摘要

OBJECTIVES: Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are susceptible to opportunistic infections. To examine the clinical manifestations of non-tuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infections with those of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) infections in SLE patients. METHODS: Medical records of a cohort of 725 SLE patients were reviewed for previous NTM infections. Demographic characteristics, predisposing factors and clinical outcomes were compared with patients who had previous MTB infections (n = 39). RESULTS: Eleven (nine female and two male) cases were identified (prevalence 1.5%). The mean +/- S.D. age at the time of infection was 42.8 +/- 13.9 yrs, 9.3 +/- 5.8 yrs after the onset of SLE. The mean +/- S.D. time taken from onset of symptoms to the diagnosis of NTM infection was 5.7 +/- 7.2 months. Sites of involvement included skin and soft tissue (n = 8), chest (n = 2) and disseminated infection (n = 1). NTM infections were more likely to involve extrapulmonary sites (P = 0.006), presented in patients with longer lupus disease duration (P < 0.001), occurred in older patients (P < 0.001) and in those who had a higher cumulative dose of prednisolone (P = 0.01) than MTB infections. Using a stepwise logistic regression, disease duration was found to be the only independent predictive factor (P = 0.005) for NTM infections. Ten (25.6%) patients with MTB infections but none of the patients with NTM infections presented concomitantly at the onset of SLE (P = 0.09). There were no differences in the recurrence rate (P = 0.64) and frequency of disseminated infections (P = 0.40) between NTM and MTB infections. CONCLUSIONS: NTM infections tended to develop in SLE patients later in their disease course than MTB infections. A high index of suspicion is required for its diagnosis.

SLE发作后的感染年龄为42.8 +/- 13.9岁,9.3 +/- 5.8岁。平均值+/- S.D.从症状发作到诊断NTM所花费的时间为5.7 +/- 7.2个月。受累部位包括皮肤和软组织(n = 8),胸部(n = 2)和弥漫性感染(n = 1)。 NTM感染更可能涉及肺外部位(P = 0.006),在狼疮病持续时间较长(P <0.001),老年患者(P <0.001)和泼尼松龙的累积剂量较高的患者中出现(P = 0.006)(P P = 0.01)比MTB感染高。使用逐步逻辑回归,发现疾病持续时间是NTM感染的唯一独立预测因素(P = 0.005)。十名(25.6%)的MTB感染患者,但NTM感染的患者均未在SLE发作时同时出现(P = 0.09)。 NTM和MTB感染的复发率(P = 0.64)和传播感染的频率(P = 0.40)没有差异。结论:SLE患者的NTM感染病程较MTB感染晚。诊断需要高度怀疑。
