Factors associated with invasive lung aspergillosis and the significance of positive aspergillus culture after liver transplantation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
From January 1981 to December 1990, 2180 patients underwent orthotopic liver transplantation at the University of Pittsburgh. Thirty-two patients (1.5%) were identified with invasive aspergillosis (29 lung, 2 intraabdominal, 1 meningitis). Of 29 patients

Invasive aspergillosis in an immunocompetent patient with fever and a cardiac mass

open access: yesInfectious Disease Reports, 2011
Invasive aspergillosis is an often fatal disease that usually occurs in immunocompromised patients. We report a case of invasive aspergillosis presenting as a febrile respiratory infection with a cardiac mass in an immunocompetent patient.

An intuitionistic approach to scoring DNA sequences against transcription factor binding site motifs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background: Transcription factors (TFs) control transcription by binding to specific regions of DNA called transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs). The identification of TFBSs is a crucial problem in computational biology and includes the subtask of ...

Demystifying fungal systematics: A gateway to fungal literacy and societal/ecological relevance through familiar species

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Fungal systematics can feel overwhelming given the vast species diversity within this kingdom, with numerous subgroups at every taxonomic rank. This often creates a disconnect between the undertsnidng of fungal taxonomic diversity and their societal relevance.

Contaminants of emerging concern in agricultural soils: Current understanding, overlooked issues, and future priorities

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) in agriculture represent a growing global challenge for food safety and public health. In this review, we synthesized evidence on how substances such as pharmaceuticals, microplastics, and per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) enter soils, accumulate in crops, and affect ecological and human health. We found
