    Abstract: Invasive bacterial infection (IBI) causes a significant burden in infants. In this study, we analyzed changes in epidemiology of IBI among infants in Korea. Methods: A retrospective multicenter-based surveillance for IBIs in infants 〈 3 months of age was performed during 2006–2020. Cases were classified as an early-onset disease (EOD) (0–6 days) or late-onset disease (LOD) (7–89 days). The temporal trend change in proportion of pathogens was analyzed. Results: Among 1545 cases, the median age was 28 days (IQR: 12, 53) and EOD accounted for 17.7%. Among pathogens, S. agalactiae (40.4%), E. coli (38.5%), and S. aureus (17.8%) were the most common and attributed for 96.7%. Among EOD (n = 274), S. agalactiae (45.6%), S. aureus (31.4%), E. coli (17.2%) and L. monocytogenes (2.9%) were most common. Among LOD (n = 1274), E. coli (43.1%), S. agalactiae (39.3%), S. aureus (14.9%) and S. pneumoniae (1.3%) were most common. In the trend analysis, the proportion of S. aureus (r s = −0.850, P 〈 0.01) decreased significantly, while that of S. agalactiae increased (r s = 0.781, P 〈 0.01). Conclusion: During 2006–2020, among IBI in infants 〈 3 months of age, S. agalactiae, E. coli, and S. aureus were most common and an increasing trend of S. agalactiae was observed.

    Abstract: Invasive bacterial infection (IBI) remains a major burden of mortality and morbidity in children. As coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) emerged, stringent nonpharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) were applied worldwide. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of NPIs on pediatric IBI in Korea. Methods: From January 2018 to December 2020, surveillance for pediatric IBIs caused by 9 pathogens ( S. pneumoniae , H. influenzae , N. meningitidis , S. agalactiae , S. pyogenes , S. aureus , Salmonella species, L. monocytogenes and E. coli ) was performed at 22 hospitals throughout Korea. Annual incidence rates were compared before and after the COVID-19 pandemic. Results: A total of 651 cases were identified and the annual incidence was 194.0 cases per 100,000 in-patients in 2018, 170.0 in 2019 and 172.4 in 2020. Most common pathogen by age group was S. agalactiae in infants 〈 3 months (n = 129, 46.7%), S. aureus in 3 to 〈 24 months (n = 35, 37.2%), Salmonella spp. in 24 to 〈 60 months (n = 24, 34.8%) and S. aureus in children ≥ 5 years (n = 128, 60.7%). Compared with 2018 to 2019, the incidence rate in 2020 decreased by 57% for invasive pneumococcal disease (26.6 vs. 11.5 per 100,000 in-patients, P = 0.014) and 59% for Salmonella spp. infection (22.8 vs. 9.4 per 100,000 in-patients, P = 0.018). In contrast, no significant changes were observed in invasive infections due to S. aureus , S. agalactiae and E. coli . Conclusions: The NPIs implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic reduced invasive diseases caused by S. pneumoniae and Salmonella spp. but not S. aureus , S. agalactiae and E. coli in children.

    Abstract: Sepsis within the first 3 days of life remains a leading cause of neonatal mortality and morbidity. However, few studies have addressed the epidemiology of sepsis in late preterm and term neonates, particularly in Asia. We aimed to estimate the epidemiology of early-onset sepsis (EOS) in neonates born at ≥35 0/7 weeks’ gestation in Korea. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted in neonates with proven EOS born at ≥35 0/7 weeks’ gestation from 2009 to 2018 at seven university hospitals. EOS was defined as identifying bacteria from a blood culture within 72 hours after birth. Results: A total of 51 neonates (0.36/1,000 live births) with EOS were identified. The median duration from birth to the first positive blood culture collection was 17 hours (range, 0.2–63.9). Among the 51 neonates, 32 (63%) patients were born by vaginal delivery. The median Apgar score was 8 (range, 2–9) at 1 minute and 9 (range, 4–10) at 5 minutes. The most common pathogen was group B Streptococcus (n = 21; 41.2%), followed by coagulase-negative staphylococci (n = 7; 13.7%) and Staphylococcus aureus (n = 5, 9.8%). Forty-six (90.2%) neonates were treated with antibiotics on the first day of symptom onset, and 34 (73.9%) neonates received susceptible antibiotics. The overall 14-day case-fatality rate was 11.8%. Conclusion: This is the first multicenter study on the epidemiology of proven EOS in neonates born at ≥35 0/7 weeks’ gestation and found that group B Streptococcus was the most common pathogen in Korea.

    Abstract: ELANE -related neutropenia includes severe congenital neutropenia and cyclic neutropenia. Both are clinically characterized by recurrent fever, skin and oropharyngeal inflammation. We report a novel mutation in ELANE in a 20-year-old man with a history of self-limiting febrile episodes and neutropenia with a cyclic pattern since 7 years of age. Direct sequencing analysis of ELANE revealed he was heterozygous for a novel missense mutation (p.Ala57Asp). The Ala57 residue is a mutation hotspot, and all previously reported missense mutations (Ala57Ser/Thr/Val) were observed in severe congenital neutropenia cases. Thus, the present case demonstrates a phenotypic variability in ELANE -related neutropenia from mutated Ala57.

