Human Adenovirus Associated Hepatic Injury.

Human adenovirus (HAdV) is a common virus, but the infections it causes are relatively uncommon. At the same time, the methods for the detection of HAdV are varied, among which viral culture is still the gold standard. HAdV infection is usually self-limited but can also cause clinically symptomatic in lots of organs and tissues, of which human adenovirus pneumonia is the most common. In contrast, human adenovirus hepatitis is rarely reported. However, HAdV hepatitis has a high fatality rate once it occurs, especially in immunocompromised patients. Although human adenovirus hepatitis has some pathological and imaging features, its clinical symptoms are not typical. Therefore, HAdV hepatitis is not easy to be found in the clinic. There are kinds of treatments to treat this disease, but few are absolutely effective. In view of the above reasons, HAdV hepatitis is a disease that is difficult to be found in time. We reviewed and summarized the previously reported cases, hoping to bring some relatively common characteristics to clinicians, so as to facilitate early detection, early diagnosis, and early treatment of patients.

Risk factors of lower respiratory tract infection caused by Stenotrophomonas maltophilia: Systematic review and meta-analysis.

Objective: To systematically evaluate the risk factors of lower respiratory tract infection caused by Stenotrophomonas maltophilia for better clinical treatment. Methods: PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, Web of Science, China Journal full-text Database (CNKI), Wanfang Database (WanFang Data), VIP (VIP), and China Biomedical Literature Database (CBM) were selected and published by June 2022 about the risk factors of lower respiratory tract infection of S. maltophilia. Two researchers independently screened the literature, extracted data, and quality evaluation according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. RevMan 5.4 software was used for meta-analysis. Results: A total of 18 articles were included, including 10 in English and 8 in Chinese. Meta analysis showed that the risk factors of lower respiratory tract infection caused by S. maltophilia included disease severity, hospitalization days, use of glucocorticoids, invasive procedures, use of broad-spectrum antibiotics and use of more than 3 Antibiotics. The OR values of patients with hospitalization, mechanical ventilation, use of more than 3 Antibiotics, endotracheal intubation and tracheotomy were the highest. Specific hospitalization days (OR = 14.56, 95% CI: 6.12~23.01), mechanical ventilation (OR = 14.16, 95% CI: 5.85~34.3), use of more than 3 Antibiotics (OR = 6.21, 95% CI: 1.24~31.14), tracheal intubation (OR = 6.07, 95% CI: 1.97~3.64), tracheotomy (OR = 3.77, 95% CI: 1.09~13.04). Conclusion: There are many risk factors for lower respiratory tract infection of S. maltophilia, which can occur in patients with severe illness, high APACHE-II score, invasive procedures, and the need for broad-spectrum antibiotics. In terms of the host, these patients are characterized by impaired immune function, severe illness and long-term hospitalization, which objectively leads to the infection of S. maltophilia. Therefore, strengthening the monitoring, prevention and control of patients with risk factors of S. maltophilia infection is conducive to reducing the risk of infection and death.
