    Abstract While suggested, surgery is not always possible as a first-line treatment of Cushing's Disease (CD). In such cases, patients require medical therapy in order to prevent complications resulting from hypercortisolism. Although there has been a wide expansion in pharmacological options in recent years, mitotane was the agent of choice for treating hypercortisolism decades ago. Due to the introduction of other therapies, long-term experience with mitotane remains limited. Here, we report the case of a woman with CD who was treated with mitotane for 37 years. During the treatment period, biochemical and clinical disease control was achieved and the patient had two uncomplicated pregnancies. Drug-related side effects remained moderate and could be controlled by several dose adjustments. Our case highlights the ability of mitotane to allow an effective control of hypercortisolism and to represent a safe treatment option in special situations where CD requires an alternative therapeutic approach. Furthermore, we provide a literature review of the long-term use of mitotane and reported cases of pregnancy in the context of mitotane therapy.

    Abstract Background: The Abbott SARS-CoV-2 IgG Quant II assay and the Roche Elecsys double antigen sandwich (DAgS) immunoassay measure SARS-CoV-2 receptor binding domain (RBD)-specific antibodies in serum samples in different ways. The IgG Quant II assay uses an antigen in combination with a secondary antibody and the DAgS assay uses two antigens. The aim of the study was to investigate whether the assays give comparable results with monoclonal antibodies.
    Material and methods: The immunoassays were tested with the RBD-specific human monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) casirivimab. imdevimab, CR3022, etesevimab and sotrovimab. The mAbs were tested at various concentrations in µg/ml, alone or in combination and the relative light units (RLU) and binding antibody units (BAU)/ml were determined.
    Results: With 1 µg/ml of casirivimab, imdevimab, CR3022 and etesevimab the Abbott IgG II Quant assay yielded between 65 and 158 BAU/ml and the Elecsys assay < 0.4 - 7.1 BAU/ml. In the DAgS assay, the addition of a second and a third mAb increased the BAU/ml values synergistically. With increasing concentrations of the mAb combinations in µg/ml the Abbott IgG Quant II assay showed proportionate and the Elecsys DAgS assay disproportionate increases in BAU/ml. With 1 µg/ml sotrovimab the Abbott assay gave 39 and the Elecsys assay 136 BAU/ml. The DAgS assay showed a high dose hook effect in the µg/ml range.
    Conclusions: The secondary antibody-based and the DAgS-based SARS CoV-2 antibody assays gave very different results with 4 of 5 mAbs. This suggests that the two assays measure different binding characteristics. The ability of antibodies to cross-link multiple antigen-antibody complexes may contribute to the measurement signal in the DAgS assay.

    Abstract Uveitis is a process of intraocular inflammation that may involve different sections of the uveal tract. Apart from systemic or localized immune-mediated diseases, infections are key players in the etiology of uveitis and entail different treatment strategies. Rubella virus (RuV) is a recognized causative agent for the development of Fuchs uveitis, representing a major cause of virus-associated intraocular inflammation. A cohort of 159 patients diagnosed with different forms of uveitis between 2013 and 2019 was subjected to diagnostic antibody testing of the aqueous or vitreous humor. The diagnostic panel included RuV, cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex virus, varicella-zoster virus, and toxoplasmosis. Within this cohort, 38 RuV-associated uveitis (RAU) patients were identified based on a pathologic Goldman-Witmer coefficient indicative of an underlying RuV infection. With a mean age of 45.9 years, the RAU patients were younger than the non-RAU patients (56.3, p < 0.001). The evaluation of clinical parameters revealed a predominance of anterior uveitis and late sequalae such as cataract and glaucoma among the RAU patients. In 15 of the patients a history of prior RuV infections could be confirmed. The study underlines the importance of long-term surveillance of RuV associated diseases that originate from infections before the introduction of RuV vaccination programs.

    Abstract Rhinoviruses (RVs) constitute a substantial public health burden. To evaluate their abundance and genetic diversity in pediatric patients, RV RNA in respiratory samples was assessed using real-time RT-PCR and partial nucleic acid sequencing of viral genomes. Additionally, clinical data were retrieved from patient charts to determine the clinical significance of pediatric RV infections. In total, the respiratory specimens of 776 patients (<18 years), collected from 2013 to 2017, were analyzed. Infections occurred throughout the entire year, with peaks occurring in fall and winter, and showed remarkably high intra- and interseasonal diversity for RV genotypes. RV species were detected in the following frequencies: 49.1% RV-A, 5.9% RV-B, and 43.6% RV-C. RV-C was found to be more frequently associated with asthma (p = 0.04) and bronchiolitis (p < 0.001), while RV-A was more frequently associated with fever (p = 0.001) and pneumonia (p = 0.002). Additionally, 35.3% of the patients had co-infections with other pathogens, which were associated with a longer hospital stay (p < 0.001), need for ventilation (p < 0.001), and pneumonia (p < 0.001). Taken together, this study shows pronounced RV genetic diversity in pediatric patients and indicates differences in RV-associated pathologies, as well as an important role for co-infections.

    Abstract Nosocomial virus infections cause significant morbidity and mortality. Besides influenza viruses, the disease burden of parainfluenza virus type 3 (PIV-3) is comparatively high among hospitalized patients and severe disease courses can occur. PIV-3 showed the highest rates of nosocomial infections of a panel of respiratory viruses. Therefore, a retrospective observational study was conducted among patients with either PIV-3 or influenza viruses, which served as reference pathogen. The aim was to compare the seasonal dynamics and clinical characteristics of nosocomial infections with these highly transmittable viruses. Nosocomial infection occurred in 15.8% (n = 177) of all influenza cases, mainly in the first half of a season. About 24.3% (n = 104) of the PIV-3 cases were nosocomial and occurred mainly in the second half of a season. Both nosocomial rates of influenza and nosocomial rates of PIV-3 varied between the seasons. Community acquired and nosocomial cases differed in underlying medical conditions and immunosuppression. Knowledge of the baseline rates of nosocomial infections could contribute to the implementation of appropriate infection control measures.

    Abstract Rhinoviruses (RVs) constitute a substantial public health burden. To evaluate their abundance and genetic diversity in adult patients, RV RNA in respiratory samples was assessed using real-time RT-PCR and the partial nucleic acid sequencing of viral genomes. Additionally, clinical data were retrieved from patient charts to determine the clinical significance of adult RV infections. In total, the respiratory specimens of 284 adult patients (18-90 years), collected from 2013 to 2017, were analyzed. Infections occurred throughout the entire year, with peaks occurring in fall and winter, and showed a remarkably high intra- and interseasonal diversity of RV genotypes. RV species were detected in the following ratios: 60.9% RV-A 173, 12.7% RV-B, and 26.4% RV-C. No correlations between RV species and underlying comorbidities such as asthma (
