To describe the clinical characteristics and outcome of Abiotrophia and Granulicatella infective endocarditis and compare them with Viridans group streptococci infective endocarditis.
All patients in the International Collaboration on Endocarditis (ICE) - prospective cohort study (PCS) and the ICE-PLUS cohort were included (n = 8112). Data from patients with definitive or possible IE due to Abiotrophia species, Granulicatella species and Viridans group streptococci was analyzed. A propensity score (PS) analysis comparing the ABI/GRA-IE and VGS-IE groups according to a 1:2 ratio was performed.
Forty-eight (0.64%) cases of ABI/GRA-IE and 1,292 (17.2%) VGS-IE were included in the analysis. The median age of patients with ABI/GRA-IE was lower than VGS-IE (48.1 years vs. 57.9 years; p = 0.001). Clinical features and the rate of in-hospital surgery was similar between ABI/GRA-IE and VGS-IE (52.1% vs. 45.4%; p = 0.366). Unadjusted in-hospital death was lower in ABI/GRA-IE than VGS-IE (2.1% vs. 8.8%; p = 0.003), and cumulative six-month mortality was lower in ABI/GRA-IE than VGS-IE (2.1% vs. 11.9%; p<0.001). After PS analysis, in-hospital mortality was similar in both groups, but six-month mortality was lower in the ABI/GRA IE group (2.1% vs. 10.4%; p = 0.029).
Patients with ABI/GRA-IE were younger, had similar clinical features and rates of surgery and better prognosis than VGS-IE.
描述嗜养颗粒菌和金氏金菌感染性心内膜炎的临床特征和结局,并将其与草绿色链球菌感染性心内膜炎进行比较。
纳入国际心内膜炎协作研究(ICE)前瞻性队列研究(PCS)和 ICE-PLUS 队列中的所有患者(n=8112)。分析了明确或可能由嗜养颗粒菌、金氏金菌和草绿色链球菌所致感染性心内膜炎患者的数据。根据 1:2 的比例,采用倾向评分(PS)分析比较 ABI/GRA-IE 和 VGS-IE 两组。
48 例(0.64%)ABI/GRA-IE 和 1292 例(17.2%)VGS-IE 纳入分析。ABI/GRA-IE 患者的中位年龄低于 VGS-IE(48.1 岁 vs. 57.9 岁;p=0.001)。ABI/GRA-IE 和 VGS-IE 两组的临床特征和住院期间手术率相似(52.1% vs. 45.4%;p=0.366)。未校正的住院死亡率 ABI/GRA-IE 低于 VGS-IE(2.1% vs. 8.8%;p=0.003),ABI/GRA-IE 组的 6 个月累积死亡率也低于 VGS-IE(2.1% vs. 11.9%;p<0.001)。在 PS 分析后,两组的住院死亡率相似,但 ABI/GRA-IE 组的 6 个月死亡率较低(2.1% vs. 10.4%;p=0.029)。
ABI/GRA-IE 患者较年轻,临床特征和手术率相似,但预后更好。
