The Role of Nontuberculous Mycobacteria in Patients With Cystic Fibrosis Advanced Lung Disease

open access: yesTransplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
Among 270 cystic fibrosis patients, 20.7% were NTM‐positive and had a lower pre‐transplant risk of death or lung transplantation but higher post‐transplant mortality, with no difference in CLAD incidence. These results suggest NTM infection should not be an absolute contraindication to lung transplantation, though careful individual risk assessment is ...

Impact of Doxycycline Prophylaxis on Reducing Ureaplasma and Mycoplasma‐Related Complications in Lung Transplant Recipients

open access: yesTransplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
Doxycycline prophylaxis in lung transplant recipients was associated with reduced hyperammonemia syndrome and shorter ventilation, ICU, and hospital stays. These findings suggest that doxycycline prophylaxis may help prevent Ureaplasma/Mycoplasma‐related morbidity.

Endobronchial ultrasound: a minimally invasive technology to assist diagnosis of thoracic diseases

open access: yesEinstein (São Paulo)
The endobronchial ultrasound is a minimally invasive technique that simultaneously associates ultrasound and bronchoscopy, to visualize lung nodule or masses, airway wall, and structures adjacent to the tracheobronchial tree. Endobronchial ultrasound has

Lung Biopsies in Patients Referred for Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation: Diagnostic Accuracy, Diagnostic Yield, and Clinical Utility

open access: yesTransplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
Among patients referred for allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation with pulmonary opacities, lung biopsy provided a diagnosis in 72% of procedures and altered management in 51%. Despite a 7% major complication rate, lung biopsy frequently clarified noninfectious etiologies when bronchoscopy was inconclusive.

Outcomes of a Routine Screening Protocol to Prevent Metamycoplasma and Ureaplasma Infection in Lung Transplant Recipients

open access: yesTransplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
This study analyzed outcomes of an early Mollicute (Mycoplasma hominis and Ureaplasma spp.) screening protocol using BAL PCR with preemptive treatment and ammonia monitoring in lung transplant recipients. This appears to be a practical and reasonably effective approach for preventing early Mollicute infection and hyperammonemia syndrome.

An Update on Invasive Fungal Infections in Solid Organ Transplant Recipients

open access: yesTransplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Invasive fungal infections (IFI) remain a significant infection‐related complication in solid organ transplant recipients (SOTRs), the incidence of which has not changed overtime. With a focus on studies and data published after 2019, this narrative review provides an update on the epidemiology and prevention of IFIs in SOTRs and highlights ...

Evaluating the effects of a hospital utilisation improvement program on platelet transfusions: A pre‐post study

open access: yesTransfusion Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Annually millions of platelet concentrate (PC) are transfused worldwide. The decision regarding PC transfusion is often complex; therefore, the implementation of a hospital programme designed to streamline and facilitate the decision‐making process is beneficial. Such a programme helps standardise transfusion practices, ensures that

Bayesian Analysis of Postoperative Complication Risk Associated With Preoperative Exposure to Fine Particulate Matter: A Single‐Center Cohort Study

open access: yesActa Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, Volume 70, Issue 6, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Air pollution, especially particle pollution, is increasingly recognized as a potential perioperative risk factor, yet modeling environmental exposures in surgical cohorts remains methodologically underdeveloped. We demonstrate a Bayesian hierarchical framework to quantify probabilistic associations between preoperative fine ...
