BMC Infect Dis 2024; 24:383. [PMID: 38589801 PMCID: PMC11003048 DOI: 10.1186/s12879-024-09284-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2023] [Accepted: 04/03/2024] [Indexed: 04/10/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has been able to improve the immune system function and survival of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) patients. However, Patients coinfected with HIV and hepatitis B virus (HBV) are more likely to develop end-stage liver disease (ESLD) than those infected with HBV alone. Consequently, liver transplantation is often required for these patients. This study evaluates the outcomes of orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) of HIV-HBV coinfected patients in China. METHODS We conducted a retrospective analysis on all HIV-HBV coinfected patients that underwent OLT from April 1, 2019 to December 31, 2021 and their outcomes were compared to all HBV monoinfected patients undergoing OLT during the same period. Patient outcomes were determined, including cumulative survival, viral load, CD4 T-cell count and postoperative complications. RESULTS The median follow-up of HIV recipients was 36 months after OLT (interquartile range 12-39 months). Almost all patients had stable CD4 T-cell count (> 200 copies/ul), undetectable HBV DNA levels, and undetectable HIV RNA load during follow-up. The 1-, 2-, and 3-year posttransplant survival rates were 85.7% for the HIV group (unchanged from 1 to 3 years) versus 82.2%, 81.2%, and 78.8% for the non-HIV group. Cumulative survival among HIV-HBV coinfected recipients was not significantly different from the HBV monoinfected recipients (log-rank test P = 0.692). The percentage of deaths attributed to infection was comparable between the HIV and non-HIV groups (14.3% vs. 9.32%, P = 0.665). Post OLT, there was no significant difference in acute rejection, cytomegalovirus infection, bacteremia, pulmonary infection, acute kidney injury, de novo tumor and vascular and biliary complications. CONCLUSIONS Liver transplantation in patients with HIV-HBV coinfection yields excellent outcomes in terms of intermediate- or long-term survival rate and low incidence of postoperative complications in China. These findings suggest that OLT is safe and feasible for HIV-HBV coinfected patients with ESLD. TRIAL REGISTRATION Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR2300067631), registered 11 January 2023.

Abstract
Liver transplantation (LT) is the only curative treatment for various liver diseases, including acute liver failure, end-stage liver disease, and selected unresectable liver malignancies. Combination antiretroviral therapy has improved outcomes for people living with HIV (PLWH), transforming the status of acquired immune deficiency syndrome from a fatal disease to a chronic and manageable condition. These powerful antiviral therapies have not only increased the number of HIV+ enlisted patients by improving their survival but also made the use of HIV+ organs a viable option. In this review, we summarise current knowledge on the peculiarities of liver transplantation in PLWH. In particular, we focus on the indications, contraindications, specific considerations for treatment, and outcomes of LT in PLWH. Finally, we present available preliminary data on the use of HIV+ liver allografts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive patients coinfected with hepatitis B virus (HBV) are eligible for liver transplantation (LT) in Africa and Southeast Asia, particularly China. However, the outcome of HIV-HBV coinfected patients referred for ABO-incompatible LT (ABOi-LT) is unknown.
AIM To clarify the outcome of ABOi-LT for HIV-HBV coinfected patients with end-stage liver disease (ESLD).
METHODS We report on two Chinese HIV-HBV coinfected patients with ESLD who underwent A to O brain-dead donor LT and reviewed the literature on HIV-HBV coinfected patients treated with ABO-compatible LT. The pretransplantation HIV viral load was undetectable, with no active opportunistic infections. Induction therapy consisted of two sessions of plasmapheresis and a single dose of rituximab in two split doses, followed by an intraoperative regimen of intravenous immunoglobulin, methylprednisolone, and basiliximab. Post-transplant maintenance immunosuppressive agents consisted of tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil, and prednisone.
RESULTS At the intermediate-term follow-up, patients showed undetectable HIV viral load, CD4(+) T cell counts greater than 150 cells/μL, no HBV recurrence, and stable liver function. A liver allograft biopsy showed no evidence of acute cellular rejection. Both patients survived at 36-42 mo of follow-up.
CONCLUSION This is the first report of ABOi-LT in HIV-HBV recipients with good intermediate-term outcomes, suggesting that ABOi-LT may be feasible and safe for HIV-HBV coinfected patients with ESLD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Organ failure (OF), a leading cause of death in HIV-positive individuals, is common in patients undergoing liver transplantation (LT). We examined the impact of HIV infection on pre- and post-LT mortalities in cirrhotic patients stratified by the number and type of OFs. METHODS We performed a cross-sectional study and a retrospective cohort study using the US National Inpatient Sample (NIS) and the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) registry data, respectively. Patients who had not yet undergone LT from the NIS database (2010-2014) and patients undergoing LT from the UNOS database (2003-2016) were included in the study. RESULTS Analysis of patients (201 348) from the NIS database showed that one [adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 1.531; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.160-2.023], two (aOR 1.624; 95% CI 1.266-2.083) or three or more OFs (aOR 1.349; 95% CI 1.165-1.562) were associated with higher pre-LT mortality in HIV-infected patients compared with HIV-negative patients with the corresponding number of OFs. In patients without OF, HIV infection was not associated with increased pre-LT mortality. UNOS data for patients undergoing LT (38 942) showed that the presence of two or more OFs was associated with increased post-LT 1-year mortality in HIV-infected patients compared with non-HIV-infected patients with the corresponding number of OFs (aOR 2.342; 95% CI 1.576-3.480). However, in patients with no OF or only one OF, HIV infection was not associated with increased post-LT 1-year mortality (aOR 1.372; 95% CI 0.911-2.068). CONCLUSIONS The results of this study emphasize the importance of preventing OF development, and justify LT for HIV-infected patients with no or only one OF.

