BACKGROUND: Central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs) pose a
significant challenge in the lives of patients with intestinal failure (IF). We
hypothesized that plasma immunoglobulins against flagellin (FLiC) and
lipopolysaccharide (LPS) would be able to differentiate CLABSIs from nonbacterial
febrile episodes and that levels would increase with infection and decline
following appropriate antibiotic treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Patients with
IF, due to short bowel syndrome, between the ages of 3 months and 4 years of age,
were recruited at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center. Anti-FLiC and
anti-LPS plasma antibody levels were measured in 13 children with IF at baseline,
during febrile events, and also following treatment with antibiotics. These were
also measured in 11 healthy children without IF who were recruited as controls.
RESULTS: Plasma anti-FLiC IgA levels increased during febrile episodes in all
patients with IF (baseline mean of 1.10 vs febrile episode mean of 1.32 optical
density units, respectively; P = .046). Neither plasma anti-FLiC nor anti-LPS IgA
or IgG levels distinguished CLABSI from nonbacterial febrile episodes compared
with baseline levels. Compared with controls, patients with IF had significantly
higher plasma levels of anti-FLiC and anti-LPS IgA at baseline. CONCLUSION:
Plasma anti-FLiC IgA antibody levels rise during febrile episodes but do not
differentiate between nonbacterial febrile illnesses and CLABSIs in pediatric IF.
However, the upregulation of these antibodies in IF suggests the baseline
systemic presence of Gram-negative bacterial products.
