Abstract
Stomatitis, including oral mucositis and ulcerations induced by HSV-reactivation are major sources of morbidity after high-dose (HD) chemotherapy and subsequent autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (SCT). While increased synthesis of pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin-1 (IL-1) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α)-as well as reactivation of viral infections have frequently been observed in this setting, data on their association with the severity of mucositis is limited. Fifteen patients with Hodgkin's or non-Hodgkin's lymphoma receiving HD conditioning chemotherapy and autologous SCT were assessed with respect to oral pain and severity of stomatitis on day -6, 0, +5 to +7, +13 to +15, and +100. On the same dates, IL-1 and TNF-α were quantified in saliva and screening for a wide range of viral pathogens was carried out by cell culture and PCR and complemented by serological analyses. t Tests were used to assess potential associations between these variables. All but one patient had a positive HSV IgG titer at baseline. Reactivation as confirmed by HSV PCR was observed in seven patients (50%). There was a significant association between the presence of HSV in saliva samples and severity of stomatitis...Continue Reading
