Medical Mycology, 2000 Acute invasive aspergillosis (IA) is a devastating disease. Early diagnosis allowing an early treatment may improve the prognosis. However, this goal remains difficult to achieve. When diagnosis is confirmed it is often already too late. Galactomannan antigen detection and DNA detection are under clinical evaluation to improve early diagnosis and ...

American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care MedicineAbstract Cases of Invasive Pulmonary Aspergillosis(IPA) are typically associated with immunocompromised states but can be seen in immunocompetent patients with underlying lung disease or recent influenza infection. We present a case of bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL)-proven invasive IPA in an immunocompetent patient that was complicated ...

Clinical periodontal diagnosis
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Periodontal diseases include pathological conditions elicited by the presence of bacterial biofilms leading to a host response. In the diagnostic process, clinical signs such as bleeding on probing, development of periodontal pockets and gingival recessions, furcation involvement and presence of radiographic bone loss should be assessed prior ...

Invasive Pulmonary Aspergillosis
Journal of Fungi, 2023 Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis is growing in incidence, as patients at risk are growing in diversity. Outside the classical context of neutropenia, new risk factors are emerging or newly identified, such as new anticancer drugs, viral pneumonias and hepatic dysfunctions. Clinical signs remain unspecific in these populations and the diagnostic work-up

Pediatric Invasive Aspergillosis [PDF]
Journal of Fungi, 2016 Invasive aspergillosis (IA) is a disease of increasing importance in pediatrics due to growth of the immunocompromised populations at risk and improvements in long-term survival for many of these groups. While general principles of diagnosis and therapy apply similarly across the age spectrum, there are unique considerations for clinicians who care for
