OBJECTIVE: To investigate the potential risk factors for mortality in fungal infection in anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 antibody-positive associated interstitial lung disease (MDA5-ILD).
METHODS: Patients diagnosed with MDA5-ILD from April 2017 to November 2022 were included. The demographic data, laboratory examinations, therapeutic and follow-up information were recorded. Fungal infection diagnosis was established based on a combinations of host factors, clinical features and mycologic evidences. High-dose corticosteroid therapy was defined as the initial corticosteroid doses > 240mg/d. The primary endpoint was mortality. Potential factors for fungal infection occurrence and prognostic factors were analyzed using logistic regression analysis and Cox proportional hazards regression.
RESULTS: In total, 121 patients with MDA5-ILD were included. During follow-up, 41 (33.9%) patients had suffered fungal infection and 39.0% (16/41) of whom had ever received high-dose corticosteroid therapy. The median interval from corticosteroid use to the occurrence of fungal infection was 29 (10-48) days. The mean survival time of patients with fungal infection was 234.32 ± 464.76 days. The mortality in MDA5-ILD with fungal infection was 85.4% (35/41), which was significantly higher than those without (85.4% VS 56.3%, P < 0.001). High-dose corticosteroid therapy (P = 0.049) was independent risk factor for fungal infection occurrence. Decreased serum albumin level (P = 0.024) and high-dose corticosteroid therapy (P = 0.008) were both associated with increased mortality in MDA5-ILD patients with fungal infection.
CONCLUSION: Fungal infection is associated with an increased mortality in MDA5-ILD. The serum albumin level and corticosteroid dose should be taken into consideration when treating MDA5-ILD. Key Points • This study showed fungal infection is associated with an increased mortality in MDA5-ILD. In MDA5-ILD patients with fungal infection, the presence of decreased serum albumin level and high-dose corticosteroid therapy were identified as predictors for mortality.
