Is the home nucleic acid quick test accurate or not?

Original pediatric doctor Yan, pediatric doctor Yan

Since the second half of 2023, Meituan and JD.COM Platform have carried out rapid home nucleic acid detection in some cities. At present, the testing items are as follows:

There are always parents who ask me: Is the quick test of nucleic acid at home accurate or not?

In fact, doctors and colleagues and I often discuss this issue. Our feeling is that sometimes it is accurate and sometimes it is not.

Through nearly half a year’s contact, we found that the rapid detection of nucleic acid at home is helpful to analyze the cause of upper respiratory tract infection in the community. In particular, the newly added pertussis test is convenient for early investigation and is really useful.

However, the detection rate of individual pathogens is doubtful, and some testing items seem unnecessary.

Here are two valuable cases. These two children not only did a quick home nucleic acid test, but also measured a very accurate tNGS (targeting high-throughput sequencing), which can be compared and analyzed.

As always, thank parents for their consent before sharing.

01

Case 1

A 7-year-old child saw a doctor at 12 noon on June 21st. The medical history is as follows:

When I saw a doctor, I had been coughing for 5 days. Because his deskmate was recently diagnosed with whooping cough, according to the clinical diagnosis standard B of CDC in the United States, if other diseases are excluded, whooping cough can be clinically diagnosed without laboratory tests.

Considering the 14-day course of antibiotic treatment and whether the family members take post-exposure prevention, after discussion with parents, it was decided that the presence of pertussis should be determined by rapid examination in JD.COM, and the drug-resistant pertussis infection should be evaluated by targeted sequencing. The specific plan is as follows:

At 15: 16 (more than 2 hours after sampling), the quick test results show that:

At noon on June 22nd (the second day after seeing a doctor), targeted sequencing showed that:

Through this case, we can draw the following conclusions:

1. The Bordetella pertussis detected this time is accurate (confirmed by sequencing).

2. The Streptococcus pneumoniae strain detected this time is false positive (negated by sequencing).

Why is there a false positive?

It is speculated that the primer design for rapid detection of Streptococcus pneumoniae in laboratory has defects and insufficient specificity, and Streptococcus angina with similar nucleic acid sequence is mistaken for Streptococcus pneumoniae.

3. The Haemophilus influenzae detected this time is accurate (confirmed by sequencing).

4. Targeted sequencing can identify whether there is drug resistance gene mutation in Bordetella pertussis, which is convenient for drug selection.

Reminder again: We must seize the opportunity to treat pertussis, because at present, drug-resistant pertussis is the main epidemic in China, so compound sulfamethoxazole is recommended as the first choice for empirical treatment.

02

Case 2

3 years and 7 months, I saw a doctor on July 13th (Day 2), and my medical history is as follows:

Initial diagnosis of acute laryngitis (mild). Because the symptoms suggest viral infection (especially parainfluenza virus), no pathogenic test was made at the first diagnosis.

The children returned home with high fever that day, and the parents made a quick inspection of the US delegation. The results are as follows:

You see, the US Mission has detected three kinds of "conditional pathogens" quickly, but there is no parainfluenza virus detection project, which makes parents feel strange.

In the next few days, the progress of this child’s illness is worrying.

On the 14th (Day 3), repeated high fever, the highest is 40.1℃.

On the 15th (Day 4), the highest temperature was 40.7℃. I went back to the clinic for targeted sequencing.

On the 16th (Day 5), sequencing showed that:

On the 16th (Day 5), the child developed yellow tears. His body temperature was 39.7℃ during the day and nearly 40.1℃ at 10 pm. My parents contacted me.

Combined with the sequencing results and the change of symptoms, I considered the virus combined with bacterial infection, and started amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium that night.

On the morning of the 17th (Day 6), the body temperature gradually dropped and pus increased. My temperature has been normal since the afternoon of the 17th.

Through this case, we can draw the following conclusions:

1. The Streptococcus pneumoniae strain detected this time is false positive (negated by sequencing).

2. The Pseudomonas aeruginosa detected this time is false positive (negated by sequencing).

3. The Haemophilus influenzae detected this time is accurate (confirmed by sequencing).

4. The parainfluenza virus detected by sequencing is the pathogenic pathogen that causes the initial symptoms of children, but the detection project has been cancelled by Meituan (which has been kept by JD.COM Quick Inspection so far).

