Aspergillus PCR in serum for the diagnosis, follow-up and prognosis of invasive aspergillosis in neutropenic and nonneutropenic patients  S. Imbert, L. Gauthier, I. Joly, J.-Y. Brossas, M. Uzunov, F.

Fig. 1 Flow chart showing number of patients and samples. 1Extended EORTC/MSG criteria included host factors as published in 2008 plus several other host factors now recognized as leading to risk of developing IA, namely alcoholic liver cirrhosis, severe acute respiratory syndrome, long stay in intensive care unit and solid organ cancer. 2Study design did not include exhaustive collection of possible cases; we present only possible cases with positive PCR results that were considered as IA by clinicians and treated as such.

Fig. 2 Venn diagram showing data for patients with invasive aspergillosis (n = 60). Diagram shows data for patients for whom PCR products and GM in sera as well as mycologic analysis of respiratory samples were available. Among ten patients with only positive PCR, one was positive for GM in bronchoalveolar lavage samples. GM, galactomannan.

Fig. 3 Serum Aspergillus PCR is highly predictive of 90-day mortality in IA. (a) ROC curve for evaluation of PCR (square) or GM (triangle) as marker of 90-day mortality in IA. Cutoff of 150 copies/mL offers most efficient value and area under curve of 0.837. For GM index cutoff of 2 (most efficient value) is related to small area under curve of 0.546. (b) Patients with initial fungus loads <150 copies/mL (n = 41, 73.2% survival) have more favourable outcomes than other patients (n = 19, 15.8% survival); p <0.0001 by log rank (Mantel-Cox) test, hazard ratio 0.14 (95% CI of ratio 0.05 to 0.34). (c) Patients with initial GMs below 2 (n = 28, 50% survival) appear to have more favourable outcomes than others (n = 12; 25% survival), but difference is not statistically significant (p 0.19 by log rank (Mantel-Cox) test; hazard ratio 0.5, 95% CI of ratio 0.20 to 1.29). CI, confidence interval; GM, galactomannan; IA, invasive aspergillosis; ROC, receiver operating characteristic.
