Jornal Brasileiro De Nefrologia, 2026
Introduction: Cytomegalovirus (CMV) remains a significant challenge in kidney transplantation. Despite prophylactic and preemptive antiviral strategies, clinical practices vary widely. This study assessed CMV diagnostic and monitoring practices in Brazilian kidney transplant centers, focusing on access to diagnostic tools, therapeutic thresholds, and logistical barriers. Methods: A nationwide electronic survey was conducted between August and October 2024, targeting all kidney transplant programs (TP) registered with the Brazilian Society of Organ Transplantation (ABTO). Results: A total of 35 TP (20.6% response rate) participated, representing 62% of kidney transplants performed in Brazil in 2023. While most centers had CMV management protocols (94.3%), significant variability was observed in the initiation of preemptive therapy (PET). Among high-risk patients (D+/R−), 41.9% followed predefined thresholds. Specific cut-off values were applied in 71.0% of R+ patients and in 45.2% of the low-risk group (D−/R−). Quantitative PCR was the primary diagnostic method (97.1%), with whole blood (60%) and plasma (34.3%) as preferred sample types. A significant proportion of CMV TP (60%) relied on outsourced laboratories for CMV diagnostics, with 82.4% experiencing turnaround times exceeding three days for results. Only 8.6% TP had access to molecular testing for CMV-resistant strains. Conclusion: This survey reveals substantial variability in CMV diagnosis and management among Brazilian kidney transplant centers, with limited diagnostic access and delays due to reliance on outsourced laboratories. Expanding diagnostic capacity and standardizing guidelines are essential to improving patient outcomes.

Open Forum Infectious Diseases, 2026
Background Data on clinical characteristics and prognosis of chronic pulmonary aspergillosis (CPA) in resource-limited, high tuberculosis (TB) burden settings, especially in Brazil, remain scarce. Methods This multicenter retrospective study evaluated all CPA cases diagnosed between 2012 and 2018 across eight centers in Brazil, examining clinical presentation, diagnosis, treatment, mortality, and factors associated with death, including differences related to pulmonary TB. To identify independent predictors of mortality, we conducted multivariate Cox regression. One-year mortality was analyzed using Kaplan–Meier survival curves. Results A total of 191 CPA cases were diagnosed, with a median age of 50 years (IQR 40–59) and 62% were male. TB was the most frequent predisposing condition (n = 138, 72%). Most patients (80%) received antifungal therapy, primarily itraconazole (n = 140, 73%). Surgery was performed in 34% of cases. According to Kaplan–Meier analysis, the cumulative mortality at 12 months was 6%. Compared to survivors, nonsurvivors had significantly lower rates of TB (52% vs 77%, P = .019) and higher rates of malignancies (13% vs 3%, P = .033). In multivariate analysis, only TB was independently associated with lower mortality (HR 0.413, 95% CI: .179–.954, P = .038). The TB group showed more hemoptysis (P = .008) and greater radiological involvement, suggesting delayed diagnosis. Conclusions In Brazil, the mortality of CPA was lower compared with that reported in previous studies, particularly among patients with TB. In TB-endemic, resource-limited settings, overlapping clinical and radiological features may delay diagnosis and antifungal treatment.

Transplant Infectious Disease, 2025
Background Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection remains among the leading complications after solid organ transplantation (SOT). Large international surveys mainly focused on high‐income countries, detected considerable variability in the management of this infection after SOT. Limited data are available from resource‐limited settings. Methods A questionnaire‐based cross‐sectional study was performed. All transplant programs (TP) registered at the Brazilian Organ Transplantation Society (ABTO) were invited to participate. Results Sixty‐one TP participated in the study. Of these, 59 (97%) reported using at least 1 preventive strategy (prophylaxis or preemptive therapy [PET]). Prophylaxis was reported by only 39 (64%). PET was used by 52 (85%), predominantly for R+ recipients ( n = 42/61; 70%). CMV monitoring was performed weekly in only 22 of 52 (42%) TP. This was significantly more common in TP reporting turnaround times ≤72 h for quantitative nuclear acid amplification tests ( p < 0.001). Intravenous (IV) ganciclovir was the predominant drug chosen for prophylaxis (21/39 TP; 54%) and for PET (44/52 TP; 77%). Lack of regular access to valganciclovir was significantly associated with the choice of IV ganciclovir for prophylaxis and PET ( p = 0.002 for both comparisons). Only 8 (13%) TP had access to molecular diagnostic tests for ganciclovir resistance, and 14 (23%) had access to effective therapy for highly resistant infections. Conclusion These results suggest that strategies to improve the management of CMV after SOT in such a resource‐limited setting are needed and should include not only targeted educational programs but also initiatives to tackle economic and structural barriers. image

Neuroinvasive chikungunya in a liver transplant recipient

Transplant Infectious Disease, 2021
The influence of chronic immunosuppression on the course of chikungunya virus (CHIKV) infection in recipients of solid organ transplantation (SOT) is still unsettled. Scarce data suggest that the course of CHIKV infection is generally benign in this population. In addition, the occurrence of severe atypical manifestations associated with CHIKV has not been well documented among SOT recipients. In this report, we describe a 64‐year‐old male liver transplant recipient who was admitted with fever, headache, arthralgia, left palpebral ptosis, mydriasis, and right hemiparesis. Cranial magnetic resonance imaging did not reveal any alteration suggestive of acute infection. Nevertheless, CHIKV was detected in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) with a real‐time reverse transcriptase assay. Other PCR assays carried out in CSF were negative for HSV‐1 and 2, cytomegalovirus, dengue virus (DENV), and Zika virus (ZIKV). CHIKV viremia was also detected while PCR assays for ZIKV and DENV in the blood were negative. ZIKV viruria was simultaneously present in this case. All neurologic manifestations waned within 2 weeks after the onset. This report shows that chikungunya must be considered in the differential diagnosis of acute neurologic disease in SOT recipients who live in or have recently traveled to endemic areas.