5. The sequencing results are helpful for judging the virus combined with bacterial infection, and this result is also the basis for my difficult decision to start antibiotic treatment at 11 o’clock on the 16th.

03

Is home nucleic acid testing accurate or not?

Any new thing can’t be perfect, there will always be some problems that need to be constantly improved and improved.

Since it is an improvement, it should be improved as possible.

For example, it is very good to add pertussis and group A streptococcus detection items to the home quick inspection.

However, the US Mission cancelled the parainfluenza virus detection and increased the detection of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Klebsiella pneumoniae with low value, which is puzzling.

Pathogen detection is very important for the management of some infectious diseases, so we should have higher requirements, which is not too much.

If the test results are inaccurate, some pathogens will always be false positive, which will not only lead to patients’ (or their families’) worries, but also lead to wrong intervention, increase the doctor’s interpretation cost and waste the doctor’s time.

The two cases I cited earlier are just cases, which are not convincing enough. Whether home nucleic acid is accurate or not depends on a large sample survey.

We can collect enough home nucleic acid and targeted sequencing results, and then analyze the difference of pathogen positive rate; If a patient has done home nucleic acid and targeted sequencing at the same time, the control analysis is more valuable.

Ben WeChat official account plans to write a series of articles to discuss how to manage common upper respiratory tract infectious diseases by home quick check-up.

Here, I especially hope that the testing organization will make this product better. For example, quality control personnel should carefully analyze the test data, find out the reasons for the high detection rate of pathogens such as Streptococcus pneumoniae, resume the detection of parainfluenza virus, and cancel some unnecessary tests.

In order to make a more rigorous evaluation, we collect home nucleic acid test results from readers, and the requirements are as follows:

1. Provide a complete test report screenshot. If there are other pathogen detection reports (such as targeted sequencing or antibody detection results), they can also be provided together. Please cover the patient’s name.

2. Sampling sites (such as throat swab and nasopharyngeal swab) can be provided.

3. Can inform the patient’s age, main symptoms (such as fever, cough, runny nose) and city.

Country Garden was petitioned by creditors for liquidation, involving an outstanding loan of HK$ 1.6 billion.

On February 28,Country GardenAn inside story was announced on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, that is, Ever Credit Limited Company filed a lawsuit against the Hong Kong High Court yesterday (February 27th).Country GardenThe liquidation petition. The contents of the petition are related to the petitioner (lender) andCountry GardenUnpaid term loans with principal of about HK$ 1.6 billion and accrued interest between (borrowers).

According to section 182 of the winding-up ordinance, ifCountry GardenThe final liquidation by petition is made on or after the commencement date without the approval order of the High Court.Country GardenThe transfer of shares will be invalid.

In this regard,Country GardenIt is said that the company will strongly oppose the petition. The submission of the petition does not mean that the petitioner can successfully liquidate the company. On the date of the announcement, the Hong Kong High Court did not issue a liquidation order to liquidate it. The company will seek legal advice and take all necessary actions to actively and properly defend it with the consulting team.

According to the announcement, the Hong Kong High Court has set May 17, 2024 as the date for the first hearing of the petition.

Affected by this message,Country GardenOn the 28th, the Hong Kong stock market opened sharply, and once fell more than 12% in intraday trading. As of midday, its share price fell to HK$ 0.63 per share, with a market value of HK$ 17.633 billion.

According to the inquiry, Ever Credit Limited (Forever Credit Limited) was established in 2009, and it is a Hong Kong company that has obtained a money lender license under the Money Lenders Ordinance (Chapter 163 of the Laws of Hong Kong). Its parent company is Jiantao Group.

According to the announcement issued by the group in August 2023, Ever Credit Limited worked with it on December 1, 2021.Country GardenA financing agreement was concluded and a term loan of HK$ 1.88 billion was lent. At that time, both parties agreed to repay the loan by installments.

Country GardenThe debt amount of the Jiantao Group involved is very low in the overall interest-bearing liabilities abroad, and the radical action of a single creditor will not have a significant impact on the company’s security, normal operation and overall restructuring of overseas debts. "Country GardenAspect to interface news representation.

