Project description:ObjectivesMetagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) technology is helpful for the early diagnosis of infective endocarditis, especially culture-negative infective endocarditis, which may guide clinical treatment. The purpose of this study was to compare the presence of culture-negative infective endocarditis pathogens versus culture-positive ones, and whether mNGS test results could influence treatment regimens for patients with routine culture-negative infective endocarditis.MethodsThe present study enrolled patients diagnosed with infective endocarditis and tested for mNGS in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from February 2019 to February 2022 continuously. According to the culture results, patients were divided into culture-negative group (Group CN, n=18) and culture-positive group (Group CP, n=32). The baseline characteristics, clinical data, pathogens, 30 day mortality and treatment regimen of 50 patients with infective endocarditis were recorded and analyzed.ResultsExcept for higher levels of PCT in the Group CN [0.33 (0.16-2.74) ng/ml vs. 0.23 (0.12-0.49) ng/ml, P=0.042], there were no significant differences in the basic clinical data and laboratory examinations between the two groups (all P>0.05). The aortic valve and mitral valve were the most involved valves in patients with infective endocarditis (aortic valve involved: Group CN 10, Group CP 16; mitral valve involved: Group CN 8, Group CP 21; P>0.05) while 9 patients had multiple valves involved (Group CN 2, Group CP 7; P>0.05). The detection rate of non-streptococci infections in the Group CN was significantly higher than that in the Group CP (9/18 vs. 3/32, P=0.004). There was no significant difference in patients with heart failure hospitalization and all-cause death at 30 days after discharge (3 in Group CN vs. 4 in Group CP, P>0.05). It is worth noting that 10 patients with culture-negative infective endocarditis had their antibiotic regimen optimized after the blood mNGS.ConclusionsCulture-negative infective endocarditis should be tested for mNGS for early diagnosis and to guide clinical antibiotic regimen.

Project description:In this report, we describe the first case of infective endocarditis caused by Mycobacterium kansasii in a 45-year-old male patient who presented with a 10-day fever and decompensated cirrhosis. Despite negative results in blood culture and pathology, we employed metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) to analyze the genome sequences of both the host and microbe. The copy number variation (CNV) indicated a high risk of liver disease in the patient, which correlated with biochemical examination findings. Notably, M. kansasii sequences were detected in peripheral blood samples and confirmed through Sanger sequencing. Unfortunately, the patient's condition deteriorated, leading to his demise prior to heart surgery. Nevertheless, we propose that mNGS could be a novel approach for diagnosing M. kansasii infection, particularly in cases where blood culture and pathology results are unavailable. It is important to consider M. kansasii infection as a potential cause of endocarditis and initiate appropriate anti-infection treatment.

Project description:S. aureus has a propensity to cause endocarditis; diabetes mellitus is a frequent underlying comorbitity in patents with S. aureus endocarditis. S. aureus Affymetrix GeneChips were used to compare S. aureus expression properties in cardiac vegatations isolated from diabetic and nondiabetic rats. S. aureus Affymetrix GeneChips were also used to compare the S. aureus expression properties of cardiac vegatations (both diabetic and nondiabetic) in comparsions to planktonic cells. Few differences were observed between the expression properties of S. aureus harvested from diabetic vs. nondiabetic cardiac vegatations. Significant differences were observed between the expression properties of S. aureus harvested from cardiac vegetations in comparison to exponential and/or stationary phase planktonically grown cells.

Project description:BackgroundMetagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) is widely applied in the etiological diagnosis of infectious diseases. However, the clinical practice of mNGS in infective endocarditis (IE) is relatively less studied. This research aimed to assess the etiological diagnostic value of valve mNGS in IE.MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed 49 IE patients who underwent cardiac valve surgery in Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University, Shanghai from 1 June 2018 to 30 November 2020. Among these IE patients, 28 were culture positive and 21 were culture negative. The culture results of the culture-positive IE patients were set as gold standard to assess the sensitivity and specificity of valve mNGS in the etiological diagnosis of IE. We studied the positive detection rate of pathogens by valve mNGS among the culture-negative IE patients. During the same period, we also collected the resected valves of 8 patients with non-infective valvular diseases for mNGS as negative controls.ResultsThe valve mNGS results of the culture-positive IE patients were the exact same as their culture results. Both the sensitivity and specificity of valve mNGS were 100%. The positive detection rate of pathogens by valve mNGS was 100% among the culture-negative IE patients. The stringent mapped reads number of genera (SMRNG), relative abundance of genera, stringent mapped reads number of species (SMRN), relative abundance of species, and coverage rate of valve mNGS results were significantly higher in culture-positive IE participants than in culture-negative IE participants. The valve mNGS results of the 8 participants with non-infective valvular diseases were all negative.ConclusionsValve mNGS is a promising technology for the etiological diagnosis of IE, especially culture-negative IE, and it may be used to guide precise antibiotic treatment after surgery.

