Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.Machine perfusion is increasingly used to preserve donor kidneys. Theoretically, machine perfusion poses as a risk of contamination. We investigated perfusion samples. Our findings show that even though contamination of the perfusate does occur, this did not lead to infectious complications in the recipients.

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.Out of 274 lung transplant (LTx) patients, 89 (32%) developed invasive aspergillosis IA. Factors associated with IA were mycophenolate mofetil use, airway stenosis, Aspergillus cultured pre‐LTx, chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD), and acute rejection. The role of nebulized amphotericin B and statins for prevention of IA remains unclear. ABSTRACT

The Challenge of Bacterial Infections During Intensive Care Unit Stay After Heart Transplantation
Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.Abstract Background Infections occurring in the early post–heart transplant (HT) period heavily contribute to morbidity and mortality. Our goal is to evaluate the incidence of hospital‐acquired pneumonia/ventilator‐associated pneumonia (HAP/VAPs) and/or bloodstream infections (BSIs) after HT during the intensive care unit (ICU) stay and identify their ...

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 3, June 2025.This study assessed the distribution of fungal bioaerosols in tropical urban and peri‐urban environments. Using a six‐stage Andersen cascade impactor and a Bayesian neural network, fungal concentrations were predicted with an accuracy of 76.87%. It highlights the role of environmental factorsin fungal dispersion, associated respiratory risks, and ...
