Spotlight on the diagnosis of extrinsic allergic alveolitis (hypersensitivity pneumonitis) [PDF]
Repeated inhalative exposures to antigenic material from a variety of sources, mainly from moulds, thermophilic Actinomycetes, and avians, respectively, can induce immune responses with the clinical picture of extrinsic allergic alveolitis (EAA) or ...

Asthma in Patients With Confirmed Pulmonary Sarcoidosis. [PDF]
Pulmonary sarcoidosis and asthma can present identical symptoms, making clinical evaluation difficult if the two diseases overlap. Diagnostic challenges often lead to either overdiagnosis of asthma in patients with confirmed sarcoidosis or withholding appropriate asthma treatment.

Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Despite Severe Fusarium solani Infection in a Lung Transplanted Patient—A Case Report [PDF]
Solid-organ transplant patients require prolonged immunosuppression, increasing their risk of hematologic disorders. For these conditions, allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a potential treatment, but it carries significant risk

Protein kinase D1 in myeloid lineage cells contributes to the accumulation of CXCR3+CCR6+ nonconventional Th1 cells in the lungs and potentiates hypersensitivity pneumonitis caused by S. rectivirgula [PDF]
IntroductionHypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) is an extrinsic allergic alveolitis characterized by inflammation of the interstitium, bronchioles, and alveoli of the lung that leads to granuloma formation.
