Abstract

AbstractThis study evaluated the determinants of mortality and the T cell immune response in patients with persistent Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia (SAB). This was a prospective cohort study and patients with confirmed SAB were enrolled from 2008 to 2020. We compared clinical, microbiological, and genotypic features between surviving and deceased patients with persistent SAB. The concentrations of cytokines and the proportions of IFN-γ secreting CD4+ T cells were measured serially during the bacteremia period. Of the 1760 patients, 242 had persistent bacteremia (PB), and 49 PB patients died within 30 days. In the multivariate analysis, the APACHE II score and female sex were independently associated with 30 days mortality. The level of IL-10 was significantly increased in the plasma of patients with a high Pitt bacteremia score and those who died within 12 weeks from the index day. The proportion of IFN-γ-secreting CD4+ T cells were the highest just before the positive-to-negative conversion of blood cultures in patients with a low Pitt bacteremia score and those who survived for 12 weeks. The level of IL-10 is correlated with clinical outcomes in PB patients. IFN-γ secreting CD4+ T cells might play a pivotal role in SAB PB.