Insiders pointed out that,The petition for liquidation is the right of every creditor, and any creditor can apply for it, but the application does not mean that it will be liquidated.Referring to other cases of listed real estate enterprises in default in the industry, it is more common for individual creditors to apply to the Hong Kong court for company liquidation.

Since the liquidity crisis appeared in August last year,Country GardenA series of measures, such as salary reduction for senior executives, reducing administrative expenses and selling back domestic bonds, have been implemented to "save themselves" to alleviate the liquidity pressure at this stage.

In terms of debt handling, as of now,Country GardenNine domestic bond extensions have been completed, involving a total principal of about 14.7 billion yuan, and the maturity has been extended by three years as a whole. This isCountry GardenIn a short period of time, it eased some debt pressure.

In terms of overseas debt,Country GardenAt present, there are 15 public dollar bonds with a principal of about 9.3 billion US dollars. Last October,Country GardenAccording to the company, the company has started the restructuring of overseas debts, and hired CICC and Hualian Nuoji (China) as financial consultants to help assess the company’s capital structure and liquidity and formulate overall solutions.

From the strong power output to the introduction of more fashionable and internet-based configurations, we can see that Guangqi Honda is full of sincerity, and the arrival of the new Accord will inevitably stir up the mid-level car market.

Start with me and curb "super bacteria"

In recent years, reports about "superbug" are common. It is no longer just the concern of medical workers, but has become a global problem.

"Superbacteria" actually does not refer to a specific bacteria, but generally refers to those bacteria that show resistance to at least three kinds of commonly used antibacterial drugs in clinic. Its academic name is "multi-drug-resistant bacteria".

In the face of "superbugs", only by understanding their characteristics and transmission mechanism can we better slow down their production and curb their spread.

"past lives" of Multi-drug Resistant Bacteria

Penicillin was discovered by alexander fleming in 1928. This powerful "sharp weapon" for treating bacterial infections saved countless lives in World War II. However, with the widespread use of penicillin and other antibacterial drugs, the first superbug in history-methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus appeared, and then more and more superbugs appeared.

According to the report of China Bacterial Resistance Monitoring Network, the main clinical problem in China is Gram-negative bacilli which are resistant to carbapenems. The data in the first half of 2023 showed that the resistance rate of Acinetobacter baumannii to carbapenems was as high as 79.5%. These shocking data highlighted the seriousness of bacterial resistance in China.

In 2022, the authoritative medical magazine The Lancet published a survey of 204 countries and regions around the world in 2019. The study showed that antimicrobial resistance directly led to more than 1 million deaths, which even exceeded the number of people killed by malaria or HIV infection; The number of indirect deaths is even more alarming: nearly 5 million people. In 2016, the global research report on drug-resistant bacteria infection commissioned by the British government showed that by 2050, nearly 10 million people will lose their lives every year due to antimicrobial resistance.

Dr Margaret Chan, former Director-General of the World Health Organization, once pointed out that with the increasing and spreading of multidrug-resistant bacteria, common infection may once again become a fatal threat. This is not an alarmist. When human beings encounter the dilemma of no medicine available, even trivial wounds or respiratory infections may easily take their lives, and human beings will undoubtedly return to the dark period before the discovery of penicillin.

Why do drugs "fail" to bacteria?

Drug resistance of bacteria refers to the tolerance of bacteria to antibacterial drugs, which can be divided into congenital drug resistance and acquired drug resistance. Congenital drug resistance refers to the innate tolerance of bacteria to certain antibacterial drugs, which can be passed down from generation to generation; Acquired drug resistance means that bacteria "acquire" drug resistance genes due to spontaneous gene mutation or from other drug-resistant bacteria. Drug-resistant bacteria usually refer to acquired drug-resistant bacteria.

Drug resistance of bacteria is actually the result of natural selection in the process of evolution. In the process of its growth and reproduction, the reasons for promoting drug resistance involve many aspects, such as gene mutation or variation of bacteria, improper use of drugs and decreased immunity of the body, which may be the potential reasons for drug resistance.

The abuse of antibacterial drugs is an important factor leading to bacterial drug resistance. "Abuse" is mainly manifested in two aspects: unreasonable use in the treatment of human diseases and excessive and improper use in animal husbandry. Due to the selection pressure of antimicrobial agents, those bacteria with drug resistance will be naturally selected and multiply, thus accelerating the reproduction and spread of drug-resistant bacteria.

