NHANES III equations enhance early detection and mortality prediction of bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome after hematopoietic SCT.

ABSTRACT: Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) is a serious complication of chronic GVHD (cGVHD) following HSCT (hematopoietic SCT). The clinical diagnosis of BOS is based on pulmonary function test (PFT) abnormalities including: FEV1<75% predicted and obstructive FEV1/VC ratio, calculated using reference equations. We sought to determine if the frequency of clinical diagnoses and severity of BOS would be altered by using the recommended NHANES III vs older equations (Morris/Goldman/Bates, MGB) in 166 cGVHD patients, median age 48 (range: 12-67). We found that NHANES III equations significantly increased the prevalence of BOS, with an additional 11% (18/166) meeting diagnostic criteria by revealing low FEV1 (<75%) (P<0.0001), and six additional patients by obstructive ratio (vs MBG). Collectively, this led to an increase of BOS incidence from 17 (29/166) to 29% (41/166). For patients with severe BOS, (FEV1<35%), NHANES III equations correctly predicted death 71.4% vs 50% using MGB. In conclusion, the use of NHANES III equations markedly increases the proportion of cases meeting diagnostic criteria for BOS and improves prediction of survival.

Project description:BackgroundBronchiolitis obliterans (BO) is one of the most common late non-infectious pulmonary complications after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Lung transplantation (LT) is the only cure for patients with end-stage BO, but the overall efficacy is rarely reported. Our study aims to conclude and elucidate the clinical experience of our single center and provide a reference for the current selection of treatment.MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the medical records of six patients with post-HSCT BO who received LT in our center from 2015 to 2019. The collected information included demographic data, surgery-related conditions, and postoperative follow-up data, which covered blood tests, infection status assessment, lung function assessment, anesthesia assessment, function assessment of other organs and so on. All patients were regularly followed up after discharge, which in the first year, was performed every 3 months. Over the next 2 years, patients were assessed every 6 months, and after 3 years, the frequency was once annually.ResultsThe mean age of patients at LT time was 28±13 years, with an interval of 72±48 months from HSCT. All patients developed hypercapnia with an average carbon dioxide partial pressure (pCO2) of 71.1±20.8 mmHg. Preoperative pulmonary function tests showed the mean actual forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) was 16.7%±5.9% of the predicted value in four patients. After assessment, four patients adopted sequential bilateral LT and two adopted right-sided LT. Due to hemodynamic instability, five patients adopted intraoperative assistance of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). One patient died of septic shock 9 days after surgery, and the other five survived healthy for 53±23 months. The actual value of FEV1 at 3 months postoperatively accounted for 57.9%±15.3% of the predicted value. No patients had recurrence of BO.ConclusionsLT may be a treatment worthy of consideration in patients with post-HSCT end-stage BO because it can improve lung function, quality of life and prolong survival of these selected patients.