S. aureus strain COL was used to establish cardiac vegetations in diabetic and nondiabetic rats or grown in laboratory medium to exponential or stationary phase, total bacterial RNA was isolated, labeled and applied to Affymetrix GeneChips. We sought to determine whether the transcriptional profiles of S. aureus differed in diabetic vs. nondiabetic rats and whether vegetations differed from that of planktonic S. aureus.

Project description:The oral aerotolerant anaerobe Leptotrichia goodfellowii is an unusual cause of endocarditis and is amenable to treatment with β-lactam antibiotics. Because this organism is difficult to identify by conventional methods, molecular detection is a key diagnostic modality. Broad-range 16S rDNA PCR followed by Sanger sequencing constitute the first-line molecular approach, yet poor DNA quality, contaminating DNA, or low template quantity make identification challenging. Here we report a case of culture-negative, aortic and mitral valve endocarditis in a 66-yr-old woman with a history of cardiomyopathy, atrial fibrillation with intracardiac pacer, poor dentition, and recent tooth infection. In this case, 16S rDNA amplicon Sanger sequencing was not sufficient for pathogen identification because of interfering DNA, but deconvolution of the clinical sample using reflexive next-generation amplicon sequencing enabled confident identification of a single pathogenic organism, L. goodfellowii The patient developed a sigmoid colon perforation and died despite additional surgical treatment. Most Leptotrichia endocarditis cases have been subacute and have been successfully treated with antibiotics, with or without valve replacement. This case highlights both an unusual etiologic agent of endocarditis, as well as the rational utilization of advanced molecular diagnostics tools for characterizing serious infections.

Project description:ObjectiveThe present study aimed to prospectively evaluate the role of metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) in the etiological diagnosis of patients with perioperative infective endocarditis (IE).MethodsFrom May 1st, 2019 to December 31st, 2020, a total of 99 patients with IE were enrolled in the present study according to the modified Duke criteria, etiological, and pathological results. 11 non-IE patients undergoing heart valve surgery in the same period were selected as the control group. A blood culture test was performed immediately after admission, and the valves harvested operatively were examined by blood culture and mNGS.ResultsIn the IE group, there were 29 cases (29.3%) with positive blood culture, 16 cases (16.2%) with positive valve culture, and 85 cases (85.9%) with positive valve mNGS. Compared to culture-based detection, mNGS achieved better performance with a sensitivity, specificity, area under the curve (AUC) of 0.859, 0.727, and 0.793, respectively. The combined approach using culture and mNGS further improved the diagnostic accuracy (sensitivity 89.9%, specificity 72.7%, AUC 0.813). Preoperative white blood cell (P = 0.029) and neutrophils (P = 0.046) were identified as independent factors affecting the detection rate of mNGS. In the mNGS-positive group, 95 strains of pathogens were found and 10 cases were identified with mixed infection. There were 72 gram-positive bacteria and 14 gram-negative bacteria. mNGS positive group displayed higher species richness than mNGS negative group with enrichment of Streptococcus sanguis, Streptococcus buccalis, and Streptococcus griseus. Proteobacteria and Actinomycetes were enriched in mNGS negative group. Notably, six patients showed disconcordant results between culture and mNGS. Rothia aeria was identified in the blood culture, valve culture, and valve mNGS in one patient. Bartonella Quintana and Coxiella burnetii, which were fastidious intracellular bacteria, were found in two blood and valve culture-negative cases.ConclusionsmNGS outperformed the conventional culture method and displayed high accuracy in detecting pathogens in IE patients. This study provided support for the use of mNGS in the etiological diagnosis of IE.
