Demographic and Comorbidity Associations With Disease Severity and Bony Dehiscence in AFRS
ABSTRACT Objective(s) The purpose of this study is to explore and describe possible demographic factors and comorbidities as they relate to disease severity of allergic fungal rhinosinusitis (AFRS) on initial presentation. Methods A retrospective review was conducted on 153 patients with AFRS seen at a tertiary care center. Demographics, comorbidities,

Pre-existing invasive fungal infection is not a contraindication for allogeneic HSCT for patients with hematologic malignancies: a CIBMTR study. [PDF]
Patients with prior invasive fungal infection (IFI) increasingly proceed to allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HSCT). However, little is known about the impact of prior IFI on survival.