Multi-drug-resistant bacteria are mainly transmitted through contact, such as blood, sputum, urine or secretions of patients carrying multi-drug-resistant bacteria; Or contact with equipment, fabrics and pools contaminated by multi-drug resistant bacteria; For respiratory tract infection or colonization of multidrug-resistant bacteria can also be spread through droplets.

Antibacterials that have been "misunderstood"

The public’s understanding of antibacterial drugs is relatively limited, which leads to drug abuse becoming a common problem. There are 10 common misunderstandings in the use of antibacterial drugs, which need to be corrected as soon as possible:

1. Antibacterials are omnipotent anti-inflammatory drugs;

2. Do not distinguish the causes of colds, and use antibacterial drugs;

3. Antibacterials are the first choice for fever;

4. Diarrhea is inflammation, and it is best to use antibacterial drugs;

5. Broad-spectrum antibacterial drugs have stronger antibacterial ability, and the therapeutic effect is often better than narrow-spectrum antibacterial drugs for specific pathogens;

6. Newly listed and expensive antibacterial drugs are preferred;

7. The combination of multiple antimicrobial agents can effectively control infection;

8. It doesn’t matter if antibacterial drugs are frequently replaced;

9. Self-preventive use of antibacterial drugs during the high incidence of respiratory diseases in winter and spring.

10. The medication is not standardized, not enough, and the medication will be stopped if the symptoms improve slightly.

Abuse of antibacterial drugs will not only lead to bacterial resistance, but also lead to a series of serious adverse reactions, among which allergic reactions are particularly common, such as itchy skin, rash and other symptoms, and even life-threatening conditions such as anaphylactic shock may occur in severe cases; Some drugs may also cause nervous system symptoms, such as headache and dizziness. Some antibacterial drugs can also have toxic effects on hearing and kidneys; Abuse of antibacterial drugs will destroy the balance of flora in the body, which will cause a large number of inhibited bacteria to multiply and cause double infection.

Standardize drug use and prevent drug resistance

Remember 7 points.

1. Don’t buy drugs at will: Most antibacterial drugs belong to the category of prescription drugs. You must issue a doctor’s prescription when buying them, and you can’t buy them online or in a physical pharmacy at will.

2. Don’t choose your own medicine: When choosing which kind of antibacterial drugs to use, it should be judged by professional doctors according to the condition and clinical test results, not just by advertising or personal experience.

3. Do not use drugs at will: When using antibacterial drugs, we should follow the doctor’s advice to ensure that they are taken after professional diagnosis in the hospital, and do not blindly abuse drugs, especially for some daily ailments (such as colds), it is not appropriate to use antibacterial drugs easily.

4. Do not stop taking drugs without authorization: Once you use antibacterial drugs, you must follow the doctor’s instructions and take the drugs on time, according to the dosage and according to the course of treatment.

5. Pay attention to personal hygiene: frequent hand washing, more ventilation and avoiding close contact with patients are helpful to prevent infection.

6. Strengthen exercise: enhance physical fitness and immunity, and reduce the use of antibacterial drugs from the source.

7. Don’t throw drugs at will: expired drugs belong to harmful waste, so they should be thrown into the hazardous trash can to prevent criminals from recycling them. Garbage sorting, protect yourself and others.

The doctor concluded:

The increasingly serious problem of drug-resistant bacteria has become a major challenge in the field of global public health, which is attracting widespread attention from the medical community, government and society. In daily life, we should pay attention to developing healthy living habits, ensuring clean diet, actively exercising to enhance our immunity, and at the same time, we should follow scientific principles and standardize the use of antibacterial drugs. The whole society needs Qi Xin to work together to slow down the emergence of drug-resistant bacteria and curb its spread.

  Biden emphasized his experience in diplomacy and national defense in his speech. He said that after visiting Georgia, Iraq, Pakistan and Afghanistan, he found that the Bush administration’s policy was an "unfortunate failure", so Americans could not live like this for another four years.

He also compared Obama’s and Republican candidate John McCain’s policy views on Iraq, Afghanistan and Iran’s nuclear issues respectively, and pointed out that Obama’s judgment in foreign and security affairs is trustworthy and capable of safeguarding national security.