Abstract
The hepatocytolysis raises questions on following therapeutic conduct when it occurs during chemotherapy for Hodgkin's lymphoma, expression of its liver toxicity. But the onset of primary liver Hodgkin's lymphoma, including the form manifested by acute liver failure, poses even greater problems, as in the case of occurrence of vanishing bile duct syndrome - expression of a paraneoplastic syndrome, hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, peliosis hepatis or association of lymphoma with infection with hepatitis viruses or human immunodeficiency virus or different autoimmune diseases. This review summarizes the clinical experience acquired on the relationship between Hodgkin's lymphoma and liver, from the point of view of clinical manifestations, used treatments and clinical evolution. Suggestions on the course of treatment in patients with Hodgkin's lymphoma and liver damage have been formulated starting from the metabolism and elimination of chemotherapy drugs and taking into account the clinical experience of published clinical trials and cases. This review is a synthesis of knowledge obtained in this field, during the time, of therapeutic possibilities and limits, and formulates potential future milestones for research.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Co-infected HIV and hepatitis subjects are candidates for a liver transplantation because of progressive liver disease. Chronic liver disease, co-infected or not, requires assessment of respiratory function before liver transplantation. The respiratory evaluation of these 2 groups compared with healthy individuals can define deficits, and this can impair a full recovery after transplant surgery. OBJECTIVE This study sought to compare the respiratory profile in co-infected patients with chronic liver disease who are candidates for liver transplantation with that of healthy subjects. METHODS Through respiratory evaluation of flows and lung volumes (spirometry), muscle activity (surface electromyography), and maximum pressure (manovacuometer), 250 people were distributed into 3 groups: 14 patients with HIV and liver disease, 65 healthy subjects, and 171 patients with chronic liver disease. The mean age (years) was respectively 47.5 ± 6.2, 48.3 ± 14.1, and 52.9 ± 8.5. The average body mass index (kg/m(2)) of the groups was 24.6 ± 4.5, 26.0 ± 3.2, and 28.5 ± 5.3, respectively. RESULTS There was a statistical difference among the groups in the root means square (RMS) rectus abdominis (μV) (P = .0016), RMS diaphragm (μV) (P = .0001), maximal inspiratory pressure (cmH2O) (P = .001), forced exhaled volume at the end of first second (%) (P = .002), and maximal mid expiratory flow 25% to 75% (%) (P = .0001) for the Kruskal-Wallis test. The multivariate analysis among the groups showed that the RMS diaphragm had a tendency to discriminate the co-infected subjects. CONCLUSIONS The co-infected HIV group showed a muscle deficit of diaphragm and rectus abdominis activity, and the liver disease group showed lower indexes in volumes and respiratory flows.

Pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP) and Pneumocystis jirovecii carriage in renal transplantation patients: a single-centre experience. Wien Klin Wochenschr 2014; 126:762-6.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Pneumocystis pneumonia is an increasing problem in transplanted patients: up to 25% suffer from Pneumocystis pneumonia, occurring during the first 6 months after transplantation. METHODS From 2001 to 2009, we investigated 21 patients with pneumonia after renal transplantation for the presence of Pneumocystis jirovecii. The laboratory diagnosis was established by Grocott and Giemsa staining methods and Pneumocystis-specific mitochondrial transcribed large subunit nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The PCR was also used for the differentiation of Pneumocystis pneumonia from Pneumocystis carriage. RESULTS Of 21 patients, 7 had a Pneumocystis pneumonia, 6 were Pneumocystis carriers and 8 patients were negative. Four out of seven Pneumocystis pneumonia patients and two out of six patients with Pneumocystis carriage had a delayed graft function. An acute cytomegalovirus infection after transplantation was not detectable in the patients with Pneumocystis pneumonia, but in three patients with Pneumocystis carriage. CONCLUSIONS Pneumocystis pneumonia was present in 33.3% of transplanted patients with suspected pneumonia. An association between acute rejection or co-infections and Pneumocystis pneumonia or carriage in patients after renal transplantation cannot be excluded. In three out of seven Pneumocystis pneumonia patients, an overlapping of hospitalisation times and an onset of Pneumocystis pneumonia 6 months after transplantation was found. Thus, person-to-person transmission seems probable in these cases.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Since the advent of combined antiretroviral therapy (cART), liver-related mortality has become the leading cause of non-AIDS-related deaths in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected patients in Western countries. OBJECTIVE To investigate the incidence, mortality and risk factors of end-stage liver disease (ESLD) in HIV and hepatitis C virus (HCV) coinfected former plasma donors (FPDs) and blood recipients (BRs). METHOD A retrospective study was conducted. RESULTS Of 321 HIV-HCV coinfected patients, 42 (13.1%) developed ESLD and 40 (12.5%) died. Factors that were independently associated with ESLD included older age at baseline (Odds ratios [OR]: 2.444, P=0.035), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) greater or equal to 2 (the upper limit of normal [ULN]) at the end of follow-up (OR: 16.460, P=0.000), hepatitis B virus (HBV) (OR: 2.525, P=0.043), CDC stage C (OR: 5.806, P=0.001), duration of cART greater than 5 years (OR: 3.256, P=0.010), and CD4 count greater or equal to 200 cells/mm(3) at the end of follow-up (OR: 0.383, P=0.016). The probability of developing ESLD in HIV-HCV coinfected BRs was significantly higher than in FPDs (P=0.008). Mortality was also significantly higher in HIV-HCV coinfected patients with ESLD than in those without ESLD (P=0.000). CONCLUSION In the cART era, ESLD was common among HIV-HCV coinfected Han Chinese patients and was responsible for reducing patient survival time.