    Abstract: The extent to which cognitive function differs between patients who receive implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) therapy and patients with heart failure (HF) who do not receive ICD therapy remains to be elucidated. Objectives The aim of this study was to compare the cognitive function between patients with primary or secondary ICDs and patients with HF without an ICD. Methods This descriptive, comparative study included 116 patients who received ICDs and 74 patients with HF who did not receive ICDs. Patients underwent neuropsychological assessment for general cognition, memory, and executive function. Results Immediate recall memory loss (18.9%) occurred more often in patients with HF without an ICD than in patients with primary (3.1%) and secondary (7.1%) ICDs ( P = .018). After adjusting for age and education, delayed recall memory of patients with HF without ICDs was significantly worse than that of patients with primary ICDs (4.0 vs 6.5; P 〈 .001), whereas delayed recall memory of patients with primary ICDs was better than that of patients with secondary ICDs (6.0 vs 6.5; P = .006). Executive function of patients with HF without ICDs was significantly worse than that of patients with primary (35 vs 58 seconds; P 〈 .001) and secondary (28 vs 58 seconds; P = .0012) ICDs. Conclusions Patients with ICDs, regardless of primary or secondary indication, had less impairment of memory and executive function than patients with HF without ICDs, implying that ICD therapy did not interfere with cognitive performance. Cognitive screening as a part of routine care could be helpful for identifying impairment and implementing early cognitive training, especially in patients with HF.

    Abstract: Individual variability in nigrostriatal dopaminergic denervation is an important factor underlying clinical heterogeneity in Parkinson disease (PD). This study aimed to explore whether the pattern of striatal dopamine depletion was associated with white matter (WM) networks in PD. Methods A total of 240 newly diagnosed patients with PD who underwent 18 F-FP-CIT PET scans and brain diffusion tensor imaging at initial assessment were enrolled in this study. We measured 18 F-FP-CIT tracer uptake as an indirect marker for striatal dopamine depletion. Factor analysis–derived striatal dopamine loss patterns were estimated in each patient to calculate the composite scores of 4 striatal subregion factors ( caudate , more-affected and less-affected sensorimotor striata , and anterior putamen ) based on the availability of striatal dopamine transporter. The WM structural networks that were correlated with the composite scores of each striatal subregion factor were identified using a network-based statistical analysis. Results A higher composite score of caudate (i.e., relatively preserved dopaminergic innervation in the caudate) was associated with a strong structural connectivity in a single subnetwork comprising the left caudate and left frontal gyri. Selective dopamine loss in the caudate was associated with strong connectivity in the structural subnetwork whose hub nodes were bilateral thalami and left insula, which were connected to the anterior cingulum. However, no subnetworks were correlated with the composite scores of other striatal subregion factors. The connectivity strength of the network with a positive correlation with the composite score of caudate affected the frontal/executive function either directly or indirectly through the mediation of dopamine depletion in the caudate. Conclusions Our findings indicate that different patterns of striatal dopamine depletion are closely associated with WM structural alterations, which may contribute to heterogeneous cognitive profiles in individuals with PD.

    Abstract: To investigate the association between enlarged perivascular spaces (PVS) in the basal ganglia (BG-PVS) and long-term motor outcomes in Parkinson disease (PD). Methods We reviewed the medical records of 248 patients with drug-naive early-stage PD (follow-up 〉 3 years, mean age 67.44 ± 8.46 years, 130 female) who underwent brain MRI and dopamine transporter (DAT) scans at initial assessment. The number of baseline enlarged BG-PVS was counted on axial T2-weighted images. Then, patients were divided into 2 groups: a PD group with a low number (0–10) of enlarged PVS (PD-EPVS−; n = 156) and a PD group with a high number ( 〉 10) of enlarged PVS (PD-EPVS+; n = 92). We used Cox regression models to compare the levodopa-induced dyskinesia (LID)–, wearing-off–, and freezing of gait (FOG)–free times between groups. We also compared longitudinal increases in levodopa-equivalent dose per body weight between groups using a linear mixed model. Results Patients in the PD-EPVS+ group were older (72.28 ± 6.07 years) and had greater small vessel disease burden than those in the PD-EPVS− group (64.58 ± 8.38 years). The PD-EPVS+ group exhibited more severely decreased DAT availability in all striatal subregions except the ventral striatum. The risk of FOG was higher in the PD-EPVS+ group, but the risk of LID or wearing-off was comparable between groups. The PD-EPVS+ group required higher doses of dopaminergic medications for effective symptom control compared to the PD-EPVS− group. Conclusion This study suggests that baseline enlarged BG-PVS can be an indicator of the progression of motor disability in PD.

    Abstract: Several clinical and neuroimaging biomarkers have been proposed to identify individuals with Parkinson disease (PD) who are at risk for ongoing cognitive decline. This study aimed to explore whether white matter (WM) connectivity disruption is associated with dementia conversion in patients with newly diagnosed PD with mild cognitive impairment (PD-MCI). Methods Seventy-five patients with drug-naive PD-MCI who underwent serial cognitive assessments during the follow-up period ( 〉 5 years) were enrolled for the neuroimaging analyses. The patients were classified into either the PD with dementia (PDD) high-risk group (PDD-H, n = 38) or low-risk group (PDD-L, n = 37), depending on whether they converted to dementia within 5 years of PD diagnosis. We conducted degree-based statistic analyses based on a graph-theoretical concept to identify the subnetworks whose WM connectivity was disrupted in the PDD-H group compared with the PDD-L group. Results The PDD-H group showed poorer cognitive performance on frontal/executive, visual memory/visuospatial, and attention/working memory/language function than the PDD-L group at baseline assessment. The PDD-H group exhibited more severely disrupted WM connectivity in both frontal and posterior cortical regions with 8 hub nodes in the degree-based statistic analysis. The strength of structural connectivity within the identified subnetworks was correlated with the composite scores of frontal/executive function domain (γ = 0.393) and the risk score of PDD conversion within 5 years (γ = −0.480). Discussion This study demonstrated that disrupted WM connectivity in frontal and posterior cortical regions, which correlated with frontal/executive dysfunction, is associated with early dementia conversion in PD-MCI. Classification of Evidence This study provides Class II evidence that disrupted WM connectivity in frontal and posterior cortical regions is associated with early dementia conversion in PD-MCI.
