Minimally Invasive Tissues Sampling to Evaluate HIV-associated Meningitis in Zambia

赞比亚通过微创组织取样评估艾滋病毒相关脑膜炎

基本信息

项目摘要

There is an urgent need to establish the etiology and improve diagnostics of HIV-associated meningitis in countries like Zambia given the high rates of mortality. A lack of post-mortem studies in low and middle-income countries prevents in-depth studies on tissue from confirmed meningitis patients. Central nervous system (CNS) co-infection frequently occurs in HIV-associated meningitis, but no study has investigated its impact on mortality. Tuberculous meningitis (TBM), one of the most common causes of HIV-associated meningitis, lacks a sensitive cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) lateral flow assay to serve as a simple point of care diagnostic. The best candidate lipid biomarker for a point of care assay has not been established. Best practices and expertise for CSF and brain tissue handling, processing, and analyses are also lacking in many sub- Saharan African countries. Our long-term goal is to establish causes of mortality, optimal diagnostic biomarkers, and laboratory expertise to improve outcomes of HIV-associated meningitis. We will test the following set of specific aims: Aim 1) Establish comprehensive etiologies of HIV-associated meningitis Aim 2) To improve CSF diagnostics for patients with HIV-associated meningitis in resource-limited settings, we will explore more optimal candidate CSF lipid biomarkers to diagnose TBM. Aim 3) Strengthen laboratory services to improve the diagnosis of meningitis The approach is innovative, because it systematically uses post-mortem tissue from an endemic setting to evaluate HIV-associated meningitis. The proposed research is significant because it allows us to establish etiologies and diagnostic biomarkers in HIV-associated meningitis while improving the laboratory capability in Zambia to diagnose CNS infections. These findings will have an important impact on the clinical management of meningitis and provide specific evidence to guide empiric treatment of patients in the future.
迫切需要确定艾滋病毒相关疾病的病原学并提高诊断水平 在像赞比亚这样的国家,脑膜炎的死亡率很高。缺乏尸检研究 在低收入和中等收入国家,防止对确诊脑膜炎的组织进行深入研究 病人。中枢神经系统(CNS)合并感染在HIV相关患者中频繁发生 脑膜炎,但还没有研究调查它对死亡率的影响。结核脑膜炎(TBM), HIV相关性脑膜炎最常见的原因之一,缺乏敏感的脑脊液 脑脊液(CSF)侧向血流分析可作为简单的诊断点。最好的候选人 用于护理点检测的脂质生物标记物尚未建立。最佳做法和专业知识 对于脑脊液和脑组织的处理、处理和分析也缺乏许多子 撒哈拉非洲国家。我们的长期目标是确定死亡原因,最佳 诊断生物标记物和实验室专业知识,以改善艾滋病毒相关患者的预后 脑膜炎。我们将测试以下一套具体目标: 目的1)建立艾滋病毒相关性脑膜炎的综合病因 目的2)提高艾滋病病毒相关性脑膜炎患者的脑脊液诊断水平 在资源有限的情况下,我们将探索更理想的候选脑脊液脂质生物标记物 诊断TBM。 目的3)加强实验室服务,提高脑膜炎诊断水平 这种方法是创新的,因为它系统地使用地方性疾病的死后组织。 设置以评估艾滋病毒相关性脑膜炎。这项拟议的研究意义重大,因为它 使我们能够确定HIV相关性脑膜炎的病因学和诊断生物标志物 提高赞比亚诊断中枢神经系统感染的实验室能力。这些发现将会有 对脑膜炎的临床处理有重要影响,并提供具体证据 指导今后患者的经验性治疗。
