There were no language restrictions. After title, abstract and full text screening, followed by checking the reference lists of included studies to identify further studies, data were extracted into standardised spreadsheets and quality assessed. A narrative synthesis was undertaken. RESULTS Seventy-seven papers met our inclusion criteria, including data from 31 countries. There was consistent evidence that EBV seroprevalence was associated with age, increasing throughout childhood and adolescence and remaining constant thereafter. EBV was generally acquired at younger ages in Asia than Europe/North America. There was also compelling evidence for an association between cytomegalovirus infection and EBV. Additional factors associated with EBV seroprevalence, albeit with less consistent evidence, included ethnicity, socioeconomic status, other chronic viral infections, and genetic variants of HLA and immune response genes. CONCLUSIONS Our study is the first systematic review to draw together the global literature on the risk factors for EBV infection and includes an evaluation of the quality of the published evidence. Across the literature, the factors examined are diverse. In Asia, early vaccination of infants would be required to prevent EBV infection. In contrast, in Western countries a vaccine could be deployed later, particularly if it has only a short duration of protection and the intention was to protect against infectious mononucleosis. There is a lack of high-quality data on the prevalence and age of EBV infection outside of Europe, North America and South-East Asia, which are essential for informing effective vaccination policies in these settings.

Abstract
Background Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) is a rare complication following solid organ transplantation and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (Allo-HSCT), which gives rise to high mortality rates. Material/Methods This was a single-center retrospective analysis based on 27 patients who were diagnosed with PTLD following Allo-HSCT between January 1, 2007 and June 2018 at the Chinese PLA General Hospital. The purpose of this analysis was to investigate responses and prognostic factors of rituximab-based treatment. Results Twenty-seven patients were treated with rituximab. Among them, 20 of 27 patients (74.07%) had a complete response, 2 of 27 patients (7.41%) had a partial response, 5 of 27 patients (18.52%) had no response, and 22 of 27 patients (81.48%) cleared Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) copies. There were no obvious side effects. The 1-year overall survival (OS) estimate was 46.8% (95% CI, 23.1–65.5%). Univariate analysis revealed that lower OS was correlated with Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score standard (3–4), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) viral load (≥106 copies/mL), bacteria or fungal infection, and EBV reactivation were positive after treatment with 1 or 2 doses of rituximab (P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that each of the following were independently associated with lower OS (P<0.05): female, ECOG score standard (3–4), and EBV reactivation were positive after treatment with 1 or 2 doses of rituximab. Conclusions Our results demonstrated that rituximab-based treatment was a safe and effective strategy for patients who were diagnosed with PTLD following Allo-HSCT. The identified prognostic factors may help to detect which PTLD patients are at a higher risk of mortality.

Epstein-Barr Virus-Related Post-Transplant Lymphoproliferative Disorders in Cystic Fibrosis Lung Transplant Recipients: A Case Series. Transplant Proc 2019; 51:194-197.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Solid organ transplantation is associated with a higher risk of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-related lymphoproliferative disease due to immunosuppressive regimen. Little evidence is currently available on post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLDs) in the lung transplant (LuTx) setting, particularly in cystic fibrosis (CF) recipients. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed all the cases of PTLDs that occurred in our LuTx center between January 2015 and December 2017. We reviewed clinical and radiologic data, donor and recipient EBV serostatus, immunosuppressive therapy, histologic data, and follow-up of these patients. RESULTS A total of 77 LuTxs were performed at our center in the study period; 39 (50.6%) patients had CF; 4 developed EBV-related PTLDs. They were all young (17-26 years) CF patients with high serum EBV DNA load. Disease onset was within the first 3 months after LuTx. In 3 cases presentation was associated with fever and infection-like symptoms, whereas in 1 case radiologic suspicion arose unexpectedly from a CT scan performed for different clinical reasons. Diagnosis was reached through lung biopsy in all cases. All patients received rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin hydrochloride (hydroxydaunomycin), vincristine sulfate (Oncovin), and prednisone with variable response and complications. CONCLUSION In our experience, the early development of EBV-related PTLD was a highly aggressive, life-threatening condition, which exclusively affected young CF patients in the early post-transplant period. The rate of this complication was relatively high in our population. Diagnosis with lung biopsy is crucial in all suspected cases and regular monitoring of EBV DNA levels is of utmost importance given the high correlation with PTLDs in patients at increased risk.

Abstract
Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) occurs in ~5% of solid organ and hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients. We report a unique presentation of PTLD in the bladder of a lung transplant recipient. Our patient was a 62-year-old female who received a bilateral lung transplant for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. She presented with fever, left-sided flank pain and foul-smelling urine consistent with urosepsis. An abdominal and pelvic computerized tomography revealed an irregular and nodular bladder wall thickening suspicious for urothelial neoplasm. Cystoscopy revealed multiple bladder masses and biopsy demonstrated non-Hodgkin lymphoma consistent with PTLD. She was treated with a reduction in immunosuppression followed by chemotherapy and achieved remission. PTLD in the lung transplant recipients has been described in the gut, respiratory tract, skin, liver and kidney but not in the bladder. This case highlights the need for maintaining a high clinical vigilance even when transplant recipients present with seemingly benign clinical complaints.

Abstract
A systematic review of papers in English on post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) in lung transplant recipients (LTR) using MEDLINE, EMBASE, SCOPUS, and Cochrane databases was performed. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) recommendations were strictly adhered to. Pooled odds ratios (pOR) were calculated from a random-effects model, and heterogeneity among studies was quantitated using I2 values. Fourteen studies published from 2005 to 2015 were included in the meta-analysis. One hundred and sixty-four lung transplant recipients were included. LTRs who received single vs bilateral were associated with a 7.67-fold risk of death after PTLD (6 studies with 64 LTRs; pOR 7.67 95% CI 1.98-29.70; P = .003). pOR of death for early onset PTLD (<1 year post-LT) vs late onset (>1 year post-LT) was not different (3 studies with 72 LTRS; pOR 0.62, 95% CI 0.20-1.86, P = .39). Standardized mean difference (SMD) in time from transplant to PTLD onset between LTRs who died vs alive was not different (9 studies with 109 LTRs; SMD 0.03, 95% CI -0.48-0.53, P = .92). Survival in polymorphic vs monomorphic PTLD and extranodal vs nodal disease was similar (4 studies with 31 LTRs; pOR 0.44, 95% CI 0.08-2.51; P = .36. 6 studies with 81 LTRs; pOR 1.05 95% CI 0.31-3.52, P = .94). This meta-analysis demonstrates that single LTRs are at a higher risk of death vs bilateral LTRs after the development of PTLD.
