Spotlight on the diagnosis of extrinsic allergic alveolitis (hypersensitivity pneumonitis). [PDF]
J Occup Med Toxicol, 2015 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 ...

Extrinsic allergic alveolitis [PDF]
Respirology, 2006 Abstract: Extrinsic allergic alveolitis (also known as hypersensitivity pneumonitis) is caused by repeated inhalation of mainly organic antigens by sensitized subjects. This induces a hypersensitivity response in the distal bronchioles and alveoli and subjects may present clinically with a variety of symptoms.

Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Despite Severe Fusarium solani Infection in a Lung Transplanted Patient—A Case Report [PDF]
MicroorganismsSolid-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
